    Rich, concentrated and creamy textured with a long beautifully shaped finish.

    Walnut Block’s Chardonnay, planted in 1996 with the Mendoza clone, is known for its low yields and ‘hen and chicken’ fruit set which provides a high skin-to-juice ratio, thus resulting in a wine that possesses both depth and concentration of flavour. Maturation takes place in French 500 litre oak puncheons with wild yeasts from the vineyard providing a natural fermentation. The wine is left to develop in barrels for a period of 12 months.
    Brilliant pale straw colour with highlights of green around the outskirts and a watery hue. Expressive white peach, nectarine, dried honey and cashew scents sail from the glass with ample intensity followed by some biscuity nougat and spice notes. Rich, concentrated and creamy textured, the palate is layered with white peach, nectarine and dried honey flavours. Cashew, biscuity nougat and spice elements are interspersed throughout the back half. Beautifully shaped it finishes long with a lick of underlying freshness.

    Chalambar Shiraz was first crafted in 1953 by Australian winemaking legend Colin Preece. Named after the picturesque Mount Chalambar located in Victoria’s Grampians region, this wine is produced from a blend of Victoria’s two finest terroirs for Shiraz, the Grampians and Heathcote.

    Possessing all the hallmarks of Central Victorian Shiraz, this is a sensational value at just $16.99.

Sailing out of the glass with plenty of intensity are aromas of blackberry, liquorice and black cherry followed by some vanillin cedar, subtle scorched earth and blackpepper notes. Rich and lush, the medium to full bodied palate is swamped with ripe black cherry, liquorice and blackberry fruits which are framed by mildly chewy tannins. Scorched earth, spicy vanillin cedar and blackpepper elements linger through the long, sumptuous finish.

    Rich, deep and powerful yet refined and silky with great structural attributes and a blackpepper laced finish.

Expressive blackpepper infused aromatics of dark plum, liquorice and black cherry flow through the olfactory senses followed by spicy vanillin cedar, fennel and scorched earth notes. Rich, deep and powerful yet refined and silky in it’s movement across the palate, plush black cherry, liquorice and dark plum fruits are featured over a scorched earth, graphite, spicy vanillin cedar and blackpepper background. Great structure with polished, seamlessly integrated tannins and a long, generously fruited, blackpepper laced finish.

    At the risk of repeating myself, this is one of my very favourite Australian Shiraz. I love it. Always have. Love the perfumed aromatics that get things started. Vibrant ripe cherry and blackberry notes, with a liberal coating of dark chocolate. Traces of cracked black pepper and graphite emerge with breathing. Managing the oak is fundamental to St Peters and winemaker Clare Dry uses an old French vat, older barriques and just 24% new oak. Interestingly, Dry also uses a small amount of whole bunch ferment which appears as the slightly flinty palate characters. Another cracking good wine. Drink by 2024-2049.

    Ray Jordan – WinePilot.com

    A blend of fruit off four blocks in Seppelt Great Western vineyards. Fermentation includes whole bunch (10%), maturation in French oak (24% new). The second St. Peters release under Clare Dry, who has instigated a reduced new oak regime, allowing beautifully fragrant, compelling fruit to shine. Demands your attention in heady scents of wildflower, bay leaf, black cherry, blackberry and spice. Keeps the momentum up with complexity on the rise and the odd side step into savouriness, as the palate unwinds in peppery black fruits, woodsy earth and Grampians-led bright spices. Drink by 2041.

    Classic tense, steely Hunter Semillon with some tertiary characters beginning to shine through.

    Brilliant pale straw core with a distinctive green tint to the edges and a watery hue. Elevated lime, lemon butter and green apple aromas are interwoven with hints of bees wax, oily toast like notes and wet steel.

