Benjamin Leroux Savigny-lès-Beaune 2021

Pinot Noir | Savigny-lès-Beaune, Burgundy

The lion’s share of this vintage comes from the outstanding Aux Fourneaux lieu-dit in the north of the village. Leroux works with lots of Pinot Fin here (a high-quality, low-yielding cultivar of Pinot Noir); vines that give low yields and great concentration. Les Conardises also contributed this year, and both parcels were fully destemmed. The wine was matured in 600-litre barrels. “Also quite a pale colour. The bouquet is a little more pronounced in fresh raspberry fruit, pleasin

Bilancia ‘la collina’ Syrah 2020

Shiraz/Syrah | New Zealand, Hawke's Bay

Bilancia's 'La Collina' is New Zealand's Syrah equivalent TeMata's 'Coleraine' Bordeaux blend. The only challenge, they make a minuscule volume. Australia might see 10 dozen for the country! Tasting the 2020 with Warren and Lorraine last year was inspiring. A little lift that blows off. Interesting fresh energy, redder fruit. Even long detailed fine tannins, with a playful edge. The length and depth. Poise balance perfume, underlying savoury edge. Excellent balance. This will be stunning i

Swinney Farvie Syrah 2021

Shiraz/Syrah | West Australia, Australia

Grape first as with all the Swinney wines, there is beauty here. The cooler year offering more energy compared to its 2020 predecessor. Incredibly complex fruit, beautifully framed with fine layered tannins. The harmony, development and elegance for a wine of such youth is impressive making for a delicious drink now. Looking at the 2018 in a mini-vertical of all Favrie releases the evolution over a few years offered up intriguing secondary development. “The 2021 Farvie Syrah is lighte

Swinney Farvie Syrah 2022

Shiraz/Syrah | West Australia, Australia

As with all the Swinney & Farvie wines this is grape first. There's a thing about good reds, they have an acid-tannin complex that works were the total is greater than the sum of the parts. That applies to the 2022 Farvie Syrah. The hallmark playful grip is here. Again wonderfully perfumed with a little dusting of delicate pepper, earthy and savoury with that ferous, blood lip character. Layers of tannin wrap a core of fruit in harmony. Delicious!

Swinney Farvie Mourvèdre 2022

Mourvèrdre | West Australia, Australia

Outstanding perfume, violets and chocolates layered into earthy, almost truffled grape skins and blue fruits with a lick of darker Asian spices. Intoxicating and pure it just draws you in. One of those wines you can just sit and smell for ages. Layered tannins of this quality are a thing of beauty. Their playful grip is at just that right level to enliven and cleanse the palate. A triumph! Mouvèdre is more often seen as a blending component offering a superb perfume of violets and flowers, s

Freshness, delicacy and transparency all the way. Perfumed and floral with fine tannins incorporating a layer of stalk tannin. Tea and fresh blood orange on a core of vibrant blue fruits, with a savoury element, a little quality reduction. An exceptional example of grape first Grenache. A tiny splash of just 4% Mourvèdre in the mix here. Halliday 96 points Jukes 19+ Jordam 98

Leroux owns two parcels of vines in Meursault-Blagny’s highest 1er Cru, La Pièce Sous Le Bois. The first is 0.44 hectares of Chardonnay planted in 1953.

The wine is beautifully filigreed and elegant on the palate. A subtle touch of whipped cream adds some depth and silkiness to the overall focused and zesty experience. The finish is really to die for as it is both creamy and hugely zest, as one
