Bird on a Wire Chardonnay 2018

The fruit for the Chardonnay is sourced from a vineyard high up in the Yarra Valley. The vines are 36 years old, which aids in the depth and complexity of the wine. The naturally cool nights and sunny days in the Upper Yarra are perfect for Chardonnay as they help maintain natural acidity whilst the flavours develop in the fruit. As a result no acid adjustment is required in the winery and the line and length of acidity in the … more

DML Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2021

"Strawberry, a little spice, almond, kind of pretty, with a flicker of mint and light cedar oak. It's light to medium-bodied, delicate and lacy, a subtle hazelnut flavour, fine grained emery board tannin, very fresh, again the spiced strawberry and a minty blood orange, but pure finish of excellent length. Lovely wine with a 'mineral' character, and a certain cool charm." 95 points Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

Gembrook Hill Estate Pinot Noir 2022

Producer Notes - "2022 was another cool year, highlighting elegance and suppleness. Poor weather during flowering drastically reduced the production volume of this wine which is down 60% from usual quantities. Therefore there is very little wine available... Classic Gembrook perfume is accentuated by decanting while this wine is young. As has been the case in recent years, careful fruit sorting in the vineyard by the winemaking team at picking was essential to deliver pristine fruit.

Giant Steps Tarraford Vineyard Chardonnay 2021

"The 2021 Tarraford Vineyard Chardonnay comes from the Tarraford Vineyard—it is the most northerly vineyard in the collection and is planted to the P58 clone, planted in the 1980s. The fruit was originally intended as sparkling base and was being sold to Chandon. The fruit now goes solely toward table wine Chardonnay, and in this case, we are able to see for potential in the glass than merely sparkling base. This is a south-facing vineyard in a warmer area in … more

Hoddles Creek Pinot Noir 2022

Wine writer Campbell Mattinson put it best when he described the Hoddle's Creek Pinot as 'fragrant and lively, blessed with bell-clear varietal fruit flavour, blossomy, tannic and sure. Woodsmoke and oranges, red cherry and woodsy spice.' All that for just $25? Hot damn.

HOUSE Yarra Glen Pinot Noir 2021

What a wonderful find this is. A gorgeous, richly flavoured Pinot from a tiny producer in the Yarra Glen subregio nof the Yarra Valley. And under $20. Deep, dark cherry/plum, and wispy hints of oak lead the way to a rounder full palate, layered with dark berry, chocolate and spices. This really is terrific drinking now, and over the next 3-6 years too.

Jane Eyre Yarra Valley Pinot Noir 2022

2021 began as a challenging vintage in the Yarra Valley due to summer and autumn rains and cooler than average temperatures during the growing season. This was followed by a long slow ripening period which is ideal for producing Pinot Noir of excellent quality.

The dry grown fruit comes from Syme, Yarra. Vineyard is east facing at 115m altitude on heavy clay sub soil with a silty clay loam top. Grapes are hand picked and 80% de-stemmed. 20 days on … more
