Sailor Seeks Horse Chardonnay 2020
$60.002020 was a tiny vintage at Sailor Seeks Horse in the Huon Valley, yielding just 2 t/ha. But the long, cool growing season has produced wonderful Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Wines of elegance and finesse; structure and complexity. And very limited. “With high natural acidity we decided to put a few more of the […]

Bubb and Pooley Riesling 2022
$45.00Made in a feinherb style, well almost, as the sugar is barely noticeable due to the very high level of acidity. Lemons, limes, grapefruit green apple and salt. The citrus is of fresh juice, preserve and zest and as such, is quite linear in style. Mouthwatering and bracing, it will be fascinating to see how […]

CRFT Arranmore Vineyard Chardonnay 2021
$50.00A chardonnay lovers chardonnay, and with a twist that can only be defined as unique. There’s a subtle peach skin and flavour that kicks through on the finish. In no way is the wine skinsy or textural, but the hint of peach skin might easily be missed within the swirl of rich, interwoven flavours. Cashew, […]

CRFT K1 Gruner Veltliner 2022
$30.00It’s odd how different CRFT’s three wines are, all classic Gruner Veltliners, yet all entirely different. The K1 is cooler, more discreet, sleek and linear in shape, without the ample bosom of the Longview. Reticent aromatics take a little coaxing, before revealing white peach, melon, mint and apricot. Spicy, salty palate, very fine and sleek, […]

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 […]

Mac Forbes Yarra Valley Chardonnay 2022
$35.00Such an excellent value wine and classic Yarra Valley. Needed some time to open up, perhaps I tried it too cold? High tones all the way, with lime, lemon, pink grapefruit, gardenia and mandarin blossom. Mouthwatering and very tense, there’s a dimension of extract that tensions the bright acidity and tangy fruit. Very focused and […]

Salo Yarra Valley Chardonnay 2022
$50.00From the early 2000s-planted Full Moon vineyard in the Upper Yarra. Natural fermentation on full solids, and no lees stirring or mlf. At Salo, Dave Mackintosh and Steve Flamsteed only make one Yarra wine, and the 2022 is another ripper. From a low-yielding vintage, this is slightly more powerful than the 2021 and here you’ll […]

Pressing Matters R9 Riesling 2021

Apogee Deluxe Vintage Rose 2019
$80.00A fuller, fleshier, silky rendition of a sparkling rose, which suits me just fine. Lovely colour, with aromas of lavender, red summer fruit compote, ruby grapefruit and cherry pie. It’s built differently to the Deluxe Brut Vintage, being more linear, more tightly structured and less round in shape. Ripe fleshy red fruits are tensioned by […]

The bold and the beautiful. Sexy aromatics of spring jasmine, sunflower, pumpkin seed, citrus peel, breadcrumbs and mixed spice. So chardonnay, yet quixotic.

Tyrrell’s Vat 1 Semillon 2016
$90.00Sensual and suave, with flavours I haven’t found in a Vat 1 before. Just when I thought I knew what to expect! Preserved lime, fresh lemon, cream, kiwifruit, gardenia and honeysuckle.

Gembrook Hill Blanc de Blancs 2017

Aromas of poached pear, white peach, orange zest, lightly toasted nuts and a little candied ginger. As always with this cuvée, there’s rapier-like acidity, but this is more […]

Gentle Folk Village Chardonnay 2022
$45.00A blend of Piccadilly, Ashton and Scary Gully vineyards, though quite different from the single vineyard wines. It’s lighter for a start, at least in body, but it’s packed with lemon, lime preserve, grapefruit, gin herbs and pithy extract. There’s a saline, oyster shell quality and a touch of lanolin, a strange weave of elements […]

Ossa Gruner Veltliner 2022
$60.00According to Ossa, their Gruner Veltliner makes up a very small proportion of their Belbrook vineyard, but after tasting this I wish it were more. Essence of Gruner with green mango, lychee, pawpaw, lavender honey, spring jasmine and nectarine. Rich and full bodied, unctious, slightly textural with yellow fruits, savoury spice Vietnamese mint and cream. […]

Rieslingfreak No 4 Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$25.00Classic Eden Valley dried wildflower aromas, pot-pourri, not as dry as the Polish but close. There is high, rapier-like acidity but it avoids tartness. Very lively but soft and with generous fruit, which gives it remarkable approachability—the most up-front of this maker’s ’23s—although it’s obviously going to age well.
