Papagiannakos Retsina
Retsina hails from the hills of Attica and Central Greece and was traditionally made from the Savatiano grape variety. Vassilis Papagiannakos has taken it upon himself to raise the profile of this much-maligned style of wine. He does this by sourcing fruit from old, well-sited Savatiano vineyards. He then adds very controlled amounts of pine resin during a temperature controlled fermentation to ensure a delicate and well integrated blend of flavours and complexity.
Pacha Mama Pinot Gris
Sourced from a single vineyard site in the Strathbogie Ranges, ideally suited to growing aromatic and balanced Pinot Gris. The cool nights here allow the fruit to reach optimum ripeness whilst retaining an elegant balance between flavour, alcohol and acidity. This wine by Pacha Mama underwent lees stirring while in barrel, resulting in a buttery richness and complexity that sets the pinot gris style apart from the tighter, more acidic Pinot Grigio. Rich and inviting nose with white musk, fresh quince and honeysuckle. A generous and textural palate, with flavours of crýme brulee, lemon zest and musk, balanced by refreshing acidity and a satisfying, clean finish.
Pacha Mama Chardonnay
Pacha Mama has put down roots, out in the sticks, amidst the vines of Yarra Glen. This Chardonnay celebrates its Yarra Valley home. It's vibrant, yet complex. There's a bit of fruit, burnt matchsticks mingle with melon and citrus. It's all about harmony and balance.

Nautilus Estate Albariño Australia
GRAN VINO PAZO BARRANTES ALBARINO
The Pazo de Barrantes estate is situated in the Galician Salnés valley, in the heart of the D.O. Rias Baixas, and it is surrounded by 12 hectares of own vineyards planted with the Albariño variety. The estate's soils are granitic, with sand on the surface and an average vine age of 40 years. The winery was built next to the original stone manor house in 1991, and started to produce wine under the same philosophy as Marqués de Murrieta: to create estate wines that show the character and personality of the terroir from which they come. Pazo Barrantes was originally conceived as a great wine that expresses the true potential of the albariño grape and captures the essence of the Pazo de Barrantes estate. The wine is made in a slow, unhurried manner: long cool fermentation that lasts 30 days, 6 months of ageing in stainless steel tanks and acacia wood barrels, as well as further bottle ageing prior to release. The result is a truly unique Albarino, with an intense aroma of nectarine and yellow plum, hints of acacia blossom and fennel, with a vibrant, expressive freshness on the palate, and a broad, lively finish. This is a wine that expresses the hedonistic aromatics of Albarino, as well as the moreish textural qualities unique to the variety.
