    Tropa Reposado Tequila (750ml)
    Jalisco, MEXICO
    $320. 00
    Bottle
    $3840.00 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Note: Product comes in assorted colours and will be chosen at random.

    Dreamt up in Melbourne and conceived in Mexico, Tropa is a spirit as distinctive as its sculptural mushroom-shaped bottle (each finished with one of four collectible cap designs). Matured in American oak for three months, the result is a surprisingly intense, viscous, dessert-styled reposado that balances succulent roasted agave notes with decadent layers of vanilla, beeswax, caramel-chocolate and gently warming spice through to a clean, lingering finish. Whether it's being poured or simply displayed and collected, the vessel commands attention long after the first glass. Enjoy neat as an after dinner spirit, over ice, or as the foundation of a luxury cocktail. 40% Alc./Vol. NOM 1412

    1967 The Last Drop Glen Garioch 47 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - Plus 50ml bottle
    Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $9999. 00
    Bottle
    $119988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 45.4%

    Note: Product comes from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.

    The Last Drop was founded by three industry veterans who set out to track down extraordinary old stocks in forgotten cellars in order to bring whiskies of both great age and exceptional quality to the market. What can only be described as an obsession, they've committed a significant amount of time and energy scouring Scotland for buried treasure.

    This bottling represents The Last Drop's first-ever single malt. And they managed to pick a very old distillery with a detailed history of producing high-quality malt: Glen Garioch. From a time when they were making a sizable ratio of peated whisky, they were also floor malting, a practise mostly out of fashion. Another unusual trait was that this whisky spent 47 years in a reportedly “bourbon-style remade hogshead cask.”, which was unusual for the time. The results seem to speak for themselves, with many reviewers describing a thick, oily mouthfeel with tannic but fresh, sweet fruit and an iodine-laden smoky overlay. The word complex is used with abandon. No real surprise considering how long and well this whisky has been sitting. Exceptionally rare. 45.4% Alc./Vol.

    Tasting notes from one of the Last Drop trio, Andrew Rankin... This magnificent malt has matured with elegance. Heady notes of cognac-soaked fruitcake, marzipan and icing are balanced with ripe apricot and a hit of peaty smokiness, softening to a delicious vanilla and honey nectar.

    1978 Douglas Laing & Co. XOP Xtra Old Particular Port Dundas 46 Year Old Single Cask Limited Release Cask Strength Single Grain Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $799. 00
    Bottle
    $9588.00 Dozen
    ABV: 54.5%

    Another auspicious moment for grain whisky: Not quite the oldest, but up there with some of the most venerable Port Dundas bottlings to have ever graced our shelves. Either young or well-aged, output from this long-closed legend can be superlative, ranking among the best grains on the planet. Douglas Laing bottled 147 bottles from a single refill hogshead in 2024. The price of admission remains very reasonable. 54.5% Alc./Vol. Non-chill-filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... Flamed citrus and sweet spices on the nose. Tastes of pineapple toffee, corn oil and crushed sugar, finishing as an alcoholic vanilla ice-cream.

    Gabriel Boudier Maraschino Cherry Liqueur (700ml)
    Burgundy, FRANCE
    $69. 99
    Bottle
    $839.88 Dozen
    ABV: 30%

    While Luxardo is the ubiquitous standard, some cocktail enthusiasts consider Gabriel Boudier to be a superior alternative. Subtle notes of floral-scented chocolates, light marzipan, cherry confectionary and nutty stone fruits almost seem secondary to this liqueurs superb creamy mouthfeel. Let it shine in cocktails like the Aviation, Last Word, or Martinez variation. 30% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews...  The aroma reveals herbaceous notes intertwined with a surprising clarity, leading to a palate where the sweetness unfolds, though perhaps overly pronounced. A fragrant and floral essence emerges, giving way to a cherry finish that leans towards an artificial edge.  92 points - IWSC 2025

    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $3999. 00
    Bottle
    $47988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 50.1%

    Searching deep within the precious family vaults, Fred Laing himself has personally selected this superlative Macallan single Cask, said to be at its peak of perfection. Keen eyes will notice the label reference to his personal curation (part of his exclusive 'Chairman's Choice' Collection), setting it apart from the rest of Laing's 'Black' XOP range. This should be about as good as it gets. 246 bottles were filled from a refill barrel at 50.1% Alc./Vol. Non-chill-filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... Unceasingly delicious, anticipate roasted coffee and citrus tones with cereal; then apples and pears drizzled in syrup; plus Crème Brûlée amongst late sugary spices.

    $899. 00

    $10788.00 Dozen
    ABV: 49.7%

    This Speyside underdog operated between 1898 and 1902, and then again from 1965 until 2002 when it was finally dismantled. A few indie bottlings were trickling out but new releases have completely dried up in recent years. The flavour profile for this limited edition from Laing's sounds intriguing. 281 bottles were drawn from a refill hogshead at 49.7% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... Early peppered steak, autumn fruits and honey, followed by cedar, barley sugar and oak with a warm spicy finish, syrup and cough drops.