    Hand-picked fruit from the Blackberry Vineyard is pressed without destemming to allow quick drainage. The wine sees some post-ferment lees ageing to add texture to the mid-palate. This wine shows signs of the vintage with its concentrated mid-palate, gentle, smoky development and ripe pear and honey notes. That said, the palate is still fresh and tight, and of all the 2018s tasted, this is perhaps the least evolved. The palate is beautifully cleansing. Take care not to over-chill. Drink by 2028.

    Whisky Craft Jura 36 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Isle of Jura, SCOTLAND
    $699. 00
    Bottle
    $8388.00 Dozen
    ABV: 48%

    Decanted from an octave cask (typically around 45-50 liters), just 66 bottles of this island gem made it to market. At first sniff, a spritely, salty quality overlays the barley, a bit like green olive brine, then, almost like a dry Madeira on the palate, though with more intensity from the uncut sprit. Finally, a lovely fruity quality enters. Water is required to accent those tropical notes, bringing juicy dried mango and light beeswax, mellowing the palate without diminishing the length. Typical of extra-aged bottlings from this distillery, the style here is rather feminine, quietly complex and seemingly unique to Jura. Cask #900869 tasted. 48% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... Nose: Mellow and sophisticated, with aromas of warm lemon pastry, sea air, sweet orange, and crème brûlée. Palate: Light and buttery at first, evolving into rich layers of caramelised brown sugar, custard, followed by a familiar oiliness. Finish: Gently spiced with clove and cinnamon, balanced by honeyed sweetness and a light peppery lift.

    A fresh, easy-drinking red of forest berry fruitiness, minty herbal elements, white pepper, some clove and cinnamon spice. Juiciness upfront and whips away to a fine but quickly dusty finish. Some black olive, gingery spice and salted licorice, too. This feels pretty smart for the bucks, a sense of restraint and elegance on hand. Good for it. Drink by 2032.

    From vines with an average age of 50 years old with maturation taking place in French oak hogsheads. Dense pitch black heart with a very deep bright dark red black tinged hue. Liquorice, black cherry and blackberry aromas show impressive intensity out of the glass trailed by some spicy vanillin cedar, scorched earth and blackpepper notes.

    Mainly from vines around 50 years old, and all estate fruit on terra rossa soils. A little less new oak this year (20%) but same élevage at 18 months. The cooler year has presented a finer, more fragrant offering, with wild red berries and cherries, dried herbs and subtle earthy complexity. It’s a very charming wine, more to medium weight, that bears the current-day Coriole stamp of light-handed making, framing fruit and vintage. Drink by 2030.

    Light to mid weighted with Morello cherry and plum fruits in the drivers seat and an elegant finish.

    100% Touriga Nacional, sourced from the Bassham Family’s Organic and Biodynamic vineyard. One of Portugal’s most revered grapes, Touriga Nacional is famed for its perfume, structure and depth. Destemmed fruit was lightly foot-trodden to release juice for wild fermentation, with the ferment hand-plunged twice daily. After 14 days, the must was basket-pressed into 500L puncheons (10% new oak) for 10 months’ maturation, before blending in tank by gravity.
    Deep dark red black tinged core with a dark red hue. A mix of morello and black cherry scents greet the nostrils followed by some scorched earth, leather and spicy dried herb notes. Morello cherry and plum fruits drive the light to mid weighted palate with some liquorice, earth and spicy dried herb elements sitting in the background.

    The adjectives get a real work out with this little beauty, but suffice to say that is one tightly layered, complex, energy-driven, totally delicious youngster. Brings together all the class you might expect from Mornington Peninsula’s signature red grape with a vibrancy that entices. Dusty red cherry, cranberry, leaf, potpourri, rose and gentle spices light up the scent. It’s a most welcoming introduction and, from there, it moves into a beautifully expressive palate lit up in aromatics with a touch of violet and delivered with nicely judged oak. Acidity runs bright through the finish. Drink 2025-2034.

    Van Winkle Special Reserve Lot "B" 12 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey (750ml) - 2015 bottling

    $2499. 00

    $29988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 45.2%

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

    Bottle code: B 15 148 13:57 4 - Buffalo Trace 2015 - May 28th - 1.57pm - Bottling line 4.

