The Torbreck Descendant has a powerful nose of blackberry and tar complemented by floral lavender and a violet lift. Full-bodied and concentrated with ripe silky tannins and plenty of extract this wine has a great future ahead.

The wine is deep crimson with purple hues. On the nose there are hints of fresh porcini, blackberries, summer thunderstorm, cold steel, cinnamon and white pepper. The palate is truly captivating, combining youthful and finely detailed fruit complexity with slightly wild, earthy and rusty structural elements, true to the varietal integrity, while articulating the personality of the site. Effortless, lingering and satisfying..

Henschke Julius is a classic expression of Eden Valley Riesling. An almost perfect vintage has provided the citrus blossom and lime aromas and an intense minerally structure which will develop for a decade at least.

Henschke have in recent years begun to identify and single out great quality parcels of Shiraz fruit that deserves to be bottled seperately and released as part of their Vineyard Selection. The Tappa Pass Shiraz is sourced from old low yielding Barossa vineyards that shows amazing depth and concentration. Rich, lush and intense it will develop further complexity with bottle age.

Jeff Grosset's Rieslings are amongst the most sought after in Australia. The Polish Hill is superb with intense lingering citrus flavours lively natural acidity and a crisp dry finish. The remarkable think about Jeff's Rieslings are their phenomenal ability to age so very gracefully and will reward the very patient.

Product Description: An historic cru redefined with precision and finesse. Vietti’s Barbaresco Roncaglie 2021 marks a new era for this site, drawn from sandy hillside vineyards in Treiso that favour fragrance and elegance over power. First bottled in 1967 and once known as Roncaglie Masseria, the wine has since been fine-tuned with longer maceration, extended ageing and a considered later release, ensuring it reaches the market with greater balance and composure. In 2021 the wine shows remarkable clarity of fruit and structure. Fermented in open-top stainless steel with daily délestage and aged for two and a half years in large oak, barrique and steel, it reveals the house’s deft hand at expressing Nebbiolo. The result is a Barbaresco of concentration and grace, layering perfumed florals, taut tannins and fresh red fruits in a style that underscores why Vietti remains one of Piedmont’s most respected names. Tasting Notes NOSE – Red berries & florals Wild strawberries, blood orange, violet and rose with spice and earthy undertones.

The only L’Arlésienne aged in barrel, Corcelette is a blend of two high-altitude parcels on the north side of Morgon. There are 0.20 hectares of north-exposed 80-year vines in the Janins climat at 450 metres and 0.25 hectares in Truges (bordering Chiroubles Chatenay), where the vines are only slightly younger, and the parcel faces south. Both parcels are farmed biodynamically, which is exceptionally rare in this village. Benoît bottled these two sites separately in 2021 and may do so again in the future. In 2022, Janins was severely hailed, so he had no choice but to make the blend. It features just a little more bunch than the Chiroubles, and this wine was raised for 12 months in 500-litre oak. It’s an impressive wine: tightly wound yet with plenty of fruit and a long, powdery finish. Impressive!

Sourced from dry-grown, hand tended vines in the north east of Victoria, this Beechworth Chardonnay from Savaterre will surely convince even the most hardened Chardonnay critic that modern Australian Chardonnay is of supreme world-class standard. Keppell Smith handcrafts a Chardonnay of utmost power and concentration that produces a length of flavour that borders on the immortal.