    1992 Douglas Laing & Co. XOP Xtra Old Particular Tormore 30 Year Old Single Cask Limited Release Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $599. 00
    Bottle
    $7188.00 Dozen
    ABV: 41.6%

    Given Tormore has mostly been a workhorse for blends, official bottlings didn't exist until 2004. Subsequent releases under Pernod Ricard never gained wide recognition, and the void has only been filled by independent offerings. In June 2022, Elixir Distillers (the company behind a slew of UK brands such as Port Askaig and Elements of Islay) took over Tormore distillery from the corporate giant. New bottlings have followed; however, this much-overlooked distillery will still be a novelty for most. Douglas Laing filled 276 bottles from single refill hogshead DL17247 at 41.6% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... The nose is attractively round and full of buttered burnt toast and milky cereal hues. On the palate detect butterscotch, malt, appealing spices and gentle lemon citric tones. That big malt impact is still therre on the finish, plus bourbon based vanilla flavours.

    1997 Douglas Laing & Co. XOP Xtra Old Particular The Black Series Clynelish 25 Year Old Single Cask Limited Release Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

    $11988.00 Dozen

    "...quite sublime." - whiskyfun.com

    Douglas Laing's new, luxury packaging for their 'Black Series' employs monochromatic colours complemented by gold foil details. Each bottle is hand-filled and features an embossed metallised label, glass stopper and the handwritten signatures of Fred and Cara Laing. Black moleskin cases carry a certificate of authenticity. Seldom on the market nowadays, this should be a no-brainer for Clynelish fans and savvy collectors. It's also a tiny outturn, with a mere 129 bottles decanted from a refill hogshead at 47.5% Alc./Vol. Non-chill-filtered.

    Other reviews... Colour: pale gold. Nose: we have a Clynelish that is much softer, much more on ripe banana, very gentle spices, old ointments, a very old bottle of Verveine du Velay, Arquebuse (has anyone tasted Arquebuse?) followed by very light tobacco, a bit of hay, even straw, and very ripe mirabelles. Not extremely typical, perhaps, but absolutely charming. Palate: it could be another distillery, I wonder if it was around this time that Clynelish had thoroughly cleaned its receivers and thus eradicated all the 'gunge' that gives the distillate its proverbial waxy side. In any case, even if it could be another distillery, it's a tremendous malt, soft, complex, very elegant, with honey rather than beeswax, almond paste, very ripe apples and pears, serviceberry liqueur... All this is really very pretty. Finish: medium length, refined, more on almonds and pistachios. Also reminiscent of a very high-quality amaro. A salty hint at the very end of the finish. Comments: quite sublime. I forgot to tell you that the citrus comes back for a second encore on your palate after two or three minutes. 89 points - whiskyfun.com

    Ron Barcelo Gran Anejo Rum (700ml)
    DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
    $79. 99
    Bottle
    $959.88 Dozen
    ABV: 37.5%

    Aged for up to six years in ex-Bourbon barriques. Frail opening scents are semi-sweet but vague. Second pass is better defined with light banana fritter, vanilla custard and crème caramel followed by a light to medium bodied profile with vanilla and monte-carlo biscuit flavours and delicate spices at the finish. Hints of caramel and coffee-flavoured milk in the aftertaste. Lighter styled with restrained sweetness and a degree of elegance. 37.5% Alc./Vol.

     Other reviews... Aromas of malted chocolate, toffeed nuts, cigarette tobacco, and delicate anise follow through on a soft entry to a dryish medium body with mocha and whipped cream notes. Finishes with a gentle buttery nutty toffee fade. A tasty dark rum for sipping or cocktails. 88 points (Highly Recommended) - tastings.com

    A limited edition, single batch Bunnah' from Master Distiller Ian MacMillan (not to be confused with another Bunnahabhain whisky of the same name which was from an Oloroso sherry cask). Non chill filtered and bottled at 46.3% Alc./Vol. for maximum flavour, expect an unusually smokey expression for this distillery “...refreshing with peat, smoke, iodine, diesel and sea air finishing long and smoky with tar and iodine”.

    $9588.00 Dozen
    ABV: 47.7%

    With the current official 25 year old approaching double the price, this looks to be very solid buying in the cask strength category. From a legendary island producer. Just 75 bottles were drawn from a refill hogshead at 47.7% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... Dried fruits & polished oak on the nose - developing to charred wood, peat smoke and dark chocolate with a finish of spice, malt and Orkney sea spray.

