Reds Selection

Palacio del Conde

Gran Reserva 2007
Country: Spain
Region: Valencia

Top-tier Spanish winemaking

Gran Reserva - the king of Spanish wine! Made only in the best vintages, from the best grapes before spending years mellowing in fine oak before release.

Aged to perfection so you don't have to!

This famous red spends a minimum two years in oak and three in bottle. That helps build elegant, smooth layers flavour and means the wine is ready to drink right away!

You'll love this because...

Such quality wine usually costs loads! Luckily, today's Spanish wine scene offers the best value going around... Shhh don't tell anyone or the prices will skyrocket!

The Black Pig

Shiraz 2013
Country: Australia
Region: McLaren Vale

Rock star treatment

Our first superstar wine... a true 'hall of famer'! Loyal customers love this wine and so do we. The grapes always receive the royal treatment. From vineyard to bottle.

A Mecca for wine making

McLaren Vale's Mediterranean climate is superb for growing wonderful, ripe fruit. Here it has produced a silky, layered Shiraz showing sweet bramble flavours.

Setting a new standard in quality

The Black Pig 2009 set the bar extremely high. We truly thought nothing could compete. Well, the 2013 edition has exceeded expectations, a wine that lives up to its superstar status.

Mr Noir

Pinot Noir 2013
Country: Australia
Region: Fleurieu Peninsula

An iron fist in a velvet glove

On one hand there's unbridled power, the kind that doesn't show restraint. Then there's softness that dampens and rounds producing an incredible mouth feel.

From Burgundy with love

Burgundy's famous red grape produced right here in Australia. In fact, you'd swear this was red Burgundy at its finest – minus the huge price tag.

6th generation winemaking know-how

Expressive Pinot Noir from 6th generation winemaker, Jess Hardy, of the 'Hardy dynasty'. A woman who knows a thing or two about producing high quality plonk.

Bentwing

Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Country: Australia
Region: Coonawarra

A vintage to remember

2014 in Coonawarra was a vintage the critics will be raving about for years to come. The result is a darker, more indulgent and luxurious Cabernet than you're used to!

The Region

The Coonawarra is hands down the finest place for growing Cabernet in the country. The region's red soils give rise to exceptional versions that are powerful and age-worthy.

What's in the bottle?

Deep black and red cherry, bramble, capsicum and pepper flavours. There's an unmistakable herbal hit – that's how you know it's Coonawara through and through.

Ursula (Melbourne)

Craig (Brisbane)

Whites Selection

Hot Seat

Sauvignon Blanc 2014
Country: Australia
Region: Marlborough

Strength to strength

Four vintages on from its first arrival to our office, Hot Seat 2014 takes the best Marlborough fruit and produces a wine of sheer sophistication.

Flavour, flavour, flavour!

Bursting with sensationally rich aromas of tropical fruits, you'll see why Hot Seat has earned so many fans and will continue to do so for years to come.

Nowhere can compete with Marlborough

The best place on earth to get your Sauvignon Blanc – it's as simple as that. And let's face it, if you didn't already know that you have been hiding under a rock.

Sentiero dei Pini

Pinot Grigio 2013
Country: Italy
Region: Venezie IGT

Local expertise

Few Italian winemakers have the experience and local knowledge of Guiseppe Secchi, the maestro behind this exhilarating, mineral and citrus charged white.

Just so we're clear...

Pinot Grigio is what the Italians call Pinot Gris - they are the same thing - but in Italy it is used to produce crisp, easy drinking dry wines with bags of fresh fruit flavour.

What do we think?

Cool climate, fresh and truly thirst quenching... this Pinot Grigio displays pure lemon and grapefruit flavours, white stone fruit and a sophisticated, minerally edge.

Harman's Rd

Chardonnay 2014
Country: Australia
Region: Margaret River

Did you know?

That although Margaret River produces little over 2% of Australia's wine, it accounts for a whopping 20% of its 'fine wine' – it truly is our premier wine region!

Clean lines, well styled...

his Chardonnay was crafted accentuate the characters of Margaret River's cool growing conditions. A crisp wine with balanced acidity and the slightest hint of oak.

Leap from the glass flavours!

Enjoy fragrant tropical fruit of Sauvignon Blanc together with the citrus and richness of Semillon. The result is a delicately balanced wine with great fruit intensity.

The Whistling Duck

Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2014
Country: Australia
Region: King Valley

The best of friends

Sauvignon Blanc has found a friend in Semillon, and they make a truly unstoppable partnership. Sauvignon intensity alongside the richness of the Semillon – stunning!

Cool climate

The grapes for this wine were sourced from the cool climate King Valley on the northern slopes of the Great Dividing Range in Victoria. One of Australia's newest (and most exciting) wine regions.

Say "no" to over oaked Chardonnay

Instead check out a bottle with hints of stone fruits and citrus. Test the waters and drink it alongside a 'rustic' chicken dish... you could even splash some in while cooking.
