Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame
Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame is name in honour of the famed and undoubted Champagne pioneer, widow Clicquot. Widowed at the tender age of 28, Madame Clicquot continued her late husband's work and is the sole reason why her Champagne house is held in the high esteem that it is today. The 1998 La Grande Dame is a wine of pure beauty and power. A majority blend of Pinot Noir, the vintage conditions are clearly visible in the glass with flavours of peach, apricot and touch of brioche and nuttiness. A true classic for the ages.
Krug Vintage Brut
In the words of no less than James Halliday, "Krug is the greatest wine of Champagne". At the House of Krug every Vintage is crafted to be different. Every Krug Vintage reveals the expression of a particular year with its distinct character: it is the music of the year as captured by Krug. It is a blend of expressive wines from a single year enhanced by a stay of over ten years in the cellars. The result a manifestation of time, place and feeling that verily leaps from bottle to flute.

Angas Brut Premium Cuvee Non-Vintage
Bottle fermented and aged on yeast lees, Angas Brut Chardonnay Pinot is a marvellous blend of 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay. It displays a pale straw colour with slight green hints noticeable throughout the wine. Lifted fragrances of strawberry, cream and biscuit characters from the Pinot Noir fruit makes the nose attractive, while the citrus notes, tight structure and fine acidity provided by the Chardonnay grapes on the palate counterbalance the aromas, leading to a lengthy and persistent climax. Made for drinking fresh and young, serve this wine chilled with Camembert cheese, bay scallops with garlic and parsley butter, and freshly shucked oysters.
Zonte's Footstep Water Fairies, Tasmanian Vintage Brut
With Jubilation, the encased fairies dance across the palate with effervescent elegance, offering enticing aromas of Hazelnuts, dried fruit & Orange Zest. The flavours draw you in with the magical incantation of Grapefruit coupled with creamy notes of pastry.
The Remarkable State Brut Cuvee Non-Vintage
Another cracker from the guys at Remarkable State Wines. Fruit was selected from both cool and warm climates to provide both a full fruit palate as well as zesty freshness. There's a fine bead, refreshing citrus characters and a crisp fruit driven finish. Its a smaller batch brut cuvee that's really a great all rounder, enjoy on its own or compliment with a mixed platter.
Laurent Perrier Millesime Brut
The Vintage Brut is white gold in colour with a fine sparkle. The nose displays both mineral and chalky notes giving way to elegant grapefruit and white fruit aromas. On the palate it is lively, the wine has depth with a persistent freshness and notes of bitter orange and lemon on the finish.