    Santo Domingo, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
    $73. 99
    Bottle
    $887.88 Dozen
    ABV: 37.5%

    Ron Barceló was founded by Julian Barceló, a Spanish émigré born in Mallorca. He founded the company in 1930 under the name Barceló & Co in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, having arrived in the country in 1929. It did not take long for the Barcelo brand to became an essential reference amongst local rum brands, growing into one of the biggest and most prestigious Dominican Companies. During the 1980s, Ron Barceló became the most popular rum in the Dominican Republic. Exports grew and the company began distribution outside of the Caribbean and America. In 1992, the company began an international campaign and, by 1994, Ron Barceló was exported to over 10 countries, with Spain as its biggest consumer. It's currently exported to over 50 countries.

    Obtained from fresh juice and aged for 4 years in ex-Bourbon oak barriques, Barcelo's Anejo pours a beautiful polished copper colour and offers attractive scents of dried coconut, vanilla slice, and dilute golden syrup. Creamy yet dry; middle weighted palate features pronounced vanillas with hints of roasted nuts. Finish is engagingly spicy adding length and depth. Ends with the vanilla / caramel theme playing out with reasonable length. 37.5% Alc./Vol.

    "A new kind of old Springbank—abstract, simple, magnificent." - whiskyfun.com

    When it comes to pricing, the trajectory of regular Springbanks is heading further and further north, which puts the value for luxury bottlings like this into perspective. Apart from the extreme age statement and the stellar quality, collectors should note the tiny outturn of this particular release - just 176 bottles from a single refill hogshead. As for the style, says one fortunate taster: "It's sublime. No need to say more. We've reached a level where we can't use words and all we can hope for is another half-centilitre." Be quick. Seldom do you find a Springa' that breaches the three decade mark at this sort of price. 46.3% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Colour: light gold. Nose: the house style when there’s no sherry. Direct, slightly fermentary, with raw wool, modelling clay, damp chalk, and slate… You get the idea—it’s rather mineral, simple, almost youthful, yet to me, of an almost Caravaggesque beauty. Nothing is missing, and nothing is superfluous. Mouth: citrus and pepper, plus seawater and apple juice. That’s it—it’s little, and it’s a lot. A new kind of old Springbank—abstract, simple, magnificent. Isn’t complexity overrated in whisky? (Of course not—pure b*ll*cks.) Finish: not the longest, but always ultra-precise, with liquorice, mint, lemon, ashes, and pepper. Comments: it’s great fun tasting these vintages, which we first tried when they were ten years old, back when their ‘flaws’ hadn’t yet become their strengths. Who said time isn’t a major ingredient in whisky—aside from accountants? 92 points - whiskyfun.com

    For a short while, there was a malt whisky distillery in the same complex as Invergordon (est. 1960), but these days the plant produces top quality single grain. Now a part of Whyte & Mackay, this version from Douglas Laing comes with a considerable age statement at a tempting price. The outturn from a single refill barrel was just 72 bottles! 49.2% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Light and vibrant yet intense and powerful finishing long, elegant and tense.

    Matured for 10 months in French oak (10% new) with 25% whole bunch inclusion. Semi translucent bright red colour with black toned edges and a light crimson red tinged hue. Wonderfully complex and alluring, the nose offers up aromas of violet, red cherry, strawberry and red liquorice infused with clove followed by forest floor, brambly cedar, rhubarb and spice notes. Light and vibrant yet intense and powerful, the palate is detailed with delicious red cherry, red liquorice and winter strawberry fruits. Infusions of clove, forest floor, bramble and spicy cedar lend further nuance. Finely built tannin structure with energetic acidity. The long, elegant finish showing excellent tension.
    Drink over the next 8-10 years.

    Other Reviews……
    This vineyard is planted to the MV6 clone. 3/4s of the berries are destemmed into an open fermenter on top of the remaining quarter, which is whole bunches. Pressed into French oak barrels, 10% new, the wine spent ten months maturing before a further six months in tank on lees. The colour here is a very pale crimson. This is an elegant style of Pinot with aromas of rose petals, red fruits, cherries, spices and bay leaves. A fine line of acidity, this is a medium weight style with very good length. On the palate, we see hints of red berries and even a hint of stalkiness emerging. The satiny tannins are finely woven throughout the persistent finish. A ten year proposition. Drink 2025-2035.

    The ’21 Grange was undoubtedly a hard act to follow, but here we see a ’22 that is up for the challenge. Yes, there is an underlying power, the kind you expect from sourcing fruit from the big three – Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra – in what was essentially a cool vintage. But there is also a subtle elegance and moments when the lilt and carry of fine spices brings notes more akin to syrah than shiraz. The rise of blue fruits amid blackberries, cassis, black cherry sits comfortably with savoury leather and woodsmoke, roasted coffee, black olive, liquorice, dark chocolate, pepperberry and a lifted and arresting, aromatic spiciness. The palate offers a deep richness and plenty of flesh framed in firm, fine tannins – sturdy but not aggressively so. Sustained power meets a rising complex elegance. 97% shiraz/3% cabernet sauvignon. Drink 2032-2060.

