John Duval Entity Shiraz
John Duval rose to winemaking fame as the craftsman of the mighty Penfolds Grange, before going it alone to further forge his reputation as a maker of great Shiraz. The aim of The Entity is to produce a wine true to the region. Rich and complex it shows ripe, spicy fruit characters with a complex savoury oak influence framed by fine lingering tannins.
Chris Ringland CR Shiraz
Chris Ringland Shiraz has been one of Australia's most loved wines over the past few years with its immense concentration of bold, forboding fruit. Chris Ringland, the man behind such famous names as Three Rivers Shiraz, creates a wine that is made from mature Northern Barossa vines and shows dark mass of concentrated black and blue fruits, laced with sweet mocha and wrapped in a smooth, velvety texture. Not for the faint of heart, the CR Shiraz is improving vintage on vintage.
Bunnamagoo Shiraz
The nose shows complex savoury, earthy, bramble aromas with lifted American oak. The palate is medium bodied with bright red currant and hints of spice and blackberry.
Chateau Du Moulin A Vent
Tar & Roses Sangiovese
Tar & Roses can not only be used to describe the wonderful Meditteranean aromas and flavours of this Heathcote winery, but also the wonderful team of Don Lewis and Narelle King! This Heathcote Sangiovese shows the classical sour cherry flavours with a balanced and integrated structure that is crying out for a antipasto plate.
Mystery Yarra Valley Gamay Deal No. 71
From the Six Js vineyard in Steels Creek. Totally destemmed and fermented and matured in stainless steel. The result is a beautifully vibrant wine with aromas of pure, ripe raspberries, summer cherries and a touch of spice. The palate is equally energetic with its core of bright fruits, super fine and silky tannins and juicy acidity. A total joy to drink now and over the next 2-3 years.
Coriole Shiraz
Vibrant in colour the nose shows plum and berry fruit with spice pepper and well integrated oak. The palate has good fruit weight with attractive berry flavours and a fine tannin finish.
Voyager Estate Shiraz
Voyager Estate Shiraz is deep red in colour with an explosive nose of oak blackberries and spice that is succeeded by a rich flavoursome palate and some chewy tannins. Will improve wonderfully with time.
Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais-Villages
Made from the Gamay grape variety it is surprising that Beaujolais is not more popular in Australia! Soft, juicy and delicious - this is the ideal picnic companion.
Maison Louis Latour Beaujolais Villages
The Louis Latour Beaujolais-Villages comes from 35 selected towns originating from granite soils, which bring a crunchy freshness that is typical to the region's the indigenous Gamay grape.

With its deep colour and garnet tints, this Beaujolais-Village 2020 offers pleasant aromas of wild strawberries and myrtle. The palate is round with smooth, chalky tannins and unveils black cherry, spice, and nutmeg notes on the finish.
