Clos des Rocs Mâcon-Loché en Près Forêt 2021

Wines from the Mâcon are our favourite comfort drop, the best of them dripping in ripe yellow peach and orchard blossom scents, with a lick of French vanilla spice and lovely lemon citrus acidity. Clos des Rocs gives us all that and then some, their tiny parcel of fruit is loaded with minerality and vibrancy, tempering that richness and making for a beautifully balanced wine.

Domaine Louis Boillot et Fils Moulin-à-Vent Plantiers du Favre 2019

Boillot-Barthod is the new name for Louis Boillot, celebrating Louis & Ghislaine's son - Clément -taking over the winemkaing reins.

"A much earthier and more sauvage nose exhibits notes of mostly red berries with touches of herbal tea, humus and pepper. The energetic and utterly delicious flavors exude a subtle minerality on the powerful, serious, highly complex and built-to-age finale. This is terrific and worth checking out if you can find it." 91-93. Outstanding Top value. Burghound Issue 81.

Famille Paquet Macon-Village "Nos Cinq Terroir" Chardonnay 2023

The Paquet family domaine was created in 1980 with transition in 2016 to the 3 sons who began conversion to organics. Macon makes some of the most approachable, delicious Burgundies that do not require too much patience to enjoy. Expect lively, vibrant flavours of grapefruit, honeysuckle, acacia & white roses work well with salty starters (nuts, olives) but goes equally well poultry & risotto for example - a perfect all-rounder.

Four Pillars Australian Christmas Gin (2023 Edition) 700ml 43.8%

To make this gin Cam first distills some Christmas puddings (made to his mother Wilma's 1968 recipe) with juniper, cinnamon, star anise, coriander and angelica over the top.

Cam also ages gin in a couple of 125-year-old ex-William Grant scotch whisky barrels that had previously stored Rutherglen Muscat for 80 years. He then blends this with the Christmas Pudding gin, and to finish he adds a slight tweak of Rutherglen Classic Muscat to round out the palate. This year Cam … more

Jim Barry Spring Farm Block 114 Riesling 2013

The Spring Farm block showed immediate promise for Riesling, with its windswept hills at high altitudes and tiny micro-climate pockets with bountiful sunshine to warm the cool slopes. Released after 10 years in the cellar, it's drinking beautifully now showing all the best characters of aged Aussie Riesling - candied lime peel, waxy lily petal florals, fresh sourdough & butter.

Kilikanoon Killerman's Run Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Classically Cabernet-esque aromas of blackcurrant and cassis leap out of the glass here, leaving behind wafts of tobacco leaf and wood smoke. Richly flavoured and with fine texture, these scents carry confidently on to the palate with generous but ripe tannins and smoky oak influence.

Little Frances Lake County Semillon 2017

Producer Notes - "Lake County rises high above the north end of the Napa Valley, over the Mayacamas Mountain range. Classic Bordeaux varieties dominate vineyard plantings in this agricultural basin. Warm summer days are moderated by the cooling mass of Clear Lake - California's largest natural lake. Since 2012, Little Frances has sourced Semillon from a single vineyard owned and tended by three generations of the Luchsinger family.

An absolutely superb growing season for Northern California. This wine showed promise … more
