Airlie Bank Yarra Valley Franc 2018

'Blackcurrant, ripe raspberry, ash and lots of spice, sweet capsicum. Light bodied, but good intensity of small berried fruits, sappy green and spicy things are punctuation marks here, rather than text, acidity is fresh and slaty, tannin forms a fine dust, and the finish is cool and fresh. Great thing to drink.'

Aller Trop Loin Cabernet Franc 2017

Made from a single vineyard in the Yarra Junction sub-region of the Yarra Valley.

Bright and fragrant as Cabernet Franc often is, but with a delicious amount of dense red berry fruit to give plenty of life.

Balgownie Sparkling Shiraz 2017

Sweet red and black berry fruit, vanilla oak and a seemingly endless choc berry flow. It’s a bolder, riper style of sparkling Shiraz (elegance isn’t the game here), but with pure hedonism, depth of flavour and real tannins. It does feel like a red with bubbles than a true sparkling Shiraz, but gee it’s delicious. Will likely be even better in a year or two when it settles down further, as it’s just a little too overt, too big, too … more

Bird on a Wire Chardonnay 2015

The fruit for the Chardonnay is sourced from a vineyard high up in the Yarra Valley. The vines are 36 years old, which aids in the depth and complexity of the wine. The naturally cool nights and sunny days in the Upper Yarra are perfect for Chardonnay as they help maintain natural acidity whilst the flavours develop in the fruit. As a result no acid adjustment is required in the winery and the line and length of acidity in the … more

Blackwood Hill 'Barrel' Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 15

Aptly named, this wine has been in old oak for two years. With softened tannins, yet retained fruit flavours this wine is for those who love a big red. The last of our barrel-aged table wine before Amphora is released in 2018

Barrel is produced each year with minimal intervention and no filtering, reflecting the seasonal flavours in the grapes. The cool climate of the Yarra Valley and the use of old oak in the winemaking process gives us the … more

Bress Silver Chook Chardonnay 2018

Produced from pristine fruit in the picturesque Yarra Valley, this little delight is very much in the French style of Pinot GRIS rather than the Italian style of Pinot Grigio. Rich, with a medley of citrus and stone fruit flavours and sweet spice.

Pinot Gris is the perfect all-rounder, but especially special with richer style seafood such as trout, eel, mussles and scallops. Also a wonderful accompainment to pate and your next antipasto platter.

Caviste Syrah 2016

"Shiraz was sourced from "Yarraland" Vineyard located in Chirnside Park on the southern boundary of the Yarra Valley. This vineyard manages to produce Shiraz with lovely aromatics and spice. The fruit was received in excellent condition after being handpicked. The low yields pre-empted quality and confirmed the high expectations around the vintage.

Fruit was handpicked & fermented in open fermenters with 10% whole cluster before being pressed into French hogsheads (20% new). The wine spent 8 months on oak with … more

Coldstream Hills Sparkling Pinot Noir Chardonnay 2013

Coldstream Hills has been making sparkling wine, albeit in small quantities, since 1995. The first release of the wine was a Blanc de Noir, but in more recent times, it has been a more traditional blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

The south facing slopes of the Deer Farm Vineyard at Gladysdale provide an ideal source for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. The fruit was hand picked and gently pressed prior to fermentation. Following secondary fermentation, the wine spent three … more