    Lot 'B' 12 year old comes with a swag of rave reviews from blind tasters, including 90-95 points - Wine Enthusiast Magazine (winemag.com), 98 points - Beverage Tasting Institute (tastings.com), Best in Class Gold Medallion - 2008 IWSC (iwsc.net) and a Trophy for Worldwide Whiskey - 2008 IWSC (iwsc.net).

    Some have asked, "Why is this whiskey drawn from 'Lot B' every year and not some other?" Apparently, the designation derived from an original 'Lot A' released only in 1991. For every subsequent release, it's been called 'Lot B'. More on this subject from straightbourbon.com: "I’ve always assumed that Julian III went through his stock of barrels that were older than the 10 year range and took the barrels that he did not think were worthy of continued aging for inclusion in future PVW releases and bottled those as Lot B. With Lot B indicating that they weren’t his best juice. At the time of the 1991 release of course there was no such thing as PVW as it hadn’t been released yet. I believe the first ever PVW release was in 1994. So maybe in 1992 he had decided that he would start setting aside his best barrels for future super premium older releases, and decided to start bottling those that didn’t make that cut as B then?"

    One responder who actually emailed Julian Van Winkle for an explanation confirms: "It's pretty much to that affect, Lot A was small and ran out quickly. Lot B was much larger and by time those barrels ran out, everyone got so used to his 12 year old release being called Lot B that the name stuck so as to not confuse anyone." Hence, the designation is pretty much meaningless, except from an historical perspective.

    Other reviews... For those who like their Bourbon hairy, bristling with spice, honey and big oak interaction.

    From the United States’ largest independent family-owned spirits producer and marketer, Heaven Hill Distilleries, Inc., Parker's Heritage Collection is a limited annual series of rare, aged American Whiskies that pays tribute to 6th Generation Master Distiller, Parker Beam's 45+ years of service.

    ...If you haven't had a lot of experience with American malt whiskeys, this one might be a little bit of a shock for you. While it has flavor similarities to bourbon, there’s no confusing the two. Light notes of toffee and butterscotch are present alongside notes of grass and cedar. Even though the mashbill consists of 65% malt, the sweetness from the corn still pulls through. This creates an interesting interplay between the sweet and oak notes. Overall the palate’s flavors are on the mellow side, which makes it very drinkable, though I do wish it had more richness in its flavors. It might not be a very complex palate, but all of the flavors do an ample job of standing out on their own...

    ...At 108 proof, the finish is surprisingly smooth and very drinkable. It rapidly expands and contracts in your mouth and then lingers for a good amount of time afterwards. Oak once again dominates, but the other flavors from the palate blend together and help counter the oak’s at-times brashness...It’s a nice oak-foward finish with just the right amount of accompanying flavors to produce a satisfying conclusion... 3.6 out of 5

    The colour for this first-rate wine shows a brilliant, bright red and slight crimson hues. The nose captures the varietal spices and the dark, plummy blackberry notes that you expect, with a little meaty game. The palate opens to reveal ripe red fruit characters, with just a hint of spice and a touch of ironstone. Tannins are slightly chalky, and the oak is neatly engaged, as a result of 13 months in new and seasoned French oak hogsheads. It’s soft and generous, with good cellaring potential for the next 10 years. Drink 2025-2035.

    Estate grapes planted in the '50s and '80s; extended post-ferment maceration, pressed to French oak (25% new). A fine partner to the maker's warmer (northern) Colbinabbin cabernet, emphasising liveliness of spice and an all-round firm tannin and varietal intensity. Cassis, leafy aromas, black and purple fruits, roasting herbs and light florals offer a gentle, youthful complexity. Quite effortlessly smooth and well honed on the palate, with a touch of hazelnut oak layered through. Tannins are deceptively firm. Will last the distance. Drink by 2036.

