Holly’s Garden Pinot Gris 2022
$30.00Stunning contemporary pinot gris. Pear, apple, honeysuckle, apricot and savoury spice. Medium bodied, but packed with presence and flavour, I love that this has not been taken too far. There’s a feeling of restraint despite the abundance. Some creamy notes, custard almost, that reminds me of apple pie, with some rhubarb thrown in for good […]

Patrick Sullivan Chardonnay 2023
$29.00Out of Stock
Patrick Sullivan has wanted to make an entry-level wine for some time, one that would fit in with his Gippsland stable; he looked to the Limestone Coast because of the volcanic soils and quality of groundwater, so fruit from Mount Gambier and Coonawarra. It’s a lovely wine, gentle yet persuasive, with a wave of white […]

Polperro Estate Pinot Gris 2024
$45.00When most of us think of the Mornington Peninsula, we think of pinot noir and chardonnay. Pinot Gris/grigio should be added to the list, the best in Australia comes from here. Think Quealy, think Polperro. I wouldn’t normally “love” a pinot gris from anywhere, but this is stunning. Pear, smoke, mushroom, kiwi fruit, white peach, […]

Swinney Grenache 2023

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 […]
