Lethbridge Gamay 2022

Region: VIC- Geelong
Vegan-friendly Organic

  "This is a slender version but it’s nutty, juicy and dry, and feels pretty convincing, the latter in the context of its lightness. It’s a refreshing red. It’s (red) cherried and boysenberries with well-integrated inlays of...

Region: France- Beaujolais
Vegan-friendly Organic

Curly Flat Pinot Noir 2022

Region: VIC- Macedon Ranges
Vegan-friendly Organic Sustainably-made

  "I like the stringiness of this, the tension, the fruit, the length. It’s real pinot. It feels as though it’s desperate to rush forward but it holds itself back until it gets to the finish, where it runs. It has a minerally aspect, a...

Curly Flat Chardonnay 2022

Region: VIC- Macedon Ranges
Vegan-friendly Organic Sustainably-made

  "This is quite slender, more slender than I usually associate with Curtly Flat, though it builds flesh and flavour as it breathes and it will no doubt continue to do so as it matures. It tastes of cedar and nectarine, grapefruit and green apple,...

Christian Moreau Les Clos Grand Cru 2022

Region: France- Burgundy Chablis
Vegan-friendly Organic

Adelina Estate Shiraz 2022

Region: SA- Clare Valley
Vegan-friendly Organic

  "Blackberry, raspberry, a little sweet baking spice, mint and floral perfume, though those things, while good, mean nothing until you put the wine in your mouth; then it really takes off. This is a liquid ‘mineral’ delight, and the...

Adelina Estate Introspect Red Blend 2022

Region: SA- Clare Valley
Vegan-friendly Organic

  "Strawberry, cherry, white flowers, mint, orange peel, aniseed, dried herbs, apricot. It’s a riot of perfume and red fruits, it has a sappy sort of white wine acidity, but plenty of red fruits too, dusty and peppery tannin, juicy and...

Murdoch Hill Apollo Pinot Noir 2022

Region: SA- Adelaide Hills
Vegan-friendly Sustainably-made

  "Whiffs of cap gun, warm slate, a bit of flint too, plus dark cherry, salted liquorice. Savoury start, very. Smoky and flinty to taste, an override on dark cherry fruit, plum, licks of liquorice again and lingers with smokiness again. Tannins...

SC Pannell Old McDonald Grenache 2022

Region: SA- McLaren Vale

SC Pannell Little Branch Grenache 2022

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

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

  "This is about as fine as shiraz can get in the Vale, boasting filigreed tannins and such a natural sense of freshness that it whets the palate and makes one hungry at first sip. Northern Rhône-like scents of grilled meats, cloves, lilacs...