    97/3% shiraz/cabernet sauvignon matured for 18 months in new American oak hogsheads. A deeply fruited, powerful Grange release from vintage conditions that play into the hands of those who respect the wine's impeccable pedigree of longevity. Impenetrably dark in colour, with ripe satsuma plum, blackberry, blueberry and black cherry fruits at the base, with hints of ginger spice, black pudding, dark chocolate, pan drippings, purple flowers, barrel spice, licorice, soot, graphite, a light formic lift and a suggestion of something ferrous akin to the tang of a blacksmith's anvil. It's deep and resonant; the tannins are fine and sinewy, rising up through the dense fruit, tending to chocolatey as they coalesce. Acidity is fine and sympatico with the fruit weight, providing line and length as those powerful flavours stretch out fully. Tuck it away for a decade and have a peek, then perhaps make it two. Drink by 2076.

    Dave Brookes - James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion

    The 2022 Grange comprises 97% Shiraz and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Coonawarra. As always the wine matured for 18 months in American oak hogsheads (100% new). The 2022 vintage in South Australia was magnificent. I've loved the wines. It will always live in the shadow of the exceptional 2021 vintage. The season for Grange growers was shaped by a cool, measured growing season across South Australia. Good winter rainfall supported early vine growth, while unsettled spring weather, including hail, reduced yields, particularly for Barossa Valley Shiraz. A mild summer with few extreme heat events allowed slow, even ripening across key regions. Low yields, healthy canopies and extended hang time produced small berries, firm tannins, retained freshness and controlled power. Aromatically, the wine leads with licorice and blackberry, raspberry seed, cold tea and civet paste too. This is intensely concentrated (almost boring to mention that, given it is definitely the house style), powerful and black in character. Grange is made from fully ripe, structured Shiraz grapes sourced from South Australian regions. First produced experimentally in 1951, it has been made in every vintage since and is associated with the relationship between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia. The tannins are primal and arrive with a snarl; they linger once the wine has gone and show immense dominance over all but the fruit. It's a great Grange. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2026-2062.

    Erin Larkin – Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate

    There are times when a tasting of an icon wine can leave you slightly underwhelmed. This was not one of those times. Standing out like an A-lister in a spotlight among the 2026 Collection releases, this 75th anniversary vintage of Grange deserves every standing ovation the audience can give. Coming from a cool growing season – 'I always like the cooler years,' shares chief winemaker Peter Gago – 2022 blends fruit from Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Coonawarra, spending 18 months in new American oak hogsheads. Already offering so much aromatically, with a finely detailed nose that layers rose petals and spice with meaty and earthy tones; so fresh and harmonious. With just 3% of Cabernet in the mix, the palate showcases absolute purity of Shiraz fruit; somehow managing to combine plushness with elegance and vivid energy. Yes, you can deconstruct the impeccable tannins and trademark Grange volatile acidity; but I suspect you'll be swept up in the effortless balance and lingering finish of a wine that already feels so complete, though it also has decades ahead of it. Bravo! Drink 2026-2075.

    Hails from the Menzies Estate vineyard, smack bang in the middle of Coonawarra on those famous terra rossa over limestone soils. The aromas provide a slightly interesting departure from the fairly typical blackcurrant, which is still there but augmented with a subtle blueberry note. Typically elegant and poised, which is what you’d expect from Coonawarra, but there is a deceptive structural integrity here that gives it purpose and definition to carry through to a sustained long finish. It will continue to improve with further cellaring. Drink 2026-2036.

    There's a real elegance and charm here, with the cooler vintage showing through in black and blue berries, plum, sweet spice, ferrous earth and dried herbs. The palate is plush and silky with a metallic-edged austerity, rounded out by silky tannins and bright acidity. Lovely tension and purity, with plenty more to unravel with time in bottle. Drink or hold.

    Not the easiest of vintages, 2023 was cool and wet. This might explain the arrival of a new region to the St. Henri blend: Frankland River. It joins Port Lincoln and regulars McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley and Padthaway in what must have been a busy blending exercise. Keeps true to the style in warmth of personality. A deeply coloured wine with intense blackberry, plum, briar, earth, leather aromas. The texture is striking, layered in deep pile, fine tannins and tiers of ripe black fruits, spices that lift, notes of chocolate and earth and a clean, smooth run through to the finish. A challenging vintage once again proves the value of Penfolds multi-regional blending philosophy and turns out an impressive St. Henri. Drink 2026-2051.

