Tim Wildman Astro Bunny 2021

$85.00

Very tart and tangy, ginger-lemon tea vibes are crazy, chamomile too. Aromatics fly out of the glass here. Wild, zingy bubbles going everywhere. Sour-tart-sweet goes off with powdery, chalky tannins in the mix. It’s a cracking drink, quite a bit going on, lots of excitement to guzzle down.

Domaine Simha ‘Raya’ Sauvignon Blanc 2019

$108.00

A very eccentric, atypical and slightly oxidative, yet very drinkable, complex and enjoyable Sauvignon Blanc coming from Simha. There is very little typical varietal character here and the style is more in the 'natty' white wine camp, with somewhat dominant phenolic notes, some terracotta tones of amphorae and oxidative complexity. However, if you don't mind that, this is a lovely little drop - the relatively light body of the wine and incisive acidity make it a great food wine.

So Fresh, So Clean

Domaine Simha ‘Lotus’ Riesling 2019

$105.00

This Riesling is ripe and fresh with a fleshy body and bright flavors of freshly picked red apples, some cantaloupe, a little bit of tart lemony citrus fruits, light sweeter notes of ripe citrus fruits and a hint of honeyed sweetness. Quite high acidity that lends nice sense of balance and poise to the wine. Mouth-watering finish. Definitely one for the books.

So Fresh, So Clean

Silverstream Riesling 2019

$62.00

Pale lemon-green in the glass. Vibrant and fun on the palate, offering great acidity and 4-5 g/L of residual sugar, just right. Citrus domination with a bit of green apple and melon. Bit of petrol due to bottle aging. Medium finish. An everyday Riesling with a very clean fruit character and good balance. Great for drinking with fish or light cheeses.

Latta Sauvignon Blanc Quartz Bianco 2021

$68.00

From the Mullen's dry-grown vineyard in Moonambel, the fruit was whole bunch pressed into stainless tanks and left to rest on full lees for 10 months. Ripe fruits, savoury sandy phenolics, herbs and a moreish line of zippy acidity.

Rieslingfreak ‘No.33’ Clare Valley Growers Riesling 2022

$48.00

Orange, limes, lemons providing a citrus line in the glass, with green apple and pear also dominating. The intensity of a fresh fruit salad. Generous and refreshing fruit driven style with a soft, velvety palate of exceptional length. It has classic flavors of ripe lemon and lime and some tropical fruit notes. It drinks well young, but will also reward with cellaring. A wine to enjoy with or without food.

ADD TO CART

So Fresh, So Clean

Rieslingfreak ‘No.8’ Riesling 2022

$48.00

Stunning nose of green apple, passionfruit and ripe lemon. High, razor-sharp acid highlights the fruit gorgeously and is backed up by just the right amount of residual sugar. Mind you, the sweetness is not here to overwork the wine. Its role is just to make it juicier and more concentrated. Even though it's highly approachable now, this will just keep on giving and developing. Great job by John Hughes, putting a seal on our favourite Riesling outside of Europe.

Topper’s Mountain Gewurztraminer 2016

$65.00

Pale lemon green in the glass. Superbly aromatic, almost like a lychee was smashed into the glass. Some note of lemongrass, white pepper and papaya. Rich and lean at the same time, lots of body, lots of alcohol, but also a good string of acidity to complement. Nice Gewurz, nothing like Alsace or other Aussies that we've tried. Props.

A beautiful blend from Viognier, Marsanne and Roussanne. The Viognier gives fruit and perfume while the Marsanne lends it’s waxy texture and the Roussanne gives a hint of savouriness. Bottled un-fined and un-filtered. A unique, delicious, amber wine.

Queen Chardonnay

Moorooduc Estate The Moorooduc Mcintyre Chardonnay 2020

$105.00

The McIntyre Chardonnay is more savoury and restrained on opening, with cheese, cashew nuts, sandalwood and citrus rind aromatics opening slowly.  On the palate, the wine has similar savoury notes, with very tightly wound power and intensity.  This wine combines elegance and power, restraint and complexity – it is an intriguing wine that needs time, and food more than the Robinson and will very much reward patience – in the cellar or in the glass.

Queen Chardonnay

Amato Vino ‘Mantra’ Chardonnay 2022

$85.00

Really good Chardonnay, even when drunk slightly warm (happens sometimes, we have to admit it). Some solid complexity coming through with ripe tropical & stone fruit followed by barrel fermented tones of brioche, vanilla and butter. Zippy acidity highlighting the fruit, preventing it from being overripe & heavy. Big alcohol as well, but balanced. Long finish.

