Pale and luminescent green in colour, the aromatics are intensely floral with notes of white blossom, passionfruit pith, white nectarine, lemon balm and jasmine. The palate is energetic, focussed and lithe with cascading layers of exotic citrus of kafir and finger limes, just ripe passion fruit, guava, green mango and hints of tangerine and lemongrass. The wine has a vibrant pithiness, lively acidity lifts the fruit and gives the wine lovely drive. A touch of oak adds textural complexity with the finish is long and salivating.

A truly exceptional expression of chardonnay - Pale yellow with fine bubbles and persistent mousse. Delicate and floral, with a creamy mid-palate and a lingering, zippy finish. Apple aromas with hints of nut and toast. Primary fruit flavours of pears and apples and hint of nectarine. A gentle creamy texture, soft acidity and a long finish. Perfect with seafood particularly oysters and mussels.

The philosophy behind The Hidden Cave Margaret River collection encourages devilish thinking to create wines with a twist. On the first sip tropical fruits - passionfruit, mango, gooseberry. The zingy lime acidity finishes and cleanses the palate. With Integrated texture and crediatble length this is a must try wine!

Made by 5-star Halliday Winery Oakridge these Over the Shoulder wines offer excellent value for money. Dry, textural and crunchy with pristine pear flavours, this is a refreshing alternative to NZ Sauvignon Blanc.

Blend of two-thirds Sauvignon Blanc and one-third Semillon gets a touch of barrel aging, reflected in its silky texture more than any overt aromas or flavours. The palate is fruit-forward, offering hints of citrus, under ripe nectarine and green apple, finishing long and mouth-watering. Overall a youthful and vibrant blend.

Sourced from the original Dixons Creek Estate vineyard, this Chardonnay speaks of place and shines a light on one of the Yarra Valleys most prized grape varieties. Fresh, zesty citrus and melon jump from the glass supported by notes of almond meal and sublte French oak spice. The palate shows incredible clarity of fruit framed up by the considered use of new French oak. Barrell fermentation and lees stirring adds a level of richness and compexity delivering an wine that speaks of place. Drink now or enjoy watching the wine evolve over the years from careful cellaring.

Yering Station's Yarra Chardonnay displays citrus and subtle cashew notes on the nose with soft minerality and freshness. The palate has great texture and roundness with linear acidity with wonderful length and precision.

La Boheme Act One Opera Singer and Yarra Valley diva, Dame Nellie Melba, played the part if Mimi in 'La Boheme' based in the Latin Quarter of Paris in the 1800s. There were four acts in the opera, the last ending, as usual, in tragedy. Act 1 sets the scene for the characters; filtration, moonlight, impoverished artisans, working girls, embroidered flowers and of course, the anticipation of summer. This aromatic and cheeky Riesling with some interesting charcters of Pinot Girls and Gewitztraminer thrown in, conjures up a similar feel. Perfumed, textural, delicious.

This Pinot Gris has a bright straw colour with lifted aromas of honeysuckle pear and floral notes. Ageing in oak has given the wine a creamy texture and with crisp acidity on the finish.

A vibrant pinot noir from master wine-maker Rob Dolan out of the Yarra Valley. Lots of black cherries, plums, aniseed & spice brimming from the glass followed on the palate with savoury, truffle, velvety texture. The wine is dominated by savoury herbal characters with lovely chocolaty raspberry flavours. Will easily cellar for another decade if you can wait that long.
