A blend of Tasmanian fruit sits composed and compact on a bright rail of acidity—redcurrant, wild raspberry and cassis, with oak very much in the background. Wild fermented, with a fraction whole bunch, and matured in French oak—it’s just lovely!

Pooley Estate Pinot Noir 2021

Cinsault and Grenache were pressed and fermented separately in concrete and blended before bottling. Refreshing strawberry, a lick of tannin, some granitic energy and cool mineral acidity.

Martin Texier Le Preyna 2020

Domaine Kreydenweiss is situated right in the heart of the town of Andlau, towards the northern end of the Alsace vineyard region. Here, the Vosges Mountains are exceptionally steep, and cascade down into the valley. All the wines are made with natural yeast, no additions, and bottled with little or no SO2. A blend of Pinot Gris & Riesling. Citrus blossom, lime leaf, pithy citrus and a long line of salty minerality. (750ml) 13.0% ABV

Marc Kreydenweiss Clos du Val d'Éléon 2018

A menagerie of flavours in one bottle, with notes of peach iced tea that sharpen up into something a little more savoury and saline, with hints of balsamic raspberries, and a racy acidity. A wild ride, but this does slide on down and before you know it, you'll be onto your next bottle!

Momento Mori Rosso 2020

Sauvignon Blanc leads the charge here, blended with Chardonnay for a glass of wine bursting with elegant stone fruit and ripe citrus. Its limestone soils bring tension and definition to this refreshing wine.

Domaine des Huards Pure Cheverny Blanc 2019

Dark currants and wild raspberry sweetness is moored with an edge of whole bunch savouriness and spice, woven through long and fine tannins. If you can bear to wait, this will only get better over the next five years.

PHI Lusatia Park Pinot Noir 2019

ARC Block 6 Viognier 2021

This is a delicious Sauvignon Blanc from Alysha and Lucy at Allevare. A small portion of the fruit spent two weeks on skins in an amphora, whilst the remaining juice was pressed straight to neutral oak and aged on full lees for 12 months. Lemon curd, passionfruit sorbet, and plenty of tangy grapefruit, with a subtle oxidative character and mealy texture from extended lees contact.

Allevare Amphora Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Savoury tomato leaf is met with tart red fruits, raspberry, and persimmon, all wrapped up with sappy spice. It may be light coloured but it's deep flavoured.

BK Wines Gower Pinot Noir 2021

Nestled between the undulating hills of north-east Victoria are 23-year-old Viognier vines that Jarrod has turned into it pure gold! After a short stint on skins and a longer nine months on lees, this is softly textured and a real delight to drink. Stone fruit and some quinine are charged with a dose of fresh acidity and a little phenolic bite.

Jarrod Kiven Viognier 2021

This fresh French import is bursting with wild black cherry, with loads of crunch, tense tannin and acid dancing throughout. Drink it down and have your next bottle ready to go, you’ll be on it sooner than you think!

Richard Rottiers Brouilly 2020

Concentrated red cherry, with black plum and firm tannins. This wine is long and whilst drinking beautifully now has ageing potential.

Barbacan Valtellina Superiore Livel Nebbiolo 2016

From their best plot "La Platera" comes this pure expression with floral aromatics and notes of gunpowder that are typical of a large "Pago" (or single vineyard for our non-Spanish speak pals). Often reserved for sherry, it's the star of the show here with fruit from 60 year old vines and time in Bordeaux barrels. Lovers of Jura may want to consider crossing borders as past vintages have been likened to a Ganevat. This bottle is a perfect illumination of the Palamino grape—balanced, salty, elegant.

Muchada-Léclapart Lumière Palomino 2019

A nice rounded mouthfeel with a palate of stonefruit and yellow grapefruit, with subtle white floral notes. This has it all: texture, acidity and flavour are all present in harmony.

Allevare Yarra Valley Single Vineyard Chardonnay 2021

Floral aromatics lead to a darker palate of black cherries and fresh herbs, with subtle notes of red liquorice and some dusty earth. And if you really want to impress with your wine trivia chops, the fruit for this delectable number was picked at first light for ultimate freshness.

Lyons Will Pinot Noir 2019

Horse trainer-turned-winemaker, Alexandre nurtures his vineyard by hand and horse alone—but that’s not the only reason this winemaker is one to watch! The Gallus Cuvee is fermented dry but has a longer elevage in old oak so texturally is quite a serious and powerful wine. If you’re after something special, you’ve found it.

Alexandre Giquel Vouvray Cuvée Gallus 2019

Notes of tart cherry and raspberry conserve are met with a dusting of tannins and a lick of brisk acidity on the palate. This Shiraz/Sauvignon Blanc blend is aromatic, fresh and all good vibes and takes inspiration from the wines of Sam Vinciullo and Envinate.

Putabida Vino Shiraz Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Delicate, light extraction (like a Pinot) with a floral nose. Strawberry with some earthiness, salinity, lingering hints of Caraway seed, and nice tannins.

Terre à Terre Piccadilly Trousseau 2021

Nebbiolo leads the charge in this blend which uses grapes from the Sega family's vineyards in Valtellina, a valley in Italy's Lombardy region bordering Switzerland. Aged for 12 months in oak before being bottled. Lovely complexity, red fruit, dried herbs, and a lovely melody of minerality and smooth tannins. A lovely example of Valtellina Superiore.

Barbacàn Valtellina Superiore Jazpémi 2019

Nebbiolo leads the charge in this blend which uses grapes from the Sega family's vineyards in Valtellina, a valley in Italy's Lombardy region bordering Switzerland. Vineyards in this region practically hug the Alps.
