Chateau d'Issan 2022

$147.89

The 2022 Château d'Issan is a big hit, especially since it was awarded James Suckling's Wine of the Year for 2025 (98 points). This third-growth Margaux is described as a powerful, elegant, and exceptionally balanced vintage featuring notes of blackcurrant, violets, and cedar.

Cepa 21 Hito

$28.04

A project from the uber-talented Emilio Moro family, who have made wine in Ribera del Duero for more than 120 years. "A smart buy," according to Wine Spectator, which awarded it an impressive 90 points. The review: "This firm red displays well-integrated flavors of black cherry, licorice, cola and mineral, with solid tannins and a savory finish. Shows good balance and density, but remains slightly austere for now. Drink now through 2018."

Glaetzer Wallace Shiraz Grenache

$28.04

Glaetzer Wallace takes on the traditional Barossa Valley blend of Shiraz and Grenache in a modern way. The Shiraz brings backbone, flesh and body to the wine with the Grenache adding a soft, vibrant juiciness.  The nose shows hints of red currant, clove and spice.  On the palate look for fresh juiciness that combines with supple tannin and pronounced flavours of licorice and mulberry. 

Wallace is an ancestral name of Colin's wife, Judith, whose family hail from the old market town of Cupar in Fife, Scotland. Judith's Celtic ancestry is reflected in the three elements of the Wallace symbol - the Celtic cross, thistle and the Celtic knot pattern.

Bideona Viura De Cabezadas

$26.34

Bideona produces terroir-driven, site-specific wines from historic, low-yielding vineyards in Rioja Alavesa. Made from high-quality viura fruit from hilltop vineyards (cabezadas) on limestone soils, with a small amount aged in used oak for texture.Fresh and subtle nose, pure aromas of stone fruit with a touch of white flowers and struck match.

Giant Steps Pinot Noir

$45.04

Giant Steps was founded by wine industry pioneer Phil Sexton, who ventured from Margaret River to Yarra Valley to find the ideal site to cultivate Chardonnay and Pinot Noir of purity and finesse. Phil found his holy grail near Gruyere in the Sexton vineyard, which he planted in 1997 on the steep slopes of the Warramate Ranges. A mad jazz fan, Phil named the winery after John Coltrane’s album and fitting metaphor, “Giant Steps.” In 2003, Winemaker Steve Flamsteed came aboard, and the two set about producing a range of iconic Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays that express a profound sense of place from six finite sites in Yarra Valley.

Alta Mora Guardiola

$70.54

The project: The largest volcano in Europe – a symbol of nature’s ardour and an ancient and tenacious viniculture – is the place that brothers Diego and Alberto Cusumano have chosen together with their father, Francesco, for their new and impassioned challenge: to create wines that express the quality and character of a unique land.

After years of searching, a unique opportunity appeared in 2013 to acquire the first three contrade on the northern slopes of Etna. A continually evolving project that began with the reconstruction of the traditional dry stone walls of the terraces of Guardiola – the contrada (district) whose stunning beauty nurtures the underlying motivation and inspiration and whose name is given to the entire project: Alta Mora. It's a recreation of the traditional dry stone walls of the terraces of Guardiola – the contrada (district) whose stunning beauty nurtures the underlying motivation and inspiration. The sole grape is Nerello Mascalese from two hectares of 150-year free-standing vines at an altitude of 800/1000 meters above sea level in the Guardiola contrada. The altitude and terroir allow the Nerello Mascalese to ripen more slowly, which promotes rich tannins and distinctive aromas in the grape. The wine drinks like fine Burgundy with great structure and elegance. Plush red fruits, spice, fine tannins; briallant wine.
