House of Arras Late Disgorged Vintage
1998 was the first vintage of the E.J. Carr Late Disgorged and this 2007 release celebrates the 10th consecutive release. Meticulously crafted from a tapestry of cold climate vineyards in pristine Tasmania. A rare level of sophistication that redefines the tirage.

Clotilde Davenne Chablis 1er Cru Montmains White
Craggy Range Sophia
The soils of the Craggy Range sites that supply fruit for this blend are scarily Pomerol-like. This is a wine of finesse and restraint, showing complexity and depth that we have come to expect from this producer, but is still surprising the uninitiated. 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet, 7% Cabernet Franc, 3% Petit Verdot.
Olivier Leflaive Meursault
Olivier Leflaive was co-manager of Domaine Leflaive until 1994 before withdrawing to concentrate on his own venture which he started in 1985. Today the domaine produces wine from some 65 appellations with 85% of the production being white wine. One of Burgundys most respected producers the estate produces a number of domaine wines from its own vineyards alongside its range of negocé bottlings. This Chardonnay is a wine with a fine aromatic intensity of almond, hazelnut, apple and a nice balance between smoothness and freshness on the palate.
William Fevre 1er Cru Montmains
Premier Cru Montmain's unique terroir of very stony terrain produces a wine with very pronounced mineral aromas, extraordinary power and excellent ageing potential. This Chardonnay by William Fevre shows great structure with good length. Both accessible and very fresh, it shows fantastic concentration.
Giant Steps Sexton Vineyard Chardonnay
Giant Steps plays it's part in the rapid accension of Australian Chardonnay back to the position it once held here. That being of the king of white varieties. This is a very stylish numbe from Phil Sexton and his team. Stonefruit, melon and butterscotch characters are supported by vanillin oak and the palate is long and textured with a clean crisp finish.
Craggy Range Les Beaux Cailloux Chardonnay
100% Chardonnay grapes. Les Beaux Cailloux (meaning the beautiful pebbles) is only made in the best years and represents the very best of the vintage. A complex, refined and serious wine that is capable of cellaring for lengthy periods developing even further in the bottle.
