Fighting Gully Road Chardonnay 2024
$50.00Twelve months in 300L French Tronçais barrels followed by three months on lees in tank before bottling. Chardonnay, the undoubted strength of Beechworth, was one of the first fruits picked in the ’24 vintage at FGR, retaining sensational, energised acidity while keeping a pretty tight flavour profile. Spring blossom aromatics mingle with tangy citrus and […]

Standish Wine Co The Standish 2021
$135.00Very deep colour and remarkably vivid considering the presumably long period in wood. There is bright purple towards the rim, fading from the deep blackness of the core, suggesting the inclusion of whole bunches. Intense aromatics, florals, black fruits, sweet and savoury spice. It’s not overly complex at present but the flavours are utterly captivating […]

Salo Chardonnay 2024
$50.00Aromatically, the wine is immediately engaging: citrus at the fore, layered with subtle nutty, toasty notes and a hint of nougat. The palate is tight and fresh on entry, then gently unfurls, revealing a beautifully mouth-watering texture. It carries through to a finish that is both bright and savoury, with impressive tension and finely tuned […]

Curator Wine Co Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
$32.00Barossa Valley Cabernet is one of our great underrated wine styles. Curator’s effort is very cabernet and, as it should be, very Barossa. Deep and vibrant colour, with soaring, glorious aromatics of black fruits, lavender and wood spice. Full bodied, full of vigour and strength, with savoury herbs, liquorice, campfire, crème de cassis, dark cherry, […]

CRFT Arranmore Gruner Veltliner 2025
$30.00CRFT’s signature Grüner Veltliner, capturing the variety’s layered complexity and textural depth. Aromatics are vivid and intricate – nougat, smoke and mushroom alongside peach, pear, honeysuckle and jasmine. Powerful yet tightly coiled, this release shows a more compact, tensile structure than previous Arranmore expressions. The palate is silky and creamy, with notes of clove, aniseed, […]

Paralian Marmont Vineyard Grenache 2024
$45.00Pale in the glass and engagingly savoury, feeling a little less up-front fruitful than the ’23 at the same stage, but certainly no less for it. More, perhaps. This is savoury, with pressed flowers, dried cranberry, damson and macerated cherries, warm stone, whole spices – fennel seed, clove, cardamom – and a little blood orange […]

Bondar Rose 2025
$26.00Now all home Rayner vineyard fruit, with grenache (90%) off vines planted in 1970, with some from ’19 and ’17. The other 10% is an even split of cinsault and mataro, with the latter seeing older oak. This is as good as any rosé from this address, and that’s saying a lot, with the bar […]

Domaine Naturaliste Rebus Cabernet Sauvignon 2024
$35.00Perfect cabernet sauvignon. Perfect. If you ever doubted the deliciousness of cabernet, you need to try this wine. Very complex, yet sooo cabernet, with blackcurrant, violets, raspberry, hedge fruits, spicy oak and tobacco. Richly flavoured, layered and intense, with a chewy savouriness, juicy mid palate and gorgeous food loving tannins. Very fresh, the wine’s natural […]

By Farr GC Chardonnay 2024
$170.00The GC Chardonnay (GC – Gary Charles) is attributed to all the knowledge we have been able to extract from Gary to create a close planted / high density planting of chardonnay on an exposed côte. These hillsides facing North, North East and East will be the backbone of the Farr dynasty for decades to come. They […]

$60.00From a single vineyard in Yellingbo in the Upper Yarra; 20% whole bunches, 20% new oak. Medium bright crimson. Fragrant and spicy aromas of red and black fruits, rose bush and a touch of allspice. The fruit has thoroughly swallowed up the oak. Medium bodied, with excellent depth and very persistent, fine-grained tannins. Finishes long. […]

$65.00Excellent, fitting the mold of sleek, stylish yet powerful chardonnays that have captivated the chardonnay lovers’ community. Flinty with reductive notes, showing struck match, kaffir limes, sea spray, grapefruit and apple blossoms. The palate is taut and refined with a generous fruit profile. So distinctive and impressive.

