Varieties

G.D. Vajra Barolo Albe 2019 DOCG

Region: Italy - Barolo

  "Juicy, red fruits and mint, exotic spice, dried roses. It’s a classic Barolo in feel, red fruits and supple tannin, a little bit ferrous too, quiet perfume, and a long finish of offering gentle stony grip and rosehip and orange peel...

Yangarra Kings Wood Shiraz 2021

Region: SA- McLaren Vale
Vegan-friendly Organic Sustainably-made

  "Dark, inky and really opaque and youthful in the glass. Evocative aromas of mulberry, rhubarb, satsuma plum, licorice, char and spice. Rich, mouth-filling and plush on the palate, oodles of dark fruits, spice and creamy oak. A powerful wine with...

Standish The Relic Shiraz Viognier 2021

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "The 2021 is creamy, plush and almost sybaritic in its outlay of fruit and tannin. At 15.5% alcohol, it's the highest alcohol wine in the 2021 release, yet it doesn’t show that via warmth or harshness in the wine. The whole-bunch component...

Standish Lamella Shiraz 2021

Region: SA- Eden Valley

  "If anything, the 2021 Lamella is full of aching potential; its future is writ upon the balance of fruit and skin/stalk tannin, freshness and density. For lovers of this cuvée, I cannot recall seeing it so balanced and poised on release...

Swinney Farvie Syrah 2021

Region: WA-(Other)
Vegan-friendly Organic Sustainably-made

  "The 2021 Farvie Syrah is lighter and finer than the Mourvèdre, yet it is darker in the glass and more mouthfilling. I suppose, in some ways, the flavor profile here is more expected, yet the tannic structure of the thing is more refined...

Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2022

Moss Wood Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Region: WA- Margaret River
Vegan-friendly Sustainably-made

  "Another simply sublime edition of this great wine. The volume of fruit was down almost 60% but the small berry influence has added even more intensity and depth, if that is possible with this wine. Interesting point of difference is that the...
