2019 Watervale Riesling, clos Clare
£2495
As the third generation of the Barry winemaking family, brothers Sam & Tom Barry now hold the keys to this boutique winery. Riesling is the Clare Valley’s signature variety and this is the 10th vintage from clos Clare’s Riesling patch, adjoining the historic ‘Florita’ vineyard in Watervale.

It is a hand-crafted wine showing poise, elegance and character. Delicate aromas of lemons and limes, carry through onto the palate. The palate shows a great balance between citrus fruit and the hallmark acidity of the 2019 vintage and leads to a delicious and mouthwatering finish.

Located in the prestigious Watervale sub-region of the Clare Valley, the vineyard itself is over 70 years old, although the Riesling vines were replanted 46 years ago. Situated in the southwest corner of the former La Florita vineyard, the clos Clare vineyard comprises two hectares. The vines are dry-grown, which is facilitated by the clay content of the soil, as it helps to retain the moisture to nourish the vine. The canopy management techniques used in the vineyard differ according to the orientation of the vine: the north-facing vines are exposed to the sun, while the south-facing vines are protected by the canopy vegetation.

2017 Mercurey `Le Roc Blanc`, Chateau de Santenay
£2495
Another cracker from Chateau de Santenay! This wine is pale gold in colour and very expressive on the nose with aromas of bright citrus fruit and white flowers. The palate has a lovely texture from the oak ageing, with concentrated flavours of white peach and vanilla balanced with racy acidity.

The fruit for the Mercurey ‘Le Roc Blanc’ comes from Chateau de Santenay’s 72 hectares of vines planted across the Mercurey appellation. The soils are rich in clay, with limestone still very evident alongside some areas of marl. These characteristics give the white wines of Mercurey a strong structure and a beautiful texture

2021/22 Kekerengu Coast Sauvignon Blanc, Astrolabe
£2495
The story of the Kēkerengū Coast Sauvignon Blanc is really defined by where it is: outside of the typical bounds of Marlborough. It is grown on limestone soils, which are not seen in the Wairau or Awatere Valleys. Kēkerengū is a narrow stretch between sea and mountain, and its extreme maritime climate has a profound influence on the wine, with an early budburst and late harvest. This combination of different soil and climate from the rest of Marlborough gives a very unique expression of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

This 2021 vintage is dry, bone dry. Wafting from the glass are aromas of citrus pith, lime and grapefruit zest and hints of jasmine tea, fennel and basil. The palate is intense with flinty, almost salty notes and passionfruit flavours. It has a lovely briny, salty, savoury finish which speaks a bit about the sea nearby. It’s a great wine with oysters on the half shell, and it’s a wine that really appeals to a lot of people around the world that would normally profess not to be huge Marlborough Sauvignon drinkers and may have more European drinking sensibilities. Will develop in the bottle – drink now to 2028

2023 Gruner Veltliner ‘Johann’ Federspiel, Weingut Johann Donabaum
£2495

A fabulous, concentrated wine with apple and lime characters combined with white pepper, cardamom and spicy minerality. Balanced and refreshing.

The Grüner Veltliner vines are grown in the Wachau, the most prestigious viticultural area in Austria. The vineyard is located on the steep terraces of the Spitzer Valley with proximity to the Danube. The temperature variation in the valley, with warmer days and cooler nights, has a significant role to play in the ripening of the berries. The vines are grown in Gneiss soils, made up of schist and granite with a high mineral content.

£2495
Complex aromas of green apple, hay and herbaceous notes are underpinned by remarkable minerality. Textured and full flavoured with wonderful fluency and rich energy on the finish.

The Chardonnay component comes from La Carrera which is located at 1,700 metres above sea level in sandy soils which are supported by gravel and boulder.

2021 Chardonnay, Brokenwood
£2495
Established in 1970 Brokenwood Wines is one of Australia’s most reputable premium wine labels and a must-visit in the Hunter Valley. Consistently listed as a 5 star winery, Brokenwood is home to the famous Graveyard Vineyard Shiraz, the highly acclaimed ILR Reserve Semillon, and the popular Cricket Pitch Range.

Brokenwood, along with a large number of Chardonnay producers, are harvesting much earlier than 10 years ago. This is partly due to a lot of vineyards reaching maturity, and therefore having great fruit flavour and concentration at lower sugar levels. Additionally, consumers are demanding more finely structured Chardonnay, meaning lower alcohols and less oak.

Approximately two-thirds from Beechworth the balance being from a combination of the Yarra Valley, Tumbarumba and the Hunter Valley.

Brilliant very pale straw almost water like core with greenish tinged edges. Aromas of white peach and dried honey mix with some biscuity oak notes, cashew and delicate citrusy nougat. Light to mid weight with good focus and a refined feel, the palate is detailed with nectarine and white peach fruits which meld into a back drop of subtle dried honey, nougat, biscuity oak and infusions of gun flint. Good intensity finishing with a burst of fresh acidity. Elegant medium to long aftertaste.

2023 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve, Cape Point Vineyards
£2495
An elegant Sauvignon Blanc with aromas of floral spice, cardamom and white pepper. Richly textured with generous notes of citrus and ripe nectarine through to the characteristic, lengthy mineral edge on the finish.

The estate is positioned on the narrow Cape Peninsula, where the confluence of sea breezes from the cold Atlantic Ocean, less than one mile away, and the southeasterly breezes from False Bay, create ideal conditions for the slow ripening of grapes. The grapes for this wine are hand-selected from three sea-facing vineyard parcels in the mid-levels of the estate, where a combination of the fresh breezes and decomposed granite soils result in a wine with a distinct mineral edge. The breezes, along with good canopy management, help to keep the vines healthy and diseases at bay, reducing the need for treatments. When the winds are strong, they also control the vine’s vigour and encourage a second suckering. The topography of the Noordhoek amphitheatre is also influential. It was carved from the Silvermine mountain over time, and as a result the soils of the estate vineyards are rich with decomposed granite, limestone and kaolin, imbuing the wines with their signature mineral quality.

