Tyrrell’s Vat 63 Chardonnay Semillon 2019
$55.00Out of Stock
Fabulous. Grilled nuts, cream, white flowers, white peach and grapefruit. For all it’s richness, this is full of energy and tension. Expansive palate, the Semillon cuts through the Chardonnay but provides extra width too. Many people have described this as similar to Chablis, but there is more fruit here and I would drink this over […]

Domaine Didier Dagueneau Silex 2020
$400.00(2020) “While this was a warm season leading to richness in many wines from the region, the Silex 2020 shows ripe fruit, but there’s no sense of being overblown. The fine line that races through many wines relying on flint-based parcels is there, carrying the nectarine and oak-derived vanilla flavors, but its influence never tips into […]

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 […]

The low dosage of 2g/l and the warm vintage allow the fruit-based flavours free rein – white peach, Granny Smith apple and nectarine. The finish and aftertaste remain fresh and long. A house in grand form. 96 points, James Halliday – Australian Wine Companion […]

$155.00“The 2022 Treinspoor is pure Swartland Tinta Barocca that includes 50% whole clusters, 20 to 28 days on the skins and matured in old foudres. The bouquet is a little plusher on the nose than the Pofadder, with crushed rose petals and fynbos – garrigue. Stunning delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins, perfectly […]

Scions of Sinai Swangsang Syrah 2021
$75.00Syrah grown on decomposed granite, which lowers the wines overall pH, heightens freshness and accentuates perfume. Incredible Syrah here, with a taste not dissimilar to Eden valley Shiraz, but with a coolness and silken drive tensioned with such an incredible abundance of flavour.

Sadie Family Swartland Columella 2022
$340.00“This is the lightest bodied Columella ever, according to Eben Sadie, but he’s not lost any concentration or intensity at the lower alcohol level. Sourced from 12 different vineyards, seven of which are on the Paardeberg, this features components from slate, gravel, granite and sandstone soils and is a brilliant vintage of one of the world’s […]

JJ Prum Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese Museum Release 2015
$120.00Pre-arrival due August Prüm’s 2015 Graacher Himmelreich Spätlese is clear, intense and flinty on the nose, very precise but well concentrated; however, it is the most reductive of the Spätlese quartet. Round and piquant, with a stimulating fruit and salinity, this is a very well-defined, crystalline and straight Spätlese of great finesse and elegance. It […]

Standish Wine Co The Standish 2022
$140.00The 2022 The Standish Shiraz is again providing me with the opportunity to assess bottles two days apart, and how different they are. The freshly opened bottle, as we would all experience upon our first opening, is tight and fresh, with cracked fennel seed, black peppercorns, cumin and ras el’hanout, then dried blueberries and licorice, […]

Previous Base. “The NV (2016) Les Vignes de Bisseuil races out of the glass, showing terrific energy and cut.

All the elements come together so well in this beautifully expressive Champagne, another new addition to […]

Leeuwin Estate Art Series Chardonnay 2022

Woven and harmonious, it unfolds to a graphite and mineral thread, with a touch of sherbet, aniseed and cardamom. Gentle textures open through the mid-palate with vibrant natural acidity, amidst a black tea, talc and chalk-like finish featuring characteristic length. Winemaker’s Notes […]

Denis Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Cinq Terroirs 2021

All the vines are at the northern end of the appellation, which dictates the finesse.

Fabien Coche Meursault ‘Les Chevalieres’ 2021
$250.00The lieux-dit of Les Chevalieres is situated above the village of Meursault. Above is the lieux-dit of Les Luchets, which produces a higher toned, more tensile wine. I can’t help but think that this is ideally situated, in a sense, mid-slope, the perfect aspect in Burgundy. Impossibly complex, with notes of white flowers, lemon, lime, […]
