The Standish Wine Company 'The Relic' Shiraz 2022

"The 2022 The Relic Shiraz-Viognier contains 2% Viognier skins, and this addition presents in this vintage as a core of raspberry and pomegranate. It is pure fruited and powerfully aromatic, as this cuvee always is. Interestingly, I am tasting this wine from two different glasses: one opened two days ago, one opened this morning. They are quite different, telling us once again that oxygen really is a friend to this producer, especially if choosing to drink these wines young.

The Standish Wine Company 'The Standish' Shiraz 2022

"The 2022 The Standish Shiraz is again providing me with the opportunity to assess bottles two days apart, and how different they are. The freshly opened bottle, as we would all experience upon our first opening, is tight and fresh, with cracked fennel seed, black peppercorns, cumin and ras el'hanout, then dried blueberries and licorice, hints of arnica and raspberry.

It's cool and mineral, with a graphite finish. I cannot overstate how much better the wine tastes after two days. … more

The Story Grampians Grenache 2023

From the soaring granitic hills of the Grampians, way up in hills of 800m elevation, comes this gorgeous Grenache. Rory’s style is relatively pared back, minimal fussy winemaking allows pure fruit character to sing. Think pink lady apples, juicy raspberries and a fragrant whiff of pink peppercorn.

The Story R. Lane Vintners Westgate Vineyard Syrah 2019

'This has ‘classic’ written all over it. Classic cool climate Victorian shiraz. It’s bunchy, it’s peppery, it’s bold, it’s long, it’s tannic. There is no shortage of drama and yet everything is well combined and composed; nothing juts, nothing challenges, but at all times it expresses itself clearly and well. Blackberry and black cherry, graphite, black pepper, cloves, strings of salted herbs. It’s a meaty wine with both a flood of fruit and carves of dry tannin. A long haul … more

Thick as Thieves "Plump" Yarra Pinot Noir 2024

"Plenty of blueberry and cherry, spice, ginger biscuit, rosehip, slight soil-like earthiness. It's a fleshy wine, indeed, plump, with a plenty of spice and ginger root, earthy and silty, raspberry and redcurrant, but has this wild edge and joyous character and bounce. Finish is good too, with a lot of smudgy tannin to close. What fun." Gary Walsh - The Wine Front

Thick as Thieves 'Lusatia' Chardonnay 2024

"Fermented and matured in one four-year-old puncheon. No mlf. A very bright green gold. Another super chardonnay from Thick as Thieves in 2024. This beauty has aromas of freshly picked yellow nectarines together with grilled nuts and some light sea spray scents. Even better on the saline, tightly wound and very long palate. Great now and over the next 3-5 years at least. In a word, terrific! Only 60 dozen made." (Philip Rich - Halliday Wine Companion 96pts)

Thick as Thieves Arneis 2024

Complex and varietal. Aromas of honeysuckle, deli meats and malt with hints of green pineapple and ginger. Background sulphides add a further layer of interest.Textured and balanced. A generous core of fruit to start followed by fine tannins that build on the mid and back palate. Flavours of green pineapple and wet slate. A viscous mouthfeel and a dry savoury finish that screams out for food!

Thousand Candles Gathering Field Pinot Noir 2023

It's not hard to see why this wine was a gold medallist at the Yarra Valley Wineshow, savoury and structured, yet pretty and soft. Balance is key, and the Gathering Fields has it in spades. Expect lively tannins and tart pomegranate juice bursts of acidity. Notes on the nose of red cherry, forest berry and a whiff of dusty terracotta earth.