2019 Single Vineyard Chardonnay, Auntsfield
£2495
The 2019 Single Vineyard Chardonnay from Auntsfield Estate is a commanding expression of Marlborough’s oldest winemaking heritage, carrying forward the legacy of the region’s first vineyard and winery, established in 1892. Today, the Cowley family honours this pioneering spirit by crafting exceptional wines from the estate’s unique soils, shaped by ancient Greywacke rock and Loess clay. Their unwavering commitment to expressing site and season results in wines of purity, texture, and unmistakable identity.

This Chardonnay is crafted exclusively from hand-selected fruit grown on the Auntsfield Estate, where meticulous vineyard management and low yields ensure optimal ripeness and concentration. The 2019 vintage reveals a rich straw gold hue, hinting at the depth and complexity within. On the nose, a medley of ripe peaches, mandarin peel, and lemon tart is layered with elegant notes of brioche and crème brûlée, courtesy of careful French oak ageing. The palate follows with precision and power: luscious stone fruit, peach and dried apricot meld seamlessly with a subtle nutty character, evoking roasted hazelnuts. Structured yet refined, the wine offers a tight, linear profile underpinned by the vineyard’s hallmark minerality, culminating in a long, poised finish.

2022 Riesling, Pegasus Bay
£2495
Pegasus Bay, a family-owned estate established by the Donaldsons in New Zealand’s Waipara Valley, is internationally acclaimed for its expressive, site-driven wines. The region’s large diurnal temperature range, long dry autumns, and stony Glasnevin Gravels create a distinctive environment ideally suited for Riesling. Pegasus Bay’s house style emphasises extended “hang time” and, when vintage conditions allow, a touch of noble botrytis, adding complexity and depth. Grapes are hand-harvested, and the free-run juice is slowly fermented at cool temperatures to preserve delicate aromatics. A gentle handling process retains a touch of natural spritz, enhancing freshness and liveliness. The result is a wine that captures the essence of North Canterbury with both vibrancy and finesse.

The 2022 Pegasus Bay Riesling shines in the glass with a luminous lemon hue, hinting at the energy within. On the nose, it bursts with a dynamic medley of citrus and exotic fruits, grapefruit, lime sherbet, green apple, and lychee lifted by floral overtones of rose petal and geranium. A subtle thread of flinty minerality adds depth and precision. On the palate, the wine is crisp and vibrant, its juicy fruit core carried by a fine acid line that perfectly offsets the off-dry style. A whisper of spritzig adds sparkle to the mouthfeel, enhancing its refreshing character. Structured yet refined, the finish is long, mouthwatering, and wonderfully moreish, making it as compelling with food as it is on its own.

2024 Sancerre Les Caillottes, Vincent Dauny
£2495
The Dauny family has been growing vines in Sancerre since 1683, making Vincent Dauny one of the oldest winegrowing names in the region. Today, Vincent represents the 13th generation to carry forward this remarkable legacy. Committed to sustainable and environmentally friendly practices, the estate has farmed organically for many years, well before it became fashionable, demonstrating a deep respect for the land and its expression.

The Les Caillottes cuvée takes its name from the prized caillottes soils, composed of small, white, chalky stones that are known for producing the most elegant and mineral-driven wines in the Sancerre appellation. These well-draining soils, combined with ideal vineyard exposure and cool continental climate, result in grapes of exceptional purity and aromatic precision.

In the glass, Les Caillottes opens with vibrant aromas of citrus blossom, gooseberry, and freshly cut herbs, layered with crushed limestone and hints of white peach. The palate is crisp, focused, and finely textured, with flavours of grapefruit, green apple, and lime zest gliding over a core of mouthwatering acidity. The signature caillottes (chalky pebbles) impart a flinty minerality and taut structure, leading to a long, clean, and elegantly saline finish.

This is a quintessential Sancerre, refined, expressive, and built for both casual sipping and fine dining.

2017 Semillon, Geyer Wine Co
£2500
Old vine Semillon – what an absolute joy and example of the amazing heritage of Australia. Whilst much of the Barossa is ripping out old vines to replace with money-making, high yielding Shiraz, Dave Geyer is working with some of the great farmers of the area, devoted to preserving the old vines and varieties of the area. As Dave says, “once a century-old vine is gone, several generations must wait to see what it could produce again. This instant gratification is one of the downfalls of the industry. We work closely together to preserve this part of our history to ensure these vines stand the test of time and to produce some epic wines! “

Punchy fruit-driven nose, with pink grapefruit, lemon balm and moringa flowers. Textured, nutty palate with flavours of dried mango, tangerine, lemon sherberts and a firm, grippy finish. The end of the bottle might be a little cloudier, but don’t worry, it’s just due to the choice of producing wine without filtration or fining.

The Geyer Semillon is a blend of fruit from three different vineyards, each vinified in a way to best represent the site. Component 1 and 2 are sourced from two 90-100-year-old sites in the Barossa Valley, one which goes straight to stainless steel to best retain its vivid, fruit aromas, whilst the other, with more reductive, smokey aromas goes to old oak. The third site is a younger vineyard in the Eden Valley – and this portion spends two weeks on skins, with 50% whole bunches. All components were blended upon completion of fermentation and aged in a 1950’s fortified wine foudre for six months. This old wood infused with sherry and flor characters really twisted the Semillon in an amazing Jura-esque way – crack a bottle and see! Bottled without any addition of sulphur or fining/filtration.