Mercer Pinot Grigio 2026
$28.00Pinot Grigio is the perfect session wine, and Aaron Mercer has made a beaut from an organic vineyard in Orange. Tangy and fresh, and like all of his whites, plenty of body and fleshy fruit. To have with food, or to not is the question, either is the answer. Gardenia, lemon, lime, cream and almond […]

Fighting Gully Road Sangiovese 2024
$35.00Medium-bodied, with plush, fine-grained tannins that linger. Brambly dark berries, sour cherry and plum lead, with nuances of dried herbs, raspberry and earthy savouriness. Mouthwatering and beautifully composed. “Mark Walpole loves sangiovese and the feeling is reciprocated. This is a mighty strong follow-up to the ’23, fairly bristling in cherry-fruited and aromatic brightness and […]

Leeuwin Estate Art Series Chardonnay 2021
$150.00Light straw colour with a reserved lemon/grapefruit aroma, fresh and penetrating, the palate brisk and bright with vibrant acidity and intense grapefruit/lemon flavours that persist the full length of the very long palate. Superb vitality and balance. It promises to reward cellaring too. Tremendously concentrated and compact, with extreme drive and massive persistence, it positively […]

Rob Hall Cabernets 2024
$30.00A blend of 55/43/2% cabernet sauvignon/merlot/malbec. 16–20 days on skins and matured in seasoned hogsheads. A bright, medium crimson red. Another very well-made, ridiculously priced cabernet blend from Rob Hall. Aromas of cassis, cedar and a touch of violets lead onto the medium-bodied, well-balanced and already delicious palate. Drink by 2031. 95 Points – Philip […]

Vanguardist Grenache 2023
$70.00“Vanguardist-farmed Rende vineyard bush vines, around 55 years old; 60% whole bunch, with about seven weeks on skins; matured in 2200L Slavonian oak. The cool vintage has its say. Refined, fragrant and elegant, but savoury and spicy, too. Distinct nebbiolo/nerello mascalese riffs, more the latter – an increasing theme at this address. Dried cranberry and […]

Bulman Gary’s Vineyard Grenache 2024
$75.00“From the Springs Hill vineyard in Blewitt Springs, with the ’07-planted grenache grown by Gary Whaite. Pale in the glass, this is less effusively spicy than the ’23, somewhat coiled, but with more power behind it. A story of vintage. Power is misleading, though, as this is just so refined, rolling through sour red cherries, […]

Dr Edge Tasmania Pinot Noir 2024
$58.00Peter Dredge is the very model of the modern major winemaker. Classically trained, technically strong, he has the solid foundations required to push things, as he punningly promises on the label, to the edge. Without the disciplined fruit sourcing, the commitment to keeping multiple parcels separate through fermentation and the finely tuned skill to blend […]

Gembrook Hill Village Pinot Noir 2025
$38.00A taste of Gembrook Hill’s quality and style, though not from their vineyards. Classic Yarra Valley Pinot notes of English strawberry, raspberry, poached plum, violets and a hint of fresh compost. The aromatics are incisive and vibrant, with vivid, translucent fruit. Medium to full-bodied, it’s plush and pillowy, with more depth and weight than expected – […]

Wild Duck Creek Reserve Shiraz 2018
$140.00Almost black with a dark purple hue, yet the wine is bright, rich and seductive. 5% whole bunch here, adding a vibrant lift from the glass. The nose is all black pastel, charcoal, spice and red fruit compote. The palate has a wonderful electricity about it, with beautiful acids and a smooth finish. It’s full […]

Tillie J Aligote 2025
$42.00Aligote has become trendy, presumably because in Burgundy at least, it’s hard to tell the difference with chardonnay and they are invariably cheaper. Ironically, I find it’s more varietal in Australia, being more linear than chardonnay and fine boned. Tillie J’s is remarkable, a shock really, it’s just so damn good and such good value! […]

Standish Wine Co The Relic 2022
$140.00The 2022 The Relic Shiraz-Viognier contains 2% Viognier skins, and this addition presents in this vintage as a core of raspberry and pomegranate. It is pure fruited and powerfully aromatic, as this cuvee always is. Interestingly, I am tasting this wine from two different glasses: one opened two days ago, one opened this morning. They […]

By Farr Sangreal Pinot Noir 2024
$140.00An older vineyard than the Farrside, planted in 1994 and, for me, the Farr’s most unique expression of pinot noir. The long even vintage has yielded a wine of spotless cut, with the colours and profiles of the four seasons. Never has it been more immediate and impudent, it’s so pinot, but no other pinot […]

Dr Edge Brut Nature NV
$50.00Very light yellow/straw colour with freshness and some aged complexities introducing a toasty element. The wine is very dry and rich, complex and deep, with incisive lemon, verbena/herbal and lightly toasty flavours of balance and charm. Appetising and high-energy. Long, refreshing finish. A very smart non-vintage wine. 95 Points, Huon Hooke – The Real Review […]