    From a very well-known family owned estate with an Italian-Australian heritage, this McLaren Vale winery burst onto the scene in the early 2000’s when the then, world's most powerful wine critic, Robert Parker, lauded many of the wines with scores in the high nineties.

    Great value McLaren Vale Shiraz from a sensational vintage. After a cool fermentation, the wine spent 14 months in a mix of French (75%) and American (25%) oak hogsheads. We have notes of mocha, spices, plums, coffee beans, chocolate, blackberries, tobacco leaves and aniseed. A richly flavoured palate, which is really rather attractive. Good focus, balance, and length with silky tannins. There is generosity and richness here. Cracking value to enjoy over the next six to ten years. I know there can be a reluctance to give wines at lower price points high scores, but this one deserves it. Drink 2024-2034.

    2021 is a superb vintage and its beauty shines through the wines, from entry level to top-drawer. All the classic signatures of fine shiraz, fresher and cooler climatic of feel than its origins suggests, even at this approachable line. Blue fruits, lilac and nori. Perfumed, mid-weighted and brisk. Perfectly judged. It would be hard to find better value, irrespective of origin. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

    A deliciously juicy Heathcote Sangiovese.

    The 2024 Osicka Selection Sangiovese was grown at Gerard Kennedy and Lucy Runnalls vineyard on the Eastern slopes of the Mt Camel Range. Maturation took place in a combination of older oak (40%) and a concrete sphere shaped vessel (60%). The softer oak component had a more complex flavour profile whilst the portion stored in concrete brought intense primary fruit and structural drive to the blend.
    Deep dark red black tinged colour with a dark red hue. Expressive red currant, cherry and red liquorice aromas fill the nostrils followed by some tobacco, earth and spicy dried herb notes. Moreish ripe red currant, red to dark cherry and red liquorice fruits show impressive intensity and flesh across the mid weighted palate. Spicy tobacco, dried herb and earth elements sit in the background. Slightly chalky tannins and fresh underlying acidity lead into a long juicy finish that has plenty of spice to it.

    Normally Simon Osicka sends through detailed notes on wines, and these seem to have arrived from the astral plane. Maybe he did send something and I lost the memos, though have had a dig around and nada. Anyways, minutiae of my day, hey? These ‘Selection’ wines come from outside the estate, and posit another level of value and value add to the existing Osicka stable of wines. This wine feels like a red someone would drink in a tavern, taverna, bistro or trattoria – varietal, accessible, x-factor, deliciousness. Not quite the right label here but close enough. At $28 at full whack this is another gift from the Osicka family.
    Red cherry, stewed and fresh, some pomegranate juice, a dash of woody spices, some blood orange, a lick of dark chocolate, a pinch of pepper. Tannins tumble in with a gruff but pleasing and somewhat light chew. A graphite mineral line lends detail and a lift. Acidity takes its cue from the blood orange. Pitch perfect. It sits at around medium weight, it’s chuggable and gluggable and damn good. Drink 2025-2030.

    From a two-hectare 76-year-old estate block in Blewitt Springs on typically deep sands. This was fermented with 25% whole bunches, then matured in older French puncheons for seven months. Those sandy soils are writ large on the nose, which is so fragrantly lifted and expressly red fruited and floral scented. It would be easy to get carried away and be seduced by that alone, but there’s a serious pulse to this, too, with a thread of fine silty tannin and a seasoning of darker spices. In short, it has oodles of charm equalled by cool composure and savoury refinement. It’s very good. Drink by 2035.

