[SOLD-OUT] Marchand & Burch Chardonnay 2010

Region: WA-(Other)

Mike Bennie 93+ Points!"...This gets about 40% new oak, 10 months. Pascal Marchand is the higher power in fruit selection, overseeing and looking at the blends for these wines. Bit of a doff of the hat to Burgundy/Chablis therefore. Soft toasty, nougat...

[SOLD-OUT] Spinifex Indigene Mataro Shiraz 2009

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Mike Bennie 94 points!"Bold, seductive aromas that run from Indian spice to red berries to briar and back to herbs. It's complex and heady, yet inviting, with plumes of scent evoking the character of the wine from afar. One of those you can whiff from...

[SOLD-OUT] Howard Park Cabernet Merlot 2003

Region: WA- Great Southern

Silken textured and seductive, this beautifully mulberried, leathered, curranty wine is a picture of elegance and control. Barely more than medium weight, and yet 100 percent satisfying, it smells of ripe, dark, summer fruits, its cedary, chocolatey, 100...

[SOLD-OUT] Rolf Binder Heysen Shiraz 2006

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

[SOLD-OUT] Felton Road Otago Pinot Noir 2009

Region: NZ- Central Otago

Wine Front 93+ Points!"Forest berries, dusty earth and savoury spice waft from the glass. Looks classic Otago but has additional lift and perfume. A very appealing entry from an aromatic perspective, then greeted by surprising juiciness in front palate...

[SOLD-OUT] Chateau Lafite Rothschild 2002

Region: France- Bordeaux Left Bank

Robert Parker 94 points!A brilliant offering and a candidate for wine of the vintage, this is classic Lafite that reminded me somewhat of the 1976, although the vintage conditions were completely different. This is a medium-weight, quintessentially...

Region: SA- Clare Valley

[SOLD-OUT] Yalumba Menzies Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Region: SA- Coonawarra
Vegan-friendly Sustainably-made

-Gary Walsh 95 points!'A hat-trick for Menzies now, although I know Mattinson was not as keen on the 2004 as I was (87 points to my 94). This elicited an unsolicited comment of 'ooo this is nice' (or something along those lines) from JP, which is a sure...

[SOLD-OUT] Branson Coach House Block Rare Shiraz 2003

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

"The fabulous, inky/purple-hued 2003 Shiraz Coach House only carries 14.5% alcohol (in the land of 15% full-throttle Shiraz). It offers a huge nose of blackberry and cassis liqueur, plums, figs, barbecue smoke, and lead pencil shavings. A wine of great...
