At Mount Mary they aim to make a Chardonnay of great length that is able to reach a balance between complexity & finesse. Unashamedly Burgundian in concept, local Yarra Valley practices are employed to fully express the unique terroir, including the wine not going through Malolactic fermentation as Mount Mary's cool-climate leaves the fruit with ideal acidity when picked. Matured in 20% new French barriques with the remainder in older barrels and large casks and along with grape solids, this is a Chardonnay of impressive texture and complexity.

The Domaine Moreau-Naudet Chablis 1er Cru 'Beauregard' showcases a unique, elevated slice of Chablis, shaped by the cooler, higher-altitude slopes of Les Beauregards on Chablis' Left Bank. Virginie Moreau now leads the charge in this premier cru site, drawing on vines replanted in 2001 with rare massal selections, now hitting their prime at 20 years old. The result is a deeply mineral and intensely flavoured wine, balancing orchard fruits and floral notes with a wet-stone minerality. Crafted with traditional, organic methods—hand-harvested, whole berry pressed, naturally fermented, and aged slowly in large oak—this Chablis is textured, refreshing, and faithful to the classic shape and style of the finest Chablis.

Made in tiny quantities from ridiculously low yields of Petit Manseng, this offers all the purity and precision of Dagueneau’s greatest wines. Dider Dagueneau loved the wines of J. J. Prüm, and you can think of this as a Prüm-styled Jurançon (such is the purity and electric intensity!). The pricing reflects the costs of making the wine (via berry-by-berry selection, even though no botrytis is involved). To arrive at this price per bottle, the claim is that the project's costs are simply totalled and then divided by the number of bottles made. Sounds logical enough! The low yields and warmth of the site mean Les Jardins de Babylone can be picked in late October, a whole month before the grapes for conventional Jurançon Moelleux are typically picked. Even so, the wine usually ends up with approximately 130 g/L residual sugar, perfectly balanced by tangy, mouthwatering acidity to give a wine with fabulous verve and drive. As alluded to above, this wine is Germanic in style, so it isn’t only a dessert wine, but can also be drunk throughout the meal (the way you might consume a German Auslese) or with cheese. Of course, it can work brilliantly with carefully matched desserts (ideally citrus- or apple-based).

The Moillard Grivot Corton Charlemagne 2021 is a stunning representation of the famed Burgundy region in France. Its pale gold hue catches the light, teasing the senses with its brilliance. On the nose, aromas of ripe yellow apple, pear, and lemon zest dance alongside hints of white flowers and toasted almonds. The palate is lush and full-bodied, with a perfect balance of fruit and oak. Flavors of juicy peach, apricot, and vanilla mingle with a subtle minerality, leading to a long and elegant finish. This vintage, produced by the renowned Moillard-Grivot winery, showcases the true potential of the Corton Charlemagne appellation. Enjoy now or cellar for years to come to experience the full complexity and depth of this exceptional wine.
