Pure delight from the prestigious Blue Pyrenees estate. Delicious aromas of white peach, nectarine and citrus on the nose; lovely stone fruit and creamy French oak on the palate. The finish is mouthwateringly crisp and lively. This premium vineyard in Victoria’s cool Pyrenees district was originally established to provide high quality grapes for Penfolds and Seppelts. These days its remarkable fruit is bottled under its own label, to stunning critical acclaim. It's made by Andrew Koerner (of Blue Pyrenees fame) and his talented band of winemakers and viticulturists. It's superb.

Attractive stone fruit and citrus aromas with complexity from maturation on fermentation lees. The palate is fine and long with persistent flavour supported by oak structure and length. Will drink well over the next 5 years.

We have offered this exemplary wine for over two decades and the multitude of awards over the years – and the 5-Star reviews – speak volumes. It is our bestselling sparkler by a mile. Roche Lacour winemaker Viviane Gianesini works her magic beneath the cool hills of Limoux. Here, the monks of Saint Hilaire are said to have mastered sparkling wine methods in 1531, centuries ahead of Dom Pérignon. Bottles back then were fragile and didn’t travel, so their success remained a secret. The cuvée is rich in Chardonnay and Pinot Noir – like Champagne – and nearly half the wine is oak fermented – just like Krug! It’s an expensive technique (so rarely practised) yet important for depth and complexity. Enjoy on its own or with deserving canapés.

It didn't take much encouragement from Yarra Valley winemaker Dr John Middleton to convince TarraWarra Estate's Marc and Eva Besen to plant their first 6 hectares of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in 1983. Their love of Burgundian wines also played a part. Today, the property features 28 hectares of vines, an extensive nature reserve, cattle grazing, a kitchen garden and a beautiful cellar door and restaurant. The Chardonnay was selected from seven separate blocks across the property. Great intensity with stone fruits, a touch of citrus and underlying cashew nut flavours. Creamy texture and subtle use of oak leading to a fresh, lingering finish. “Handpicked, whole bunch-pressed, 50% fermented in tank, 50% in oak of various sizes, forests and toasts, no mlf. Good mouthfeel: balance of stone fruits, apple and grapefruit, oak subtly balanced...95pts” (Halliday Wine Companion, James Halliday).
