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 […]

Tyrrell’s Hunter Valley Chardonnay 2022
$25.00Tyrrell’s Hunter Valley Chardonnay has a lovely mix of citrus, white stone fruit and notes of star jasmine, with some oak spice on the nose. Medium bodied palate with great fruit intensity and texture. 2021 is a terrific vintage in the Hunter and this is surely the best value Chardonnay in the Valley! Waters Wine […]

CRFT Blefari Vineyard Chardonnay 2021
$50.00Along with the Arranmore, the Blefari is at the pinnacle of Adelaide Hills Chardonnay. Lifted aromatics, cooler than the Arranmore, with lemons and limes, grapefruit, flint, green apple and pastry notes. Tight, coiled and intense with spice notes, sleek textured, searing acidity and strong notes of sage and bergamot. Green mango brings it all together […]

MMAD Chenin Blanc 2022
$45.00The second release of this wine sees more depth and texture, reflecting an evolution of making after winemaker Adam Wadewitz got the measure of grape and site – on Maslin sands over ironstone. There’s chew and race in equal measure, with tart golden apples, ripe Meyer lemon, cool stone fruit, sea spray and savoury elements […]

Pressing Matters R9 Riesling 2021
$40.00A touch of residual sugar does marvellous things in lifting the exoticism of orange-blossom fragrance, tying down unwieldy, cool-season acidity and drawing out magnificent persistence. A compelling core of crunchy Granny Smith apple and pitch-perfect lime and lemon are charged with tremendous stamina. 94 points – Tyson Stelzer, Halliday Wine Companion Shop all Dessert wines […]

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 […]

Ossa Gruner Veltliner 2022
$60.00Out of Stock
According 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. […]

Pewsey Vale Vineyard Contours Riesling 2016
$40.00One of the best Pewsey Vale Contours yet, the 2016 Riesling characterises both the power and the elegance of the year. There is real weight and amplitude, with a salty/chalky texture, citrus, frangipani, mandarin oil and camphor. Lots of detail and precision and with all its complexity, remarkably easy to drink! Many years ahead of […]

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. Subtle and very young. This seems quite open, but I feel this will shut down soon and be the better for it. A wonderful […]

Battles Burnside Chardonnay 2022
$80.00If Lance Parkin can’t produce excellent chardonnay, then there’s something amiss. He’s a bit of a white burgundy buff and tasting great wine helps in many ways on the local front. This is exceptional. Tight, linear and pure with a certain elegance throughout. Everything is lightly applied: the spicy oak, the citrus tones, the millefeuille […]

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 […]

Gilbert Chardonnay 2022
$35.00Succulent, pulpy, deep and concentrated, and still maintaining freshness. Bright and vivid flavours of ripe citrus, passionfruit, blackcurrant, yellow peach, apricot, grapefruit and rockmelon. Weight and texture, you really feel like you’re getting something substantial and despite having all the hallmarks of the varietal, utterly delicious for those who preference something else. One of the […]

Apogee Deluxe Vintage Brut 2020
$70.00Lovely, clear colour, somewhere between sunflower yellow and gold. Wafting aromatics, I almost wish I had a white wine glass, rather than a Champagne flute, to capture the spilling complexity. Hazelnut, honey, stewed apple, spring jasmine, cherry, gingernut biscuit and lime. Rich and full bodied, buoyed by frothing freshness, a marvelous combination of weight, power […]

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. (A blend of Eden Valley vineyards. […]

Juxtaposed Fiano 2022
$32.00Intense aromatics of lemon sorbet, fresh herbs, pear, lime marmalade and white bread. Succulent, juicy, tangy and slightly textural, with savoury spice, fig, tarragon and bergamot. Delightfully different, with a round shape, great acid line and chalky/salty finish. Waters Wine Co I’ve been following this winery for a time now and enjoying the experience. […]

Stargazer Chardonnay 2022
$65.00Higher toned and more angular than the 2021, the 2022 is wider and less round in shape. Bright and bracing, yellow peach, white peach, grapefruit, citrus, white flowers, wood spice, pastry and cashew. Intense, very linear, driven, compact and generous. Bracing acidity and great cut, a chardonnay of both volume and cut. Anyone familiar with […]

Patrick Sullivan Black Sands Chardonnay 2022
$50.00Light-medium straw colour; aromas of poached peach, melon skin, a note of freshly sliced almond. Citron also. The wine is broad and concentrated in the front of the mouth, the finish dropping away just a little early, and leaving a faintly bitter echo from phenolics. Possibly some skin ferment? A left-field style, and pretty smart […]

Mercer Limited Release Semillon 2022
$40.00Very expressive with lime, butter, nettles, lemons, gardenia and grapefruit. This is very, very easy to drink. Plush and full, with incredible mid-palate flesh and lanolin texture. Pulp, round in shape, without ever losing focus or line. When tasting, very similar to Tyrrells’ Johnno’s Basket Pressed Semillon, and I understand the winemaking is very similar. […]

Bicknell FC Applecross Chardonnay 2021
$55.00From a 330m elevation vineyard in the Upper Yarra. Whole-bunched pressed to older puncheons. Natural fermentation and no mlf. A touch riper and more concentrated than last year’s version. Aromas of red apples and just-ripened orchard fruits with a little flint. Fans out nicely on the palate. Gently savoury and with a touch of grip […]

Onannon Mornington Peninsula Chardonnay 2021

Full bodied, round in shape, with cream, cashew, grapefruit, white peach, jasmine and green apple. So much amplitude, covering the mouth, and squeezing its way into every part of the palate. Chiselled fresh, tight, coiled and chewy. Flavour […]

Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2023
$79.00An outstanding release of this vaunted wine. It’s intense, it’s racy, it’s complex and nuanced in its fruit, spice, mineral and subtle savoury elements, all of it woven into an extremely persistent and poised textural experience. There’s stacks of flavour in all this, yet held within a tensile thrust of raciness and faint chalky pucker. […]
