Haddow and Dineen Sehnsucht Riesling 2024
$45.00Always a lovely wine to taste, opening with pear, melon, citrus blossom, spring jasmine, lime, ripe lemon and subtle buttery/pastry notes. A wine of dimensions, the textural element a caress, but it also enables the wine to hold and enfold your palate. Juicy and unctuous, there is, however, an overwhelming sense of control and precision, […]

Tyrrell’s Blanc de Blancs 2016
$65.00The wine world, like any other, is faddish and if you were to think of sparkling wine, any sparkling wine, the Hunter valley would be pretty far down the list, if not at all. But Tyrrell’s can always be relied upon to make at the very least, ‘good’ wine and some the greatest of all. […]

Joshua Cooper Pinot Noir 2024
$50.00The Early Release wines of Josh Cooper are obviously less expensive and are supposedly an introduction to the range. The pinot noir however, along with all the range, is pretty darn serious stuff, in this case coming off the fabled Doug’s vineyard. Lovely aromatics, pretty, floral, with raspberry, rhubarb, poached plum, tangy redcurrant, blood orange […]

Jasper Hill Georgia’s Paddock Nebbiolo 2023
$70.00From 1993 plantings in Georgia’s Paddock. A tiny production wine of great singularity and classicism, it’s hard to imagine such a fine nebbiolo coming from such an inhospitable a place as Heathcote. Fragrant with a compote of red fruits and sweet and savoury spice. Intense, with a wonderful attack of tannin, fruit and acid. The […]

Sailor Seeks Horse Huldufolk Pinot Noir 2023
$130.00Perhaps the most idiosyncratic wine in the Sailor Seeks Horse stable, emanating from a single clone, 115, and aged in wood for longer and a higher percentage new, 40 . The most reticent, the oak gripping for now, but patience required, patience given. Time in the glass reveals reductive notes of flint, smoke and tar, […]

Sailor Seeks Horse Dijon Clone Pinot Noir 2023
$90.00The two Dijon clones of 114 and 777, so favoured by Gilli and Paul. Clones are mumbo jumbo to me, but there’s no mistaking the unique nature of this wine. Savoury comes to mind, and a certain discretion; it certainly doesn’t jump out of the glass the way the estate wine does. Brooding and gentle […]

Jane Eyre Shoreham Park Pinot Noir 2023
$95.00From a single vineyard planted in the late ’90s; native-yeast ferment with 20% whole bunches; matured in French oak (10% new) for 10 months. The whole bunch adds a crackling component here, an autumnal rustle, which is suffused with fruit as the wine is buoyed with air, redcurrant and wild red cherry unfurling. Carraway, rhubarb, […]

Stargazer Palisander Riesling 2023
$50.00“Shiny and bright lemon hue. Dried mango, cumquat, and wattle blossom aromatics. Powerful and intense, mango fruit with cumquat and lemon balm notes with a wonderful gliding texture. It has such power that is perfectly balanced by fine yet driven acidity that builds great length and ensures clarity at the finish.” 96 points – Stuart […]

Sailor Seeks Horse Small Wonder Pinot Noir 2023
$55.00A sense of effortless calm descends from any glass from the Sailor Seeks Horse duo. Intensely aromatic with sweet red summer fruits, tangy hedge fruits, potpourri and savoury spice. Mid weight and supple, yet there is a concentration and persistence that belies the gentle colour and cool drinkability. Firmness, just the right squeeze of skin […]

Sailor Seeks Horse Small Wonder Chardonnay 2023
$55.00A fantastic vintage for this wine, 2023 delivering the goods across the entire island. The Small Wonder wines tend towards the contemporary, balanced with an abundant, fleshy mid-palate. Cool and tangy citrus, citrus blossom, some green mango and white peach. Super intense and focused; the acidity in lock-step with a touch of mouthwatering phenolics. Such […]

Pooley Pinot Noir 2024
$55.00Aged in French oak for only 8 months, capturing the freshness and intensity of the fruit. Sweet and tangy red fruits of raspberry, cherry and cranberry, blueberry, violets and savoury spice. Medium bodied, intense, lithe and athletic, the oak having virtually no impact on the flavour of the wine. Precise, opulent and focused, with firm, […]

Pooley Chardonnay 2024
$55.00One of Tasmania’s most consistent producers, Pooley’s estate chardonnay and pinot noir are as excellent as usual in 2024. This sits very much in the contemporary sphere – aged in barrel and concrete for only 6 months before bottling. Incredibly intense and primal, with an energy and vigorousness almost unmatched in Australian wine. Tangy citrus, […]

Reed Knowing Riesling 2024
$65.00On the nose this wine reminds me why I love Riesling so much, I feel smacked in the face by the crushed rock and marl limestone that I have trampled on for the last few years. Great Riesling speaks soil truth so well when the relationship between vine and maker lets it shine through the […]

Pressing Matters R69 Riesling 2022
$42.00Pale green-yellow hue; a lifted perfume of honey, lime and lemon blossoms and the palate is rich and yet super-fine, the sweetness balancing out what is surely quite high acidity. The end result is gorgeous flavour and fruit/sugar/acid balance. The persistent honey note suggests the grapes were fully ripe. The finish is clean and harmonious. […]

Dappled Single Vineyard Fin de la Terre Syrah 2023
$50.00Sourced from the Peirce Family vineyard in Steels Creek at the base of the Kinglake range. It’s a warm site with hungry mudstone and shale soils with a granitic bedrock base and some scattered quartz. The vines are own rooted and planted in 1990 – so now 34 years old! A very late pick and […]

Stanton & Killeen Rutherglen Muscat NV (500ml)
$25.00Absolutely gorgeous and one of the most complex and singular Muscats coming out of the Rutherglen. Floral, ginger, nougat and sweetened condensed milk. Structured and vibrant, with baking spices, becoming more savoury and firming towards the close. Rippling with tingle and begging for food. Waters Wine Co Rich sticky raisin characteristics, ginger, orange peel […]

Stanton & Killeen Rutherglen Topaque NV (500ml)
$25.00Such a different expression. Topaque’s usually play second fiddle to Muscat, but that should definitely not be the case. Very complex and layered with a lovely tension between the sweet and savoury elements. Florals, honeycomb, salted caramel, grilled nuts, sultanas and savoury spice. It’s somehow lighter than the Muscat, yet shows more vivacity and stuffing. […]

Stanton & Killeen Vintage Fortified 2007
$85.00Australia’s most convincing Vintage Port style wine. Utterly consistent and repeated tastings of back vintages have left me in no doubt. Will they go 50, or a hundred, or more? The last vintage from Chris Killeen and one that will live on for at least another couple of decades. Rich, deep and concentrated, showing great […]

Eastern Peake 1989 Block Pinot Noir 2022
$125.00The colour is deep and bright with a strong purple rim and the bouquet is quite marked by char-oak and dark-berry/dark-cherry fruit aromas, bold and bright. The oak gives a distinct smoky, fivespice note throughout the wine, which has a lovely silky mouth-feel and a very long, sustained and seamless carry. Marvellous focus and precision […]