    This is Penny’s Hill’s second vintage of this wine from 76 year-old bush vines in the sandy soils of Blewitt Springs. It saw 25% whole bunch and was left on skins for 10 days before maturation on lees in French puncheons for seven months. 14% abv. 253 dozen made. This is a beautiful wine. It’s fragrant, it’s supple, it’s lithe. It nails the charm that quality modern day Grenache is acclaimed for with its succulent mix of red fruits and spice. Raspberry, bergamot tea leaf, poached strawberry and white spice make way for savoury warm sand and subtle garrigue. Air unlocks a saline minerality through the wine’s core. It’s very moreish and classy. The palate sits high, dancing through the mouth with intensity but never weightiness. Raspberry leaf, macerated strawberry, red liquorice, white pepper, subtle earth and a hint of red apple skin. Incredible tannins here, they’re so fine, long and ductile; melting around the fruit and wrapping the palate in a sheath of silty texture and carrying the red fruits and spice through to a long and elegant finish. A beautiful wine indeed.

    Bush-vine grenache off 76-year-old vines at Blewitt Springs in McLaren Vale. 25% whole bunches in the ferment and no new oak. 253 dozen only. Penny’s Hill is on the up and up.
    Beautiful wine. Fragrant, delicate, powerful where it needs to be, delicious through the core of it. Raspberries, dried herbs, roasted spices, a whisper of anise, a sense in general that an open field of grenache has been invited to your table. This wine does not lack precision or tension, indeed it’s well versed on both counts, but it feels unleashed and free in the best of ways. Put Penny’s Hill and this wine on your radar. This is $50 very well spent. Drink 2025-2032+

    Fresh and juicy with a generously fruited spice laden finish.

    Dark red black tinged core with a dark red hue. Aromas of dark cherry, anise and earth drift through the nostrils with some incense and spice notes also chiming in. Juicy dark cherry and anise flavours overlay an earthy incense and spicy dried herb back drop. Slightly chewy tannins with fresh acidity and a generously fruited spice laden finish.

    A rich, voluptuous power packed Heathcote Shiraz.

    Partial whole bunch fermentation with maturation taking place in French oak (40% new) for a period of 20 months. Impenetrable pitch black heart with a near equally deep dark red black hue. Wafting through the nostrils are aromas of ripe blackberry, liquorice and black cherry followed by some spicy vanillin cedar and peppered fennel notes. Rich, decadently textured and lavish, the full bodied palate is engulfed with black cherry, liquorice, blackberry and black plum fruits. Vanillin cedar, subtle scorched earth and peppered fennel elements lie in the background. Power packed it has velvet smooth tannins and a long voluptuous finish.
    Drink over the next 4-5 years.

    A fleshy, mid weighted Cabernet Blend with red to dark fruits and a long savoury finish.

    Dark red core with black shaded edges and a red to dark red hue. Ripe red to dark currant and mulberry aromas are trailed by subtle tobacco leaf, dried herb, earth and spicy cedar notes. The fleshy mid weighted palate features red and dark currant, mulberry and rhubarb fruits over dried herb, brambly cedar, subtle tobacco leaf and spice characters. Fine, polished tannin structure with a long savoury finish that shows plenty of spice.
    Drink over the next 3-4 years.

    A blend predominantly of cabernet, with smaller contributions from merlot, cabernet blanc, malbec and petit verdot—a Bordeaux blend. The cooler season has delivered a wine of elegance and charm. It bursts with vibrant red fruits and a slightly leafy red currant note. The palate is seamlessly knitted with fine, silky tannins and lightly applied oak, all wrapped around the fruit to create a poised, long and compelling wine. It's highly fragrant, thanks in part to the cabernet franc, and altogether delightful.

    This is lovely for its restraint and approachability, which makes it very easy to drink. Violets and spice, raspberry leaf and freshly rolled tobacco with a hint of menthol. Barely medium bodied, this is finely tuned with sweet red berries, mulberries and cassis, a smidge of cedary oak. There’s a certain elegance here, a softness to the palate, the tannins fine and feathery, acidity bright and the finish lingers. Gorgeous now and will offer more with age. Drink by 2034.

    Rich, dense and concentrated with a plush feel and some firmness across the finish.

