Note: Vigna del Sorbo became a Gran Selezione wine starting with the 2010 vintage, although the first vintage ever made was 1985.

"The 2016 Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Vigna del Sorbo is another benchmark wine from Tuscany that shows the incredible potential of this iconic vintage.

Foreign Friends Pinot Blanc 2024

This Pinot Blanc hails from King Valley, and is made in a classically Alsatian style - Pinot Blanc’s home. The variety came about as a naturally occuring genetic mutation of Pinot Gris, giving it a reputation as the ‘ugly duckling’ in a vineyard. However, in the right hands, Pinot Blanc shows sumptuous texture and scents of golden apple, honey and almond.

Foxeys Hangout Pinot Gris 2024

Grown biodynamically on the Mornington peninsula, the Foxey's Hangout Gris is as pretty as it comes. Scents of ripe pear and rose petals intermingle with sourdough toast and slate. The palate is fresh but flavoursome, with a wash of natural sweetness tempered by refreshing acidity.

François Cotat Sancerre 'Caillottes' 2023

Importers Notes - "This has superb dimension, unlike any other Sancerre - bright lemon, fresh ginger and white pepper perfumes are lifted and hover over a rocky minerality; the mouth is equally defined yet is made rich with a sensation of silky, full-bodied white fruits. The mouthfeel is chiseled and pure with layers of concentrated flavour. This used to be called "Jeunes Vignes" but François has been vinifing "Caillottes" separately since 2005; the vineyard name refers to a type of … more

François Cotat Sancerre Cuvée Paul 2017

Importers Notes - "From a plot just over 1 hectare in size in Les Monts Damnés, the imposing sweep of vineyards that look down driectly upon Chavignol. This has a deeper tone and pitch than the 'Caillotes' and perhaps a touch more concentration. François's Monts Damnés is clearly the best example of this famous Cru. Reflecting the excellent vintage, this wine is cool and compact, a taut, tightly coiled core of briny minerality; such tension, and exquisite balance. Superb and … more

François Cotat Sancerre La Grande Côte 2023

Importers Notes - "This vineyard is where François has his oldest vines, these days the average age is about 40 years because he has had to replant many of the very old vines as the Sauvignon is susceptible to viruses as it ages and so past 60 years old the vine is usually close to unproductive. This vineyard produces the most flamboyant wines in this collection, there are subtle notes of orchard fruit and more power but don't let that … more

François Cotat Sancerre Rosé 2023

Importers Notes - "Cotat's rosé is cult and one of a very small group that benefit from (and in some ways demand) aging. Just like Cotat's whites, with age, it's the terroir that comes to dominate the rosé with a singular minerality. There may be a silky texture and gentle floral notes, but it's the stony minerality that defines old Cotat rosé. Sadly, they're as rare as they are beautiful."

François Millet et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin Le Fourneau 2018

As you drive from Morey in the south there is a small valley at the start of the Gevry appellation where the Combe is, then you rise up on to the plateau. Le Fourneau sits on the right hand side of the road on this plateau. East facing. Same latitude as Clos de Beze. Apparently in the past there was a furnace in the area, people bringing iron to the site to melt hence the name. Le Fourneau means Furnace, … more

François Millet et Fils Volnay 1er Cru Les Angles 2018

A new wine from Francois following the inaugural 2017 vintage. 2019 and 2020 are already in barrel to follow this first release. The 'triangle', Francois loves the elegance offered by this 1er Cru. He highlights that 2018 has given a completeness to the terroir without aggressive tannins. East exposition, lots of Limestone near the surface. 'Spicy', 'Oriental', 'Density' just some of the descriptors Francois uses with this vintage. Bottled in May 2020.

Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Mourvedre 2021

Vibrant, translucent ruby in colour. The nose has notes of rose petals, musk and lavender with cranberry, redcurrant, morello cherry, pastrami, sweet spices and terracotta. Though complex, the nose presents as pretty and compact with underlying stoniness, which precisely mimics the first impression in the mouth. There's small red-berry brightness to the medium-bodied palate, and gradually those charcuterie and dry-earth notes emerge with iodine and graphite. Musky, petally perfumes waft over terracotta on a pin-point finish with powdery tannins. An … more

Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Riesling 2023

Halliday Wine Companion Top 100 Wines of 2024

"One of the great Rieslings of Australia. This is textural as much as pure, with lime blossom, ginger flower and a touch of beeswax. Flavours of Bickford's lime cordial, lemon curd, mandarin and zest caress the palate; the talcy-fine acidity is lipsmacking. 96 points - Jane Faulkner, Halliday Wine Companion
