By Farr Shiraz
Shiraz By Farr is one of Victoria's premier cool-climate Shiraz's, made by the iconic Geelong winemaker, Gary Farr. The nose is incredibly complex showing notes of red and black fruits, spice, black pepper and iodine. In the mouth the wine is incredibly fresh. Wonderfully braced fruit and fine framing tannins and an outstanding length.
Wendouree Malbec
Dark garnet in colour with ripe black jammy fruits, dry spices and wet leaves on the nose. A mouth-filling tannins and great fruit and acidity balance on the palate. A rather savoury and lingering finish.
Château Mont-Redon Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape from the acclaimed 2007 vintage are wines to be treasured, lauded and above all else enjoyed. Truly delightful wines of true regional character and quiet concentration. The Château Mont-Redon is a prime example with an abundance of cherry, mineral and wild pastures on the nose and wonderfully refined slatey type flavours with more than enough flesh on its bones. Will cellar for 15 years with aplomb.

Massolino Barolo
First produced in 1911. The fruit for Massolino's classic Nebbiolo cuvée is selected from seven sites, representing roughly seven hectares of prime-sited Serralunga vineyards. The oldest vines that feed this bottling are 55 years old (the youngest are 10), and it spends 24 months in large Slovenian oak (only).
Vietti Barolo
Product Description: Barolo in magnum is built for time. Vietti’s 2021 release brings together fruit from select parcels across the Barolo DOCG, showing the estate’s hallmark of precision and restraint. The larger format allows Nebbiolo’s tension and perfume to unfold more slowly, making it a compelling choice for collectors who prize longevity and evolution in the cellar. Vietti has long been a benchmark for Barolo, balancing traditional techniques with exacting attention in the vineyard and cellar. In magnum, the wine’s structure and aromatic range are given even greater scope to deepen over decades, offering an expression of Barolo at its most enduring. The Maker We owe thanks to Carlo Vietti who started the Vietti winery at the end of the 1800s. Situated, to this day, right in the heart of the Langhe, on the highest point of the medieval village of Castiglione Falletto. Mario Vietti, Carlo's son, returned in 1917 after many years from living in the United States, and took the reins of the company, armed with the knowledge of modern techniques he elevated the winery to produce higher-quality wines. By the end of the 1950s, daughter Luciana Vietti had inherited the winery, together with her husband Alfredo Currado an oenologist and fellow art lover, they merged their knowledge of wine with art and culture. Since 1974 certain Vietti wines have been dressed with specially-designed original works (lithographs, xylographies, etchings, silkscreens, linocuts) inspired by the wine of that particular vintage. From the beginning Vietti has been about commitment and vision, culture and passion. These are the keywords that have contributed to the growth of the Vietti winery and brand, universally recognised today among the best Italian wine labels. The path of quality is traced, thanks to the respect for tradition and careful experimentation, where man and earth have always been able to dialogue. The intellectual, professional, and prospective legacy of Alfredo Currado and Luciana was taken up first, during the 80s, by their son-in-law Mario Cordero and then, starting from the 90s, by their son Luca Currado Vietti, subsequently accompanied by his wife Elena. In 2016, the Krause Family purchased Vietti. Luca Currado Vietti and wife Elena, continued to process and market the wines producing their final vintage in 2021. Vietti has extended the winemaking properties with new, renowned crus in the denomination of Barolo and Barbaresco. In the Colli Tortonesi area, thanks to the purchase of vineyards, the production of Timorasso had its beginning. As in the past, Vietti maintains those founding values - commitment and vision, culture and passion. The same values that animated Carlo Vietti at the beginning, and all his successors. Philosophy Vietti's philosophy is deeply rooted in respect for the land and a commitment to showcasing the full potential of the Barolo region. The estate’s winemaking process combines traditional methods with modern innovation to create wines that are both true to their heritage and forward-thinking. Vietti believes that each wine should be a reflection of its terroir, capturing the essence of the land and climate in which it is grown. With a focus on sustainability, the estate uses organic and biodynamic practices where possible, allowing the vineyards to thrive while minimising their environmental impact. At the heart of Vietti's philosophy is the belief that great wine starts in the vineyard. The estate works closely with its growers to ensure that only the best fruit is harvested, with minimal intervention in the winemaking process to allow the natural qualities of the grapes to shine. This commitment to quality is evident in every bottle, and the wines produced by Vietti are a true expression of the Barolo region’s rich history and tradition.

MICHELE CHIARLO BARBARESCO ASILI
Michele Chiarlo was founded in 1956 by the sole and present owners, Michele and Giuseppina Chiarlo. Son of over seven generations of esteemed wine growers, Michele is today one of the most respected producers of the fine wines of Piedmont and a leading figure in its viticultural industry. Asili is a relatively new cru within the Barbaresco DOCG. It is said that the blue-grey calcareous marl and clay here contribute to the complexity of the wines here, along with their delicate and refined characters. Delicately perfumed, with characters of pure red fruits and gently aromatic, floral notes, supported by fine spices. Silky tannins frame a core of red berry fruits. Extremely charming, elegant and approachable.
