Iggy H&C Eden Valley Syrah 2021
$75.00From 2 vineyards in 2021, after to a “miscommunication” with another vigneron left Iggy stranded without even a barrel worth of fruit. A vintage that has yielded many great wines, and the H&C is the first wine he has made with 100% whole bunch. Igor used the time old method of tasting the stalks, before […]

David Moreau Santenay Beauregard 1er Cru 2022
$160.00The 2022 Santenay Beauregard ler Cru comes from vines located at a higher altitude, above the windmill overlooking the namesake village on clayey marn soils. This feels quite complex, with raspberry, blackberry and briar scents on the nose and a touch of white pepper and licorice (Moreau dubs it his “little Syrah”). The medium-bodied palate […]

Moreau-Naudet Chablis 1er Cru Forets 2022
$145.00Diam. Stéphane Moreau used to call Forêts “one of the greatest terroirs of Chablis”. It’s a historical sub-plot within the 1er Cru Montmains, high up the slope and facing southeast. It can undoubtedly produce Chablis of the highest order, as both Dauvissat and Moreau have shown many times (Raveneau also has a small parcel). Moreau farms two plots of vines here, with a total […]

Fletcher Barbaresco Roncaglie Cru 2021
$175.00In 2019 David was granted the right to bottle under the Roncaglie cru as opposed to Barbaresco DOCG. David explains that the plot he sources from in Roncaglie is South West facing, a little more shaded so longer hang time & more ferrous soils = Dark fruits, more masculine tannin. Roncaglie is one of the […]

$55.00From a single vineyard sitting at 845m elevation on a northeast aspect. Makrut lime leaves, lemon-lime cordial, candied green apple and dried hay. A slip ‘n slide of succulent acidity followed by sunflower kernel, silver needle tea and a woven fabric of texture. This is only beginning to hit its stride with baked clay minerality, […]

Jonathan Didier Pabiot Pouilly Fumé Luminance 2020
$110.00Luminance is crafted from vines with an average age of 50 years. Planted in Kimmeridgian limestone with an active lime content of over 70%. A high active lime content is a feature of the region, but at this level, the vines must work very hard indeed for nutrients and water. The vineyard is terraced, steep […]

Sylvain Pataille Marsannay La Charme Aux Pretres 2019
$235.00Out of Stock
Outstanding. Top Value. This is also decidedly restrained and offers only glimpses of the spiced citrus peel and green apple aromas. The rich, full-bodied and intense medium weight flavors are at once caressing yet powerful on the impressively long and saline-suffused finish. This too is very good for its level. 88-91 points, Allen Meadows, Burghound […]

Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Kabinett 2019 (1.5L)
$145.00Very clear and flinty on the still reductive yet very precise and spring-like nose. Juicy and light on the palate, this is an intense, fruity, salty- piquant and stimulating Kabinett with the gorgeous fruit of the Juffer. Drink 2025-2045. 89-92 points – Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate, August 2020

Daniel Bouland Morgon Bellevue Cailloux 2019 (1.5L)
$105.00Bouland’s Morgon Bellevue Cailloux 2019 is made exactly the same way as all of the Bouland wines: natural, whole-bunch ferment, concrete tank/foudre élevage and no fining. This is fascinating to compare directly with the Sable (sand) cuvée. Here, there’s more plum and blackcurrant depths, and also a smoky, hot-rocks kind of mineral profile. Long and strong, […]

Decades Pinot Noir 2023
$78.00Is there more promise for Tasmanian chardonnay or pinot noir, or in a sense, are they equal? Considering the Decades chardonnay and pinot noir are off the same vineyard and the wines are as they are, I find i cannot apportion preference. Fragrant; it’s so beautifully alive with lavender and violets, clove, smoked paprika and […]

Decades Chardonnay 2023
$78.00Beauty is immediate. The pure and crystalline quality is captured in the gorgeous aromatics of grapefruit, fig, melon, spring jasmine and chocolate orange. Concentrated, but not big. Lithe, athletic and pure, but with a tempering suppleness; the tightness of youth and coiled power finessed, creamy and fleshy. Citrus and orchard fruits, mostly, the palate gripping […]

Haddow and Dineen Sehnsucht Riesling 2024
$45.00Always a lovely wine to taste, opening with pear, melon, citrus blossom, spring jasmine, lime, ripe lemon and subtle buttery/pastry notes. A wine of dimensions, the textural element a caress, but it also enables the wine to hold and enfold your palate. Juicy and unctuous, there is, however, an overwhelming sense of control and precision, […]

Bright ruby with aromas of macerated wild strawberry, red plum, red cherry and blood orange. Hints of dried citrus rind, amaro, exotic spice, pressed blossom, earth, pan juices and light […]

Marc Morey Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru ‘Les Caillerets’ 2022
$305.00“The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Caillerets 1er Cru has a captivating bouquet with yellow plum, lemon thyme, jasmine and crushed rock. Very well-defined, it articulates its terroir with real aplomb. The palate is taut and focused, lightly spiced on the entry and almost peppery compared to the other Premier Crus from Morey, fanning out wonderfully with real brio […]

Marc Morey Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru ‘Les Vergers’ 2022
$305.00“The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Vergers 1er Cru was reductive on the nose when I tasted the barrel sample, but that will be addressed by bottling time. There appears to be very good intensity here, and with time, there is an unexpected touch of Shiso leaf. The palate is well-balanced and poised, gently building towards an intense […]

Marc Morey Chassagne-Montrachet 2022

$105.00“The 2022 Bourgogne Blanc offers bright orchard fruit, particularly orange blossom, on the nose that will be difficult to resist in its youth. The palate is rounded with a smooth texture, lightly spiced with a dab of lemongrass perking up the finish. Delightful regional white Burgundy.” 87 points – Neal Martin, Vinous.com Click here for […]
