White Blend from Macedon, Victoria

Place of Changing Winds ‘Harcourt’ Marsanne Roussanne 2023

Rob & Remy talk about chasing phenolics and golden ripeness, tasting the skins. It shows in the personality of the wine, savoury textural even oily. Pear & ginger fruits with a perfume dancing over the top. That cleansing silvery line of bitterness that plays well. Fruits come with time in the glass. A little more freshness and energy than previous iterations that include Heathcote fruit.“This is such a wonderful wine its success is in its concentration of flavour and texture (

Vanguardist Mourvèdre 2021
🧠+❤️= 💯

Mourvèrdre from McLaren Vale, South Australia

Vanguardist Mourvèdre 2021

"Plenty of spice, white pepper, blue flowers, red and blue fruits, a subtle honey nut and grilled meat character. It’s bright, all boysenberry and blueberry, only medium-bodied, crisp and lively, a slatey/mineral character to acidity, fine dusty concrete tannin, sappy dried herb stuff, pulling crunchy and red fruited on a long finish. Wonderful level of energy and vibrant feel here. It showed no sign of tiring after being open for two days either. Drink: 2024 - 2032+"Gary Walsh TWF 95 Poi

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy

Domaine Roland Lavantureux Petit Chablis 2020

“Here is the only wine that with 100% stainless-steel for all vinification and elevage. All from Lignorelles. That’s a very friendly nose – slightly round and faintly caramel despite tank elevage – an inviting sweetness. A little touch of green in the flavours but also lots of energy and citrus bitters. Very engaging, tasty wine. Long too.”Bill Nanson

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy

Domaine Roland Lavantureux Chablis 2020

“All the domaine’s wines are vinified parcel by parcel – this comes from a single parcel in Lignorelles but a big parcel of 5ha and it’s the biggest cuvée of the domaine. Here starting to see a proportion of older barrels for elevage. A similar roundness and sweet invitation to drink. Mouth- filling, silky – here is a super wine for drinking today! The finish is pure and full of energy – again with lovely citrus-skin complexity. That’s really excellent.”Bill Nanson

Chenin Blanc from Brézé, Saumur

Domaine Arnaud Lambert Samur Brézé ‘Clos de Midi’ 2023

Looking good! Fresh, style with a nice phenolic grip and cleansing astringency with crunchy mineral acid. Spiced pear and quince with citrus rind and fresh marmalade are balanced by silvery almond lining. Building generosity in the glass.Give this a year in bottle to settle a little and drink over 5 years.

Nebbiolo from Commune di Barolo, Barolo

Praeter Langhe Nebbiolo 2023

Barolo Cru Druca Fruit from the Vineyards of Luigi Oddero! Sourced from the Druca Cru in Barolo. Declassified Barolo! Not for quality, but, for the shorter ageing timeframe. BOOM! The rest of the fruit from this Cru goes into the Langhe Nebbiolo. The shift in Cru back in 2020 was based on a desire to find fruit with softer tannin to handle 100% whole-bunch, an uncommon technique in Piedmont, though one on the rise. The Cru is near Novello's Ravera Cru. The site allows more hang time & t

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy

Domaine Thierry Laffay Chablis Vielles Vignes 2020

Showing exactly how important vine age is! A step up, an extra zip of salty acid and that mid palate weight with excellent length. Florals, white stone fruit a little citrus pith and plenty of fun. That slight primary edge that disappeared as it opened revealing excellent depth and length with restraint. A little more complexity. Mid palate texture is excellent. Hazelnuts and an extra layer of pleasure here. Excellent.

“Very ripe quince nose, with fresh fruit and a hint of caramelised fruit. Excellent balance of ripeness and vitality, although the acidity is barely present in the foreground, only showing its hand at the long, wet-stone finish.”Stuart Pigott, Jamessuckling.com 92 Points

Terre Nere Etna Rosso 2024

A Ripper from Marco! For the 2023 Vintage: Terre Nere's ascension continues. The 2023 Etna Rosso is a delight. Harmonious, flowing, superb élévage. Earth, spice and all things nice layer around a core of dark, savoury fruit of excellent mid-palate weight. There's plenty of energy here. Perhaps one of the most complete Terre Nere Etna Rosso's to date. Making a wine of this calibre in such a difficult year is a demonstration that they have mastered the mountain.A great introduction to the wi

Chardonnay from Chablis, Burgundy

Domaine William Fèvre Chablis 2023

Sourced from a mosaic of exposures and elevations and incorporating old vines planted between 1969 and 1972, the 2023 Chablis Village offers aromas of pear, white flowers and freshly baked bread. Medium- to full-bodied, ample and charming, it is underpinned by ripe yet racy acidity and concludes with a long, saline finish. Harvested earlier to preserve freshness, this is a well-executed village-level Chablis. Drink: 2026 – 2038Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate 90 Points
