For 50 years Julien Bouchard dedicated himself to making some of the finest wines in Burgundy. In 1955, without anyone to leave his winery and vineyards to, he chose Albert Bichot to continue his legacy. A wise choice – Bichot has been rated Burgundy’s best producer of both the region's red and white wines and a number of their releases have become great favourites with our customers. This is their classic Petit Chablis– Chardonnay grown on brown limestone soil, rather than the Chablis’s kimmeridgian clay, lending intense citrusy fruit and a bright minerality, with lees ageing for extra roundness. Crisp and well balanced, it’s best served cellar cool, with white meat dishes – creamy chicken pie or pork casserole – or panfried salmon.

Sam Trimboli brings you yet another refreshing treat inspired by his Italian heritage. His Saverio label celebrates a range of European grape varieties, some rarely seen in Australia and New Zealand. Pecorino grown in Central Italy in the Marches region and down through Abruzzo, yields stone fruit, just a hint of tropical notes, savoury, herby and nutty nuances, and a clean refreshing acidity.

A deliciously fresh pure Pinot Noir from organic vineyards in Tasmania. The mission of 'Swell Season, an enterprise based in Margaret River, is to produce elegantly expressive wines from organically grown fruit.

Made exclusively from grapes grown on a north-east facing slope in Mudgee, Peter Logan’s textbook Tempranillo made with ‘love and valour’ displays classic spiced cherry, bright red fruits and vanilla notes. Match with duck dishes or d'Affinois cheese.

Gold medal-winning Limestone Coast rosé with a very appropriate name! A deliciously dry Rosé with crisp acidity and notes of strawberries and cream. With less than 0.1% of sugar per bottle, this Rose is light-bodied, vegan friendly, and incredibly refreshing. A deliberate move away fom old-fashioned cloying, sweeter pinks of the past – "Now we have fresh, energetic and dry wines, just like this. 100% Shiraz, this Rosé saw twenty-one days ferment. The colour here is a very gentle faded orange. The nose has a range of aromas, including herbs, florals, citrus, red fruits and a hint of salami. Rather juicy acidity helps keep everything rivetingly fresh." (Ken Gargett, WinePilot)

Just when we thought 2019's multi-Gold The Artisan Coonawarra Cabernet was going above and beyond, the 2020 one-ups it with EIGHT Gold medals! It's from Allegiance Wines, an estate founded by Tim Cox whose love of wine and allegiance to the grape has seen him create a range of outstanding (and critically acclaimed) wines from premium regions around the country. Generous nose of blackcurrant, green capsicum, Kaffir lime and Thai curry spices. The powerful flavours direct you straight to Coonawarra: blackcurrant and cassis, with hints of menthol and cedar. Grippy tannins. Will age for at least 10 years. Scored 95pts from Wine Orbit and 96pts at the International Wine & Spirit Competition (along with a Great Gold). More Gold medals at the Melbourne International Wine Show and six other international wine competitions.

For 50 years Julien Bouchard dedicated himself to making some of the finest wines in Burgundy. In 1955, without anyone to leave his winery and vineyards to, he chose Albert Bichot to take it on and continue his legacy. A wise choice – Bichot has been rated Burgundy’s best producer of both the region's red and white wines and a number of their releases have become great favourites with our customers. This new release is crafted from grapes from the sunny Mâcon in southern Burgundy, lending lightly honeyed fruit and a bright minerality, with lees ageing for an extra layer of complexity. Rounded and well balanced, it’s one to serve in wide bowled glasses with white meat dishes – creamy chicken pie or pork casserole – or panfried salmon.

Delightful – and food friendly, 93pt blend of Grenache and Carignan from the Leask Brothers, whose Hither & Yon winery specialises in interesting varieties and blends. "Off grenache (60%) vines planted in 2009 and carignan (40%) in 2014 from the Sand Road vineyard. This, the first release, is very much in a bistro weight. The buoyant red-berried grenache is lively and juicy, with carignan adding scrubby herb and spice notes, the enthusiasm of the former balanced but not quelled by the latter. It’s an appealing wine, with a zippiness to the finish that will see it work nicely with so many foods, from lighter vegetable plates to fattier meat dishes. 92pts." (Marcus Ellis, The Halliday Wine Companion). John Lehmann, writing in The Australian agrees: "Fruity is as fruity does: from the sweet, intense nose of raspberry, blackberry and vanilla to the plush, generous palate. With flavours too of coffee and mocha with some earthy notes and herbs, it’s a happy marriage of grenache’s ripeness with the meatier tones of the carignan which make this so very food-friendly. "