    A very strong release for this classic Australian wine with a strong cellaring pedigree. Deep crimson in the glass with a purple edge and fruit tones of black cherry, satsuma plum, blueberry, and blackberry. Hints of brown spice, minerals, crushed herbs, tobacco leaf, dark chocolate-dipped cherries, black tea, roast meats and earth. There's a succulence and intensity to this year's release that is infectious; those enticing characters slowly shape-shift into something more savoury and vital at its core. The structure and fruit density suggest longevity is a given, along with balance and grace to boot. These are very good characters indeed. What a cracker. Drink by 2050.

    The 2023 St. Henri Shiraz was sourced from McLaren Vale (55%), Barossa Valley (21%), Frankland River (8%) and the balance from Port Lincoln and Padthaway. 2023 is the first time that Shiraz was sourced from Frankland River for the St. Henri, and this is significant, given it is Western Australia, when most of the fruit for the cuvées traditionally are sourced from the eastern states. To lend this comment context: 2023 was a cooler, wetter season in Barossa, a cooler season in McLaren Vale, and yet over in the west, it has shaped up to be one of the very best, most balanced, most energetic vintages in recent memory. So here, the 2023 St. Henri Shiraz is silky and fine, balanced and herbal, with star anise and shaved fennel, raspberry, milk chocolate, violets and freshness. It is really excellent. These current St. Henri's are very different in style to the early iterations of the cuvée, yet they manage to express a similar effortlessness and ease. I would say, on balance, that the alcohols are higher than the wines from the 1980s and before, yet the tannins are very polished and cleverly managed. I think this serves to set them apart or, at least, to create two schools of stylistic thinking—I am, for what it's worth, a fan of both. It matured for 12 months in large-format seasoned oak vats. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2026-2053.

    Of all the pinot noirs in the Quealy stable, this needs more time to find its groove.

    Made from 1960s-planted Grenache, this is a serious, super-concentration wine with more than a touch of Gandalf’s pipe on the nose! Only 100 cases were made, and it is the darkest and most cosmic wine I have tasted under this label. This is a fabulous, single-site, dry-grown vineyard with super-low yields. There is a deeply foresty wine with incredible DNA, and the palate is bloody, ferrous, complex and herbal. There is a deep, dark chocolate and cherry-red ganache rebound of flavour on the finish, making this sylvan creation decadent, too.
    19+/20
    Matthew Jukes

    The 2023 Les Amis Grenache is the highest in elevation of the three single-vineyard Grenache vineyards. It is planted on bluestone and ironstone gravels in clay soils, and the vines were planted recently—some time in the 1980s. The vineyard is exposed and the soils shallow, so the vines work hard here. In the mouth, this is spicy and medium-bodied, with an attractive freshness that has nothing to do with the ripeness nor, upon questioning, the pH or total acidity, as the numbers relate pretty similarly to the other Grenache wines on the bench. The cooler, wetter season may play a part. In short, this is a lovely wine! 15.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2026-2038.

    The wine that very much epitomises the concept of blending. 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and 47% Shiraz, the fruit has been sourced from Coonawarra, Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Padthaway. The oak used for maturation is a mix of new and older, all American oak hogsheads (34% new), for a period of 13 months. This is an exceptional 389. Black/maroon in colour with an opaque blood red rim, this is dense yet focused, intense and yet impeccably balanced. The nose offers aromas of charcuterie, bay leaves, cigar boxes, cassis, black fruits, chocolate, aniseed, dried herbs and tapenade. Exhibiting good early complexity, this is taut, polished and focused. There are hints of vanillin oak, but they are just lurking in the background, and the wine is beautifully integrated. A complete wine. There is a creamy texture, great length and silky tannins with the intensity maintained throughout. Wonderful stuff. For enjoying over the next twenty-five to thirty years. Every chance it will step up even further over that period. 2026 – 2056.

    This year's release of the much-loved Bin 389 sees a blend of 53/47% cabernet sauvignon/shiraz sourced across four regions and matured for 13 months in American oak hogsheads, 34% new. It's quite a tautly framed, 'classic' 389 release – fruit-pure, assured as always, and one that will have a long cellaring life. Dark and black berry fruits are suffused with sweet baking spices, roasting meats, licorice, dark chocolate, earth, violet, kirsch, blueberry pie, dried tobacco and barrel spice. The palate is layered, fruit pure and precise, with a medium tannin heft and an impressive length of flavour on the back end. This is one for those with patience. A classic. Drink by 2050.

