Swinney Grenache 2023
$44.00Beautiful lifted fragrance of lavender, sarsaparilla, cola, sweet cherry, potpourri and blackberry. The finest and most ethereal release ever of this wine, yet utterly different from the pinot-esque examples emanating from McLaren Vale. Silky flow, framed by deft tannins; the sweet red summer fruits counter-pointed by savoury soy and autumn compost. Very long, drawn out […]

$30.00Gorgeously styled and expressed, showing black and purple fruit intensity, toasty oak, warm spice and dark chocolate notes on the nose, followed by a concentrated palate offering velvety texture and finely woven tannins. An abundance in delicious flavours within a properly structured frame. At its best: now to 2036. 95 points – Wine Orbit […]

Mesh Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$35.00Mesh is a collaboration between Yalumba’s Robert Hill Smith and Jeffrey Grosset, two of Australia’s greatest riesling producers. Typical of the vintage, the 2021 has that extra level of concentration. White flowers, mandarin oil, lemon zest and juicy ripe limes. Texturally, there is a chalky/salty mineral feel, that really lifts the finish. Precise, elegant, detailed […]

A Rodda Baxendale Whitlands Chardonnay 2022
$45.00The coolest and highest site, providing the most angular and obviously structured of the chardonnays. Reductive notes of struck match, green apple, white peach , grapefruit, sweetened condensed milk, citrus blossom and white flowers. Cool tasting, spicy and long. A wine of linear shape and great drive. Some chalky minerality on the close adding textural, […]

Pooley Pinot Noir 2023
$55.00The darkest and most hedonistic of the Pooley range with mixed black fruits, fennel, kirsch and bitter chocolate. Full bodied and polished, the fruit, so rich and fresh taking centre stage. Savoury notes of sweet and savoury spice, pepper, gamey notes, liquorice and fresh compost. Generous and gorgeous, the tannins rich but soft and the […]

Stargazer Tupelo White Blend 2024
$38.00One of our favourite white wines of 2024, of any style, from anywhere. A blend of Pinot Gris, Riesling, Pinot Blanc and Gewurztraminer. A nod to the blends of Alsace, a showcase of region, rather than of varietal. The Tupelo is to a degree an orange wine, and in that idiom it is the best […]

Medium bodied, elegant and gently fleshy with silky, persistent tannins to match. 95 Points – Halliday Wine Companion Complex cedar, spice and briar notes dominate the nose, […]

Walsh & Sons Roi Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$50.00From a vineyard planted in 1998 and only 170 dozen produced. This is a terrific follow up to the 2020, finer, sleeker and deeper. Classic Margaret River nose with blackcurrant, plum, blackberry, blueberry, cigar box and geraniums. High toned, with a refined intensity that is positively mouthwatering and succulent all at the same time. Terrific […]

Castle Rock Skywalk Riesling 2022
$25.00This is a wine that is always an impressive performer and represents top value for the asking price. Pretty scents of white flowers diffuse. Old school lemonade surges with a green apple drive. So fresh, there is a hint of cucumber in the midst too. Soft, talc feels roll out to a long and refreshing […]

Salo Chardonnay 2023
$50.00“From the Full Moon Vineyard in Gladysdale. Wild ferment and 100% mlf. There’s only one wine from winemakers and friends Steve Flamsteed and Dave Mackintosh, and it’s always a good ‘un. A bright green gold. There’s aromas of ripe stone fruits together with some savoury and complex briny notes. On the palate, this has lots […]

Tim Smith MGS 2022
$28.00The power of blends is clearly evident and this was for me my favorite wine in the Tim Smith line up. The different grapes have complemented each other beautifully. Rich, juicy, hedonistic, fragrant and savory, the Mataro adding smoke, compost and firm, grippy tannins. Controlled power, the shiraz still comes through strongly, a mass of […]

Stargazer Riesling 2023
$35.00A feinherb style that is at once richer and more tense than the 2022. Stunning aromatics of green mango, kiwi, star jasmine, pink grapefruit, lime, white cherry and blackcurrant. Stunning breadth, absolutely palate coating, focused, intense and mineral. The fruit is perfectly ripe, yet tangy, mouthwatering and so pristine, you’ll have to have another sip. […]

Gentle Folk Piccadilly Chardonnay 2023
$65.00An incredible contemporary Australian chardonnay, from the great Piccadilly vineyard. Bright, vivid and intense aromatics of lemon and limes, zest, juice and preserved, ruby grapefruit and mandarin blossom. Tense and coiled, eyewatering in its crispness and cut. Linear and concentrated, with some fleshy stone fruit buffeting the sides. No doubt time will see greater flesh […]