Queen Chardonnay

Bellwether Chardonnay 2018

$102.00

Incredible zippy acidity with a bouquet of lemon curd, grapefruit combined with a hint of ripe pineapple, with a stony minerality and some attractive reductive aroma’s that is so typical for the region. Smooth and buttery on the mouthfeel like freshly baked bread. Remarkable freshness - and flavour. Complex flavours and touch of gun flint, grapefruit and succulent acid.

Tomfoolery Trouble & Strife 2021

Light salmon pink in the glass. Pleasant, sort of sweet aromatics - cranberry, candied cherry, raspberry. Very fruit-driven on the palate as well. Simple, refreshing, light. Alcohol is much lighter compared to the 2019 vintage, giving way to a lot more acidity. Great wine, works well at the price.

Frederick Stevenson Rosé 2020

$62.00

Fruits and florals play around on the nose, very aromatic and enjoyable stuff. Dry with a beautifully integrated acidity, just enough to highlight the bright fruit. Long finish.

Planted on the Merricks Grove vineyard, this wine is more full-bodied (in comparison to his other Pinots), but still retaining its delicateness and elegance at the same time. Supple and savoury, dangerously drinkable from start to finish.

Jauma Tikka the Cosmic Cat 2021

$79.00

Such good quality fruit is used for this blend. The aromatics of Grenache really come out on the first whiff, while the Shiraz plays a dominant role on the palate. Juicy, ripe fruit, without being over the top. Just a lick of tannins and earthiness on the finish. Delizioso!

Frederick Stevenson Sangiovese 2021

$80.00

Sangio scents of red berries, cherry, bloody game meat, white pepper, dried, mixed Italian herbs. Juicy on the palate, riper red berry fruit characters but again the herbs, spice, gamey-savouriness, and amongst all that a weave of graphite-tinged, lacy tannin. Finishes dry, spicy, savoury, after that pleasurable juicy start. Yum!

Amato Vino Nero d’Avola 2019

$98.00

Some compare it to Pinot Noir, others to Nebbiolo, but Sicily’s noble red comfortably stands alone as one of the most unique grapes planted in the country. Brad’s Nero d’Avola is true to its Italian roots. Aromas of spice, florals and candied berry fruit. Light with mouth-watering acidity and a solid savoury core. Don't expect crazy complexity here or something that will alter your life's view. This is just perfect for a warm, sunny afternoon. Period.

Always good, the Primitivo here shining full on. Lots of fruit-forward character accompanied by a bit of spice in the background. The palate is showing high acid with a brush of ripe tannins. Approachable now, but will go strong for 2-3 more years if you decide to lay it down in your cellar.

Rieslingfreak No.55 is an off-dry expression of the finely balanced compatibility between the richness and generosity of the fruit from the family vineyard in White Hutt, and the lean, mineral-driven elegance of the fruit from Polish Hill River. The natural sweetness of this off-dry style adds an unctuous richness to the mid-palate, while the driving natural acidity imparts a crisp, clean finish.

Deep ruby red in the glass with slight garnet hues. Aromatics are so subtle, yet there is so much depth here - primary notes of black cherry, blackcurrant, blackberry followed by secondary tones of cedar, vanilla, tobacco and just a splash of bottle aging in the form of dried herbs. Powerful structure here, but doesn't jump out or try to knock you out. No, this is Godfather elegance all the way. Tannins are ripe, but only just. Acidity is creating a perfect backbone for all the concentration to be carried to the long finish line.

Lethbridge Hugo George 2006

$210.00

A simply stunning Chardonnay influenced by white Burgundy. Textbook example of how good Geelong Chardonnay ages. There are no signs of decline whatsoever, but instead the wine has reached its apogee of stunning richness, complexity and opulence. It feels relatively big and quite round, yet it doesn't come across as heavy nor flabby because of its balanced acidity and bright, almost trebly minerality, balancing the weight and richness wonderfully. So very lovely. Tremendous value at this price.

Lethbridge ‘Allegra’ Chardonnay 2008

$175.00

Allegra is Lethbridge's ?reserve? Chardonnay; not unrelated to the regular release, but here there is greater richness to the nose and palate. There is a touch of butter over the figs, nuts and minerals; this sees 100% malolactic but the effects are subtle and finely judged. There?s still a real acid spine holding all this together and a powdery richness from the oak. An all-wild yeast ferment has given this a wonderfully supple texture; there?s nothing feral about it. Medium-full bodied by Chardonnay standards, with great evenness along the tongue; this is where the quality really shows. Medium-long dry minerally finish. This should age beautifully for 2-3 more years. Exquisite Chardonnay.