    This vintage comprises 53% Cabernet Sauvignon and 47% Shiraz from Coonawarra, Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Padthaway, matured for 13 months in American oak hogsheads (34% new).
    The 2024 Bin 389 Cabernet Shiraz is sometimes (was?) referred to as "Baby Grange," partly because some components are matured in barrels previously used for the preceding vintage of Grange. First made in 1960 by Max Schubert, the wine combines Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz, bringing together Cabernet structure with Shiraz richness. The style is typically associated with a generous mid-palate—boosted or amplified by the élevage vessels of American oak—and a balance between fruit character and oak maturation. The 2024 vintage in South Australia has so far been sensationally exciting, and so I approach this iconic wine with positive anticipation. It's black and dark on the nose, with licorice and dark chocolate, crushed ant and black peppercorns. The palate is powerful, concentrated, impenetrable and long. It is gravelly and intense, as is key to the style. This is a very good rendition, though its best days are in front of it. It ages almost just as well as Grange, so 20 years seems very conservative. My vintage is 1986, and it continues to drink well today, in 2026. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2029-2049.

    Five South Australian wine regions, one red grape variety and two types of new and seasoned oak is pretty much the quintessential Penfolds recipe. At its heart, 407 is all about a varietal interpretation and hence the fruit comes first and it’s striking and irresistibly aromatic in scents of blue fruits, black cherries, plum, earth, dry leaves and a peppery spice, anise intensity. The palate delivers all that the nose promises and more with layers of chocolate, dark liquorice, hints of cumin, nutmeg and dark spice and more, fitted to robust, fine tannins. Oak – 12 months in French (16% new) and American (5% new) is as schmick as it comes, adding one layer of many in this multi-layered wine. Structurally, it’s solid as a rock, the kind of frame to build a long future on. 2026 – 2043.

    The 2024 Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon is a multiregional Cabernet blend, this year from Coonawarra, Padthaway, McLaren Vale, Wrattonbully and Barossa Valley. The wine matured for 12 months in French (16% new, 36% seasoned) and American (5% new, 43% seasoned) oak hogsheads. Aromatically, the wine is perfumed and leafy, layered with dark fruit and an abundance of spices. This is excellent, better than I ever recall seeing it, primarily perhaps because it feels distinctly varietal and fresh, leafy and detailed. It bears all the hallmarks of the Penfolds house style, of course, but this takes a backseat to the fruit, which I appreciate. This is excellent. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork.

    The 2024 RWT Bin 798 was sourced exclusively from the Barossa Valley, where the 2024 vintage performed exceptionally. The initials RWT stand for "Red Winemaking Trial," the name given to the project internally when developmental work began in the early 1990s. Now no longer a "trial," RWT Shiraz was launched in May 2000 with the 1997 vintage. Aromatically, the wine leads with a profusion of gravelly, earthy red and purple fruit, loads of tannins, pencilly oak and, just generally, loads of everything—lashings. I tend to respect the confidence of this cuvée; it is ever this way—muscly and structural, with an abundance of fruit but just as much tannin. It feels like the place more than the house. It matured for 14 months in French oak hogsheads (82% new, 18% one-year-old). 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2026 2044.

    Bottle
    $3000.00 Dozen
    ABV: 52%

    Marking the return of one of the distillery's most awarded releases, this whisky showcases what can be achieved with Spanish Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks and the signature elegance of Overeem's spirit. As with the inaugural release, Batch #2 feels more vivacious than most other PX matured single malts, and perhaps the better balanced for it. Instead of a predominance of sweet dates and heavy caramel, we have a malty, bitter chocolate profile, the spiced fruits leaning towards prunes and middle-aged brandy, the sherry sweetness rallying late - a solid example of a whisky where PX has a milder, more judicious impact. 52% Alc./Vol. Tasted from a 25ml sample.

    Notes from the producers... “The nose opens with dark fruits, figs and rich boysenberry compote, layered delicately with festive baking spice and subtle oak. The palate delivers waves of dates, treacle and tart grape, beautifully balanced by warming pepper spice and rich sherried sweetness. Gentle notes of milk chocolate linger throughout, leading into a long, oily and mouth-coating finish. At 52% ABV, the refined and elegant Overeem spirit continues to shine beneath the richness of the PX influence - creating a whisky that is both decadent and remarkably balanced from start to finish.” - Richard Mathews, Head of Whisky

Finishes dry and tense with impressive drive and a laser like focus.
    Drink over the next 6-8 years.

    The Garden vineyard is planted on the sandy flats of central Pokolbin, the grapes hand picked on 22 Jan, and whole-bunch pressed to tank for a slow cool ferment. It's a glorious semillon, unusually expressive for its age, both opulently rich and fruit-complex with Tahitian lime and Meyer lemon, backed by touches of nectarine. Drink by 2036.

    $150. 00

    $1800.00 Dozen
    Cellar: Drink now - 20 Years (2026-2046)
    ABV: 13.5%
    Closure: Stelvin

    Rich, concentrated and possessing terrific density yet retaining it’s hallmark refinement this is a Diana Madeline of great power.

