Unmistakably, Grange, this 2012 vintage is complex, flamboyant and lifted. An aromatic multi-cultural characteristics. The earthiness is well integrated with the aromas of dark fruits, grounded coffee, red liquorice and black olives, which leads to a firmly structured finish.
Penfolds Bin 707
Bin 707 is a Cabernet Sauvignon reflection of Grange, intensely-flavoured fruit, completion of fermentation and maturation in new oak, expressing a Penfolds understanding of multi-vineyard, multi-region fruit sourcing. Bin 707 was first vintaged in 1964. The wine was not made from 1970 to 1975 when fruit was directed to other wines, nor in 1981, 1995, 2000, 2003 or 2011 (when fruit of the required style and quality was not available). Full bodied and with proven cellaring potential, Bin 707 retains a secure place among the ranks of Australias finest Cabernets.

Pierre-Vincent Girardin Vosne Romanée Les Damaudes
Product Description: Pinot precision from a prized Vosne lieu-dit. The 2022 Vosne-Romanée Les Damaudes from Pierre-Vincent Girardin delivers a vivid snapshot of site and winemaker in sync. This rare parcel sits just above the hallowed Vosne 1er Cru Malconsorts at 300–350 metres elevation, planted with vines over 50 years old. It’s a wine of altitude, energy and poise. Girardin treats this terroir with finesse: whole-cluster fermented, matured 11 months in oak (one-third new), then a short stint in steel before bottling unfined and unfiltered. The result is a racy, blackcurrant-fruited Pinot with sculpted tannins and a mineral backbone that reflects its clay-limestone soils. Structured yet supple, this cuvée will reward cellaring for 6 to 12 years. Ideal with game birds, roast lamb, or a pan-seared foie gras. The Maker Pierre-Vincent Girardin cut his teeth under Burgundy’s grand domaines, then struck out on his own in 2012 with a singular goal: to distil the purest essence of Meursault’s storied terroir. Working single-parcel parcels across premier lieu-dits, he tends each vine personally—pruning, ploughing and hand-harvesting to ensure fruit arrives at the winery in immaculate condition. His background in oenology underpins a thoughtful, measured approach: fermentation is guided but never forced, and élevage prioritises transparency over showmanship. At the winery, Girardin champions whole-cluster vinification, letting indigenous yeasts and gentle extraction shape each cuvée. He favours large-format, 456-litre barrels (half new) to temper oak’s footprint, then finishes in stainless steel to lock in freshness and purity. Unfined and unfiltered, his wines arrive in bottle as faithful ambassadors of their origin—alive with mineral energy and poised acidity. Today, Pierre-Vincent’s range stands as a testament to small-scale craft. With annual production measured in thousands—not tens of thousands—of bottles, each release feels personal: a snapshot of vintage nuances and a window into Girardin’s relentless quest for balance. His wines are never ostentatious; they simply do their job with quiet confidence. Philosophy At the heart of Girardin’s endeavour lies a reverence for soil. His parcels—Casse-Têtes, Sous la Velle and La Barre Dessus—are chosen for their limestone-marl matrices, each site imparting its own textural signature. By isolating micro-terroirs, he lets geology speak: gunflint minerality, bright citrus tension and the chalky grip that defines top-flight Meursault. Sustainability is more than a buzzword here. Girardin farms organically, accepts vintage variability and avoids chemical shortcuts. Low yields are a feature, not a flaw; they concentrate flavour and ensure vines remain vigorous for generations to come. Every vineyard intervention—from cover crops to canopy management—is calibrated to nurture biodiversity and soil health. In cellar, restraint rules. Fermentation vessels are selected for nuance, élevage schedules are dictated by tasting rather than tradition, and assemblages are kept minimal to preserve site identity. Through these choices, the Girardin range emerges as a cohesive narrative: a clear, unvarnished voice that invites drinkers to explore Meursault one parcel at a time. Tasting Notes NOSE – Dark fruit and spice Aromatic lift of blackcurrant, wild cherry and subtle earth. PALATE – Racy and refined Fresh black fruit rides a frame of fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. FINISH – Silky and persistent Velvety texture tapers into a savoury, mineral finish.
Pierre-Vincent Girardin Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru Les Pucelles

FINISH – Long and savoury A saline edge and mineral cut carry through a long, mouth-watering finish.
Pierre-Vincent Girardin Puligny-Montrachet
Pierre-Vincent Girardin’s 2022 Puligny-Montrachet comes from two prized lieux-dits, “Les Charmes” and “Les Corvées des Vignes,” on the northern edge of the village. As a 13th-generation Burgundian who struck out on his own at 21, Girardin channels centuries of expertise into each bottle, making his young label a go-to for Chardonnays that marry pedigree with personality. These 30+ year-old vines thrive in clay-limestone soils under organic and biodynamic cultivation. Whole-cluster pressing feeds into 11 months of barrel ageing (40% new oak) before a further six months in stainless steel, preserving the wine’s tension and energy. The result is a wine of precision—bright grapefruit and gunflint notes cutting through a pure mineral core. Drinkable now for its vivid attack and sleek palate, this Puligny-Montrachet will also reward careful cellaring over the next 8–15 years. Serve at 12 ºC alongside poultry in sauce, veal with mushrooms, foie gras or simply grilled lobster and sea-fish.
