Bernard Baudry Chinon Blanc 2019
$55.00100% Chenin Blanc. Baudry’s rare Chinon Blanc hails from two small parcels: 0.8 hectares of vines behind the Château de Sonnay (these propagated with cuttings from the vineyards of Domaine Huet); and the eroded limestone of Le Clos Guillot. Vine age is in the 12 to 15 year ballpark. Matthieu Baudry naturally ferments the wine slowly […]

Mount Macleod Chardonnay 2021
$25.00It’s getting tough to come across delicious wines at around $25, but somehow, year in, year out, Mount Macleod manages it. Pulpy lime, grapefruit, lemon zest and white peach. Medium bodied, a little bit of cream and spice, some orange blossom too. Lovely texture, slightly gripping, that melts and finishes bright and zesty. Irresistible. Waters […]

Jonathan Didier Pabiot Pouilly Fumé Leon 2020
$70.00Leon is Jonathan Pabiot’s estate wine. Drawn from the region’s three main soil types of silex, caillottes and terres blanches. The vines are planted at 10,000 to the hectare, cropping a miserly 30 hl/ha. Now we enter the world of soil and climate. Aged in a mixture of stainless steel, oak and concrete, the choice […]

Thibaud Boudignon Anjou Blanc 2021
$100.00The Anjou Blanc is from old densely planted vines, rooted in shallow sand and schist soils. Aged for up to 18 months in 500L and Stockinger “cigar” barrels, 30% of which are new. This is certainly the estates signature style, if more approachable, fuller and rounder than the more aristocratic Savennieres. Clear, tender, transparent and […]

Jonathan Didier Pabiot Pouilly Fumé Elisa 2021
$60.00We should start with the Elisa (previously named Prelude), a blend of material from young vines across the 15 hectares of estate vineyards. This is the most overtly fruit driven and high toned, indeed closer to the cliched notion of Sauvignon Blanc. Stainless steel ageing for between 8 to 12 months has gifted a rich […]

Paul Prieur Sancerre Blanc 2020
$75.00Paul Prieur’s Sancerre Blanc comes from estate vineyards, composed of either silex or limestone and blended. But make no mistake; this “entry” level Sancerre is very serious indeed. Medium bodied, sleek, mineral and mouthwatering. White peach lemon, lemon zest, green apple and savoury spice. Tense and pulsating, without the textural pillow of the more expensive […]

Thibaud Boudignon Savennières Le Clos de Fremine 2021
$205.00Clos de Fremine is planted just below the winery, across the lane from Clos de la Hutte. The soil is sand over schist and what’s most surprising is how different the shape and structure is to Clos de la Hutte. Clos de Fremine is the most delicate, refined, lifted and floral with a structure of […]

Huet Vouvray Le Mont Sec 2021
$115.00“This 2021 Le Mont Sec fills the mouth with pear, pineapple, nectarine and violet flavors. There’s a sense of seduction and succulence through the middle of this wine. The flint and the coolness of the site seem to bring a sense of tension and purpose through this wine, which seduces you then spits you out. […]

Huet Vouvray Le Haut-Lieu Sec 2021
$90.00“This is a very fine, fragrant and floral Le Haut Lieu Sec. While delicate, the 2021 fills the mouth with a cloud of pure fruit reminiscent of violets, apple and nectarine skin. There’s a fine sinew that pulls the wine through on the finish. It can be approached in its youth but will go on […]

Thibaud Boudignon Rose de Loire 2022
$55.00Beautiful copper colour. Perfumed nose of blackcurrant violets, raspberry, saltbush and smoke. Deep, concentrated, mineral and savoury. Ruby grapefruit, firm snuffbox peach, fennel, sage and pulpy passionfruit. Very long finish, with a squeeze of that peach offering the faintest of texture and grip. A bright, clear and pure journey. Waters Wine Co Substantially Cabernet Franc […]

Thibaud Boudignon Savennières Clos de la Hutte 2020
$275.00”The 2020 Clos de la Hutte is a wine that makes your shoulders drop such is its tranquility and sense of comfort in your mouth. It blooms in the mouth and does so without any sense of heaviness. The finish, scented with flowers and nectarines, is long, fragrant and textural. I hate using the word […]

Jonathan Didier Pabiot Pouilly Fumé Luminance 2020
$110.00Luminance is crafted from vines with an average age of 50 years. Planted in Kimmeridgian limestone with an active lime content of over 70%. A high active lime content is a feature of the region, but at this level, the vines must work very hard indeed for nutrients and water. The vineyard is terraced, steep […]

Chateau d’Epire ‘Comtesse de Las Cases’ Savennieres Moelleux 2018
$65.00Comtesse de Las Cases is a semi-dry wine and a reminder of what Savennieres once was. Attacking with a charming sweetness and offering a fresh and mineral finish. Vinified in small, stainless steel tanks.