Gentle Folk Monomeith Pinot Noir 2023
$65.00Same winemaking as the Scary Gully Pinot Noir, with 20% whole bunches and 15% new oak. Elemental, angular and slippery, a totally different expression. Gorgeous aromatics of sweet and tangy red fruits, boysenberry, Five Spice, clove and fennel. A very Adelaide Hills expression. Medium bodied, lifted, with lovely tangy tones, the acidity a greater feature, […]

Pewsey Vale Vineyard Riesling 2023
$25.00One of Australia’s most consistent and best value whites. A great vintage for this wine too. Expressive and concentrated. Lemon, lime, white peach, start jasmine and sculptural acidity. Fleshy fruit, some zest and rind for texture and that Clare Valley zing. Drink over the next 20 years at least. Waters Wine Co Riesling sourced […]

Grosset Polish Hill Riesling 2023
$75.00Out of Stock
An 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. […]

Bicknell FC Applecross Pinot Noir 2022

A great expression of Yarra Valley pinot noir, with it’s intense aromas, precise structure, elevated fruit and spicy/flavor characteristics. Red fruit compote, dried flowers, star anise, hoisin and subtle oak. Bright and vibrant, yet with the structure, balance and length of flavor to age for […]

Ravensworth Estate Riesling 2021
$35.00The Estate Riesling is sourced from mostly 25-year-old vines grown on granite soils at 650 metres elevation. After approximately 24 hours on skins, the fruit was direct-pressed to two ceramic eggs for fermentation and a year-long élevage with lees. It was then racked to old foudre where it rested before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. […]

Farr Rising Chardonnay 2024
$60.00‘It’s a suggestion of a golden flash in the glass. That first interaction makes it pleasing and generous. The nose is faint yellow apple, something peppery, white chocolate, celery leaf, dried mango and baking spice. That sounds like an overreaction, but it’s what I got. Obviously, these are flashes, like a flickering light that begins […]

Grosset Alea Riesling 2024
$45.00Alea holds some additional sweetness as its canon. There’s an appealing and ultra-high drinkability here. Charm in spades. Floral scents of frangipani and lemon blossom with candied ginger, lime juice, just-ripe pineapple and tonic water. Similar to taste with a slipperiness to texture that feels well metered by the building crispness of the finish. More […]

Rob Hall Pinot Noir 2023
$30.00Mainly destemmed with a small amount of whole bunches. Matured, mainly, in seasoned hogheads and puncheons. A very light crimson. Fruit-forward aromas of gently poached red fruits, spices and light floral notes. The palate is similarly easygoing, with soft tannins rounding out an early-drinking, good-value Yarra pinot. 91 points – Halliday Wine Companion

Iggy Deda Barossa Valley Roussanne Marsanne 2022
$40.00The second release of this wine for us, the 2022 Deda is a composition of 79% Rousanne and 21% Marsanne. Fuller bodied than the 2021 on account of the greater proportion of Rousanne and warmer vintage conditions. Dark in colour and exotic with yellow peach, pawpaw, winter honey and pear. Rich, mouth-filling and creamy, Igor’s […]

Place of Changing Winds Syrah No. 2 2022
$40.00A blend of Heathcote and Harcourt fruit and supposedly the ‘entry’ level, but if can find a more beautiful and detailed Syrah at this price, let me know. The whole bunch component is high, 70%, and it’s there, with its silken texture, easy flow and sweet spice. Complex compote of hedge and red summer fruits, […]

Place of Changing Winds Harcourt Marsanne Roussanne 2022
$60.00Harcourt lies within the Bendigo G.I , but lies higher and cooler. Complexity from fruit to texture with notes of brioche, honeysuckle, yellow peach, citrus marmalade, lemon juice, zest, fresh hay, mint, sage and ginger. Full bodied, chiseled and succulent. Luxurious and fleshy, yet without fat or flab. Gloriously textured, controlled opulence and a linear, […]

Granite Hills 1971 Block Riesling 2022
$35.00Intense aromatics of passionfruit, lime, blackcurrant, cherry, stone fruits, honey, mustard and savoury spice. Dense, concentrated, in fact, perhaps the deepest core of power that I have tasted in an Australian Riesling. Expansive palate, direct in flavour, precise scaffold, chalky texture and that width! There is so much hidden here, so much pleasure to come. […]

Paralian Springs Hill Vineyard Shiraz 2022
$45.00“We Love Northern Rhone”, Skye Salter told me when tasting through their wines, and it shows, with notes of Charcuterie and coal dust. Otherwise it’s all McLaren Vale. Deep dark fruits, including blackcurrant, not often found in shiraz. Dark cherry, blackberry, violets, savoury spice, fresh compost, cured meats, pink peppercorn, soy, fennel and cardamon. Rich, […]
