Tiny volumes produced and hardly any made available for the Australian market. Pure pure, with fruit of English strawberry, cherry, cranberry, redcurrant, blueberry and blackcurrant. Lovely tension between the sweetness of fruit and the more savoury elements. There is a faint texture derived from the tannin and the Champagne’s naturally buoyant acidity, lends weight and […]

Saumaize-Michelin Vire-Cleese 2020
$60.00Tangy and zesty with citrus, grapefruit, white peach, jasmine and pear. A wine that ensures that you’re tasting the south, full flavoured and rich, but perhaps slightly more controlled and linear than the rest of the range. Yellow fruits begin to emerge on the palate, but are kept very much in check by the lavish […]

Moreau-Naudet Chablis Les Pargues Vieilles Vignes 2022
$110.00Diam. Les Pargues is a Chablis lieu-dit on a ridge between the Montmains and Vosgros Premiers Crus. It has the same exposure as Vaillons and Montmains, so it’s a handy site. The story goes that it was initially classified 1er Cru (pre-AOC) before being largely abandoned during the war when there was a labour shortage. This meant it missed out on the status it […]