    Matured for 15 months in French and American oak. Dense inky black heart with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Ripe blackberry, liquorice and dark chocolate aromas waft out of the glass trailed by vanillin oak and mocha notes. Rich, dense and concentrated, the full bodied palate carries a plush feel with ripe blackberry, liquorice and toasty vanillin oak flavours to the fore. Earthy mocha and subtle pepper elements sit in the background. A sturdy yet velvety tannin structure lends some firmness to the long opulent finish.

    Decent flavour and a bit of spread to the finish; this is a good release from Zema. Redcurrant and plum flavours with mint, cream and woodsy spice. It's medium weight and feels well finessed. Drink by 2032.

    This fine Coonawarra Shiraz was fermented on skins for ten days before fifteen months in a mix of French and American hogsheads. These Estate wines are absolutely nothing if not fabulous value. The colour here is a near opaque purple. The nose exhibits finely handled oak and the wine oozes purple fruits along with mulberries, chocolate, vanilla, plums and dried herbs. The wine is balanced with finesse and focus, and fine satiny tannins. Very long, this is a ten to fifteen year proposition and a cracker. And by the way, with already five years ageing in the Zema cellars, this is a no brainer. Drink 2024-2039.

    Established in 1969, Taltarni Vineyards is one of the pioneering wineries of Victoria's Pyrenees region and has built a long standing reputation for the quality of their Sparkling wines. Their Cuvee Rose is one out of the box delivering terrific value for just $20.

    A savoury, flavour packed Sparkling Rose.

    A blend of 52% Chardonnay, 39% Pinot Noir, 9% Pinot Meunier aged for a minimum of 2 years on lees. A satiny mousse slowly fades into a salmon pink coloured base that has a fine, persistent bead coursing through it. Attractive pear and strawberry aromas intermingle with raspberry, brioche and subtle lees notes. Crisp and stimulating, the palate has a savoury, flavour packed profile of pear, strawberry and raspberry fruits which meld into a brioche, yeast lees and baked bread background. Lively acidity with a long, very dry finish that has a slightly chalky feel to it.

    Other Reviews….
    A blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot meunier sourced from a range of Victorian and Tasmanian vineyards. This salmon-pink rosé is beautifully complex, with gentle savouriness giving the mid-palate presence and depth. A thread of gorgeous acidity sails effortlessly through the wine. Every element is beautifully balanced and refined, from the warm strawberries and baked bread nuances to the faint dried rose petal tones. A sophisticated drop, simply excellent for the price!

    2015 Signatory Vintage Ben Nevis 9 Year Old 100 Proof Edition #48 Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $119. 99
    Bottle
    $1439.88 Dozen
    ABV: 57.1%

    "...impresses with astonishing depth and maturity for a 9-year-old whisky." - whiskybase.com

    Our last direct import shipment of Signatory Vintage's 100 Proof series delivered some knockout buys. The range has been acclaimed for bringing value back to the independent category in a big way. With a fresh consignment just landed, there's plenty more fun to be had. We're kicking off with two well-sherried malts from one of our favourite, though rarely encountered West Highlanders.

    It's never been a big brand, with a measly 25,000 bottles typically sold annually. Yet, Ben Nevis is a bit of a star amongst aficionados. Since 1989 when the distillery was sold to Nikka, the majority has been sold as 'Japanese' whisky (hence, you can confidently say Ben Nevis has contributed to the current glory of many a Japanese, too). The distillery's official 10 year old comes out of a mix of Bourbon, sherry and red wine casks. First-fill oloroso matured expressions like this are far less common. Consensus is that while it lacks the distillery’s hallmark peated signature, this 100 Proof bottling boasts fabulous depth and maturity for a 9 year old. 57.1% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Taste: Spicy and assertive, with pepper leading the way. Bitter almond shells and cocoa intertwine with thick tannins that coat the tongue. Earthy humus, and smoky soil. Cooked raisins return, lifted by a faint zest of lemon and a wave of spices. Finish: Medium in length, monolithic yet memorable. Dark chocolate bitterness, stewed fruits, damp earth, and lemon zest linger, leaving a dry tea-like aftertaste. - whiskybase.com