    Certified organic and biodynamic this vintage is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, 3% Malbec and 2% Merlot. Maturation was for a period of 14 months in French oak, 50% of it new.
    Outstanding depth of colour featuring a pitch black heart and a deep dark red black tinged hue. Captivating the olfactory senses are soaring aromatics of blackcurrant, violet and mulberry which are complimented by spicy vanillin cedar, gentle tobacco, earth and subtle bay leaf notes. Rich, concentrated and possessing terrific density, the palate nonetheless manages to retain it’s hallmark refinement. Expansive blackcurrant and mulberry fruits are framed by firm muscular tannins which provide a great framework for long term cellaring. Dusty vanillin cedar, tobacco, subtle earthy dark chocolate, spicy black olive and infusions of fresh herbs lend further complexity. Outstanding power with a long, tightly compacted finish.
    Drink over the next 15-20 years.

    2024 was always facing a tough task following on from the truly sensational 2023 vintage. In Margaret River however, wonderful vintages seem the norm rather than the exception. 2024 broke records as the earliest, driest and hottest vintage experienced by the region, but the team found that biodynamic practices enabled the vineyards to come through and offer yet another superb DM Cab. Harvest took place over six pickings, on Fruit and Flower days and concluded on a Moon opposite Saturn astral event. The fruit was placed in a mix of amphorae and stainless steel tanks for wild fermentation and skin contact ranged from 15 to 78 days. Maturation was for an average of fourteen months, 50% of the barrels being new oak. The oak was a combination of puncheons and biodynamic barriques. The final wine is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon 5% Cabernet Franc 3% Malbec and 2% Merlot. Near black/maroon with a dark magenta rim, the nose reveals aromas of black fruits, tobacco leaves, cloves, a touch of axle grease, chocolate, cassis, aniseed and blackberries. Brilliantly structured, the texture is sleek and seductive with succulent fruit throughout. The wine is very, very long and finishes with the silkiest of tannins. A wonderful Margaret River Cabernet which will sail through the next twenty years. Over that period, there is room for further improvement. Drink 2026-2046.

    Very deep red-purple colour, with a beautifully fragrant nose of cedar, tobacco leaf, crushed mulberry and blackberry, the full-bodied and muscular palate sporting masses of tannins which are ripe and supple without astringency or bitterness. This is very concentrated and power-packed, and begs to be left alone for several years before broaching, and will pay off big time if cellared. Hide it away to get your full money's worth. A glorious cabernet blend of outstanding potential.

    A well fleshed Chardonnay with concentrated nectarine, pear and grapefruit flavours.

    Brilliant very pale straw colour with a distinctive green tint around the edges and a watery hue. Nectarine and grapefruit aromas dominate the nose with some subtle biscuity oak, almond, citrus and gun flint notes also evident. Concentrated nectarine, pear and grapefruit flavours carry a well fleshed feel across the mid weighted palate. Delicate dried honey, almond, citrus and gun flint elements line the back half. Good underlying freshness with a nicely shaped finish of ample length.

    Deep dark red black tinged colour with a bright purple red hue.

    Made with 50% whole bunches and matured in older puncheons and hogsheads. A vivid crimson purple. A very bright bouquet of red cherry, raspberry, rose and aromatic spices. Medium bodied, this fills out nicely on the mid-palate. I like the al dente tannins giving the wine structure and focus. An utterly delicious wine to drink now and over the next two to three years. Drink by 2029.

    Douglas Laing's Remarkable Regional Malts Blended Malt Scotch Whisky Gift Pack (6 x 50ml)
    SCOTLAND
    $54. 99
    Bottle
    $659.88 Dozen

    Douglas Laing have been well known as a bottler of blends, and since the mid 1990s, for two well-established independent brands under the very successful Provenance and Old Particular labels. About a decade ago, they expanded into a range of seriously good Blended Malts. It started with the instantly recognisable 100% Islay edition named Big Peat. That paved the way for what was to become their 'Remarkable Regional Malts’ series – vatting different single malt whiskies from each official whisky region and the islands. The collection doesn't cut corners, sourcing from some of Scotland's most respected names, including Macallan, Ardbeg and Caol Ila. The family's passion for these creations is partly explained by Cara Laing's personal affection for blended malts. “In a way, single casks are easy,” she says. “They’re either ready to be bottled or they’re not. Blended malts take more effort.” She adds, "...unfortunately, many people turn up their nose at blended malts, simply because some have a negative connotation with the word blend." 

