J&S Fielke Lenswood Chardonnay 2023
$40.00The 2022 was, is amazing, the 2023 is even better. Stylistically the same, but with greater precision and mid palate weight. It’s rich, but in no way heavy, fleshy and juicy. Very complex, with citrus and stone fruits, white flowers, white chocolate, blood orange, buttered toast with honey, macadamia and a salty, sea tone. It’s […]

CRFT Arranmore Gruner Veltliner 2024
$30.00The signature Gruner Veltliner from CRFT, due to its layered flavours, textures and display of the variety’s multifaceted possibilities. Very complex aromatics of nougat, smoke, mushroom, tinned peach, pear, honeysuckle and spring jasmine. Incredible power and, as usual, great width across the palate. What’s interesting, and we haven’t seen this before in the Arranmore, is […]

J&S Fielke Piccadilly Valley Pinot Noir 2022
$40.00One of my favourite red wines of 2023, at a price point that is swamped by good but unexciting examples of pinot. Well, this is amazing. Ripe stewed red fruits of rhubarb, strawberry, cherry and cranberry, with a sweet and savoury spice element. Floral too, with lavender, violet and geranium. Open and beautifully proportioned, with […]

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, […]

Bondar Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2023
$38.00Intense aromatics of grapefruit, fresh and preserved lime, lemon, cashew, cream, wood, citrus blossom and spice. Rich and medium bodied, a wine of energy angles and cut. There’s a little more mid palate flesh than in previous iterations, and I’m not sure if it marks a shift in style or is a reflection of the […]

Gentle Folk Scary Gully Pinot Noir 2023
$65.00Amongst a very small group of producers who are able to combine sweet fruit, savoury flavours and tannins you can taste as much as you can feel. Super aromatic with mixed Middle Eastern spices, blackberry, dark cherry, sweet raspberry and mixed flowers of lavender, geranium and roses. Very savoury, elegant, controlled and European. Something Chianti […]

Iggy Adelaide Hills Rebula 2023
$45.00Ribolla Giolla in Italian, and certainly made as a homage to Friuli. From a cooler part of the Adelaide Hills, a triangle of 300 vines at the bottom of a slope otherwise planted to Syrah. 40% on skins for 2 months, yet there is nothing orange or skinsy about this. Generous and succulent with yellow […]

Racked to a mixture of French and […]

Gentle Folk Ashton Chardonnay 2023
$65.00From a tiny 0.8ha block, the vines rooted in clay, sandstone and quartz. It’s a perfect chardonnay site and as such is the most varied wine in any given vintage. One is never quite sure what to expect, except something wonderful from the team at Gentle Folk. The most expressive of the single vineyards with […]

Gentle Folk Scary Gully Chardonnay 2023
$65.00One of the great Adelaide Hills vineyards – a site that’s cool with rocky, shallow soils. Super vibrant and expressive with nectarine, white peach, grapefruit, smoky/flinty notes and white chocolate. Succulent, fleshy, focused and concentrated. Savoury spice hits you immediately and sits long on the palate, riding the stream of pulpy, silky texture and flow. […]

Murdoch Hill Artisan Series Apollo Pinot Noir 2022
$85.00The colour’s so pale, it’s hard to imagine the power, intensity and sheer presence that such a pretty wine can have. Very complex aromatics of tangy red fruits, cool hedge fruits, Chinese five spice, blood orange, savoury spice and wild herbs. Deep and concentrated, the tannins, skin and bunch are present to swirl, taste and […]

CRFT Arranmore Vineyard Chardonnay 2022
$50.00Matured seven months in French oak (45% new). A febrile, more tensile expression than its Blefari Vineyard sibling, yet with no sacrifice of flavour, nor any forage into the wilderness of hard reduction. A chiselled nose of white peach, nougatine, cashew and just the right amount of flint. The finish is long and contagious of […]

Ministry of Clouds Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2022
$40.00Very much in the contemporary mould of Australian chardonnay, the emphasis on freshness and intensity. Citrus, orchard fruits and white flowers, framed by expensive French oak. Coiled and compact with fleshy fruits, white flowers and savoury spice. Precise, linear and very intense. This would benefit from a few years in the cellar. Waters Wine Co […]

Dark cherries, plums […]

Iggy Forreston Adelaide Hills Syrah 2021
$50.00A great vintage in the Adelaide Hills. Extended skin contact and 2 years of maturation in seasoned French oak has enhanced the power and vibrancy of the vintage, weaving the long, long tannins with the pure, generous, ripe fruit. Tangy red fruits of sour cherry, plum and redcurrant mix with blueberry, blackberry, cola and baking […]

CRFT Blefari Vineyard Chardonnay 2022
$50.00Hand picked and wild fermented in tank before transfer to oak on full solids (35% new) where it remained for seven months. Very fine, as much by virtue of its relaxed mid-weighted gait, as its tension. Yet this is tension imparted by an intuitive hand, an innate comprehension that any effete obsession with pH and […]

J&S Fielke Piccadilly Valley Pinot Noir 2023
$40.00Full flavoured, pure and lucid, a pinot noir of detail and juxtaposition. All the Fielke wines have an extra dimension, so they don’t fit neatly into established, stylistic conceptions. Very aromatic, with lavender, violets, Asian spices, earthy notes and a compote of tangy red and hedge fruits. Medium bodied, on the one hand angular and […]

Ministry of Clouds Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2023
$45.00All fruit was handpicked then whole bunch pressed to a mixture of new and old barrels (35% new) with full solids included for wild ferment. Post fermentation, all barrels were topped and remained un-sulphured until we believed the balance of natural acidity and gentle MLF complexity had been achieved. No battonage was undertaken, but maturation […]

Frederick Stevenson Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$42.00100% Cabernet Sauvignon from 1960s planted vines situated in Vine Vale, Barossa Valley. Currently tended to by Wayne Ahrens and Suzie Hilder. The label, much like the wine, is a nostalgic throwback to some labels of old and features the heritage listed church that we use as our winery and sometimes cellar door – “Oddio” in […]
