Cantina D’Arcy Langhe Nebbiolo 2022

Stonegarden Shiraz 2021
$80.00Out of Stock
I’m not sure it’s possible to produce anything but an excellent wine off the Stonegarden vineyard and the 2021 is certainly one of the best. Could this be anything other than Barossa Shiraz? One of the world’s most evocative wines, and it doesn’t seem to matter who it’s made by, the strength of Barossa Valley […]

Domenica Chardonnay 2023
$55.00Out of Stock
‘A very fine chardonnay, without quite the precision, detail and tension that I recall from other years. Stone fruit, flint, lanolin, porcini and that regional tattoo of glazed quince. Quinine bitterness at the finale. Mid-weighted and nicely nervous in the mouth, while suitably open-knit enough to breach already. Fine. Drink or hold. Screw cap.’ 95 Points […]

Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Chenin Blanc 2022
$25.00The grapes for this wine come predominantly from selected vineyards in Stellenbosch, Paarl and Swartland. Owing to the nature of bush vines, careful canopy management was exercised so that no bunches were exposed to excessive sunlight and that an even ripening of the grapes was ensured. The 2022 harvest started very late due to covld […]

Pipan Steel Tesoro Nebbiolo 2018
$55.00Tasted alongside the 2017, the 2018 vintage is warmer and drier, and so fuller, with a slightly darker fruit profile and pronounced structure. Gorgeous aromatics of cola, aniseed, cassis, rose, geranium, bitumen and savoury spice. Rich and full flavoured, but in no way heavy and the overall impression is one of translucence and purity. Round […]

Crawford River Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
$70.00Bright ruby. Opens with a core of pure blackcurrant cabernet fruit together with scents of cedar, violets and a very gentle leafiness.

Pressing Matters R9 Riesling 2022
$42.00I love the ‘R’ designations on the Pressing Matters rieslings. From R0 for bone-dry to R139 for sweet, they are an indication of the RS in the wine. The R9, in theory, should teeter on that fulcrum between dry and off-dry, but that crystalline Tasmanian acidity tempers any sweetness and it appears dry. And totally […]

Valenciso Rioja Reserva 2018
$70.00The most sweetly fruited of traditional Rioja, with rich cassis, raspberry, morello cherry, sweet vanilla, sandalwood and oiled leather. The oak is perfectly integrated, so often it’s raw in traditional Rioja upon release, but not here. Flavours folded, glistening, melting tannins ever present, that soften towards the close. It’s very hard to resist now, so […]