    Since the launch of Big Peat in 2009 a slew of bottlings have followed. You can now take your tastebuds on a tour around Scotland with a series of playfully presented drams that include Scallywag from Speyside, Rock Oyster (now Rock Island) from the islands, The Epicurean from the Lowlands, The Gauldrons from Campbeltown and Timorous Beastie from the Highlands. For the first time, they're all represented in miniature format in one wonderful gift pack! Six 50ml bottles at an average of around 46% ABV are featured, with no coloring or chill-filtration, each embodying the overarching characteristics of the region they're sourced from. A more detailed breakdown of what the pack includes is as follows:

    The Epicurean (Lowlands) Crunched sugar, mixed spices, thyme, peaches and hard candy.
    Timorous Beastie (Highlands) Sweet, light barley and spicy honeyed tones with crunchy meringue on the finish.
    Scallywag (Speyside) Layer on layer of Sherry heritage - sweet stewed fruit, chocolate and cinnamon.
    Rock Island (The Islands) Brimful of maritime character, with sea-salt, pepper, gentle smoke and sweet honey.
    Big Peat (Islay) Big, leathery, ashy, coal-dusty marriage of Single Malts from Islay, with a sweet side, too.
    The Gauldrons (Campbeltown) Salty & maritime with a spicy finish.

    Sullivans Cove Double Cask Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)

    $3000.00 Dozen

    Note: This product is not sold as batch specific. Each unit will be a recent or current release. If you would like to know which batches are available, please email [email protected].

    [Batch 122 tasted] Matured in a combination of French oak x-tawny casks and x Bourbon barrels, the port input brings a sultriness to the bouquet, closer to the Double Cask profile we've enjoyed in earlier batches. Lightish in body, with a sweet toasted bread character and hints of baked pear in tow; ovaltine mingles with crystallised pineapple and dried peach through the finish. Affable, soft and 'fruity' - a good introduction to the distillery's most accessible whisky. Roughly 1400 bottles per batch at around 47% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered. Tasted from a 20ml sample.

    Other reviews... [Batch 118 tasted] Double Cask is ostensibly Sullivans Cove's most widely available bottling. Still, more expensive single-cask releases are far more common, and because Double Cask is their most affordable product, the handful of batches released every year get snapped up within hours. Double Cask has improved remarkably over the last decade, evolving from a base of average to poor quality casks to a true symphony played by an orchestra of cask types and conducted by production manager Heather Tillott. Batch number 118 is no exception, with Cadbury, apricot muesli bars and rolled oats leaping from the glass, with just a whiff of juicy tawny playing the bass notes. It doesn't translate with such intensity on the palate, and given its price, you might expect more cohesion. It sports a slight burn on the finish—nonetheless, it is a highly complex and enjoyable whisky. 90 points - winecompanion.com

    A deliciously fruity, off dry Riesling with zingy mineral infused acidity.

    From the Heart of the Rheingau in Germany, founded in 1720 and honed by over 300 years of winemaking tradition, Schloss Johannisberg is one of the worlds foremost Riesling producers. Overlooking the Rhine river, the vineyard sits on a quartzite hill and faces due south on a slope inclination of 45 degrees, offering perfect sunshine to ripen Riesling.
    Brilliant pale straw colour with green tinted edges and a watery hue. Lifted red apple, lime and orange blossom aromas drift out of the glass trailed by hints of honeysuckle and wet steel. Juicy red apple, lime, pear and mandarin fruits are underscored by zingy mineral infused acidity. Some honeysuckle elements linger across the long fruity, off dry finish.
    Drink over the next 6-8 years.

    A cool and distinguished riesling Kabinett with aromas of red apples, vineyard peaches and red forest berries. Sleek and very focused on the barely medium-bodied palate. I love the way the stony acidity really shines at the long and crystalline finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

    The 2023 Schloss Johannisberg Rotlack Riesling Kabinett is clear and fruity on the upfront nose that indicates ripe, intense and elegant fruit intertwined with deep and flinty/spicy terroir notes. Medium to full-bodied, intense and savory on the palate, this is a lush and quite intense, complex, if not powerful, and seriously structured Kabinett with the generosity and tension of the vintage and also its savory acidity (8.6 grams per liter). 11% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in early July and again at the domaine at the end of August 2024. Drink 2029-2055.

    A luscious, slippery textured Chasselas with a long, dry finish.

    In the 1960’s, Robert Schoffit was part of the group of people who fought to retain Chasselas in the Alsace grape register. Old Chasselas vines were planted in 1939 and between 1942 and 1954 were a specialty of the estate. This is from a small, 0.9 ha parcel of Chasselas planted in 1940 on alluvial soils of gravel in Colmar. Entirely hand-harvested, whole-bunch pressed and fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks. The old age of the vines gives density and complexity to this dry Chasselas.
    Brilliant pale straw colour with straw tinged edges and a watery hue. Exotic rosewater, lychee and ripe pear scents show impressive intensity followed by some honeysuckle, quince and ginger spice notes. Luscious lychee, red apple and pear fruits are counterpointed by an underlying brisk acidity which brings a gentle zing to the otherwise slippery textural feel. Delicate honeysuckle and ginger spice characters sit in the background. Long and dry with a lick of ginger spice lingering across the finish.
    Drink over the next 3-4 years.
