On the palate, the Georges Duboeuf Le Clos Reyssier 1er Cru Pouilly-Fuissé 2020 is full-bodied and rich, with flavors of tropical fruit, baked apple, and a touch of toast. The wine's vibrant acidity is perfectly balanced by its creamy texture, leading to a long, satisfying finish. This wine is an excellent pairing for grilled seafood, roasted chicken, and creamy pasta dishes.
Juicy on the palate, with cherry and goji berries amongst fresh herbs, sarsaparilla-root, rosemary and rhubarb.
The tannin is fine and the finish lip-smacking.
Super slurpy light-bodied wine with zingy acid lines and beautiful fine tannins.
From one of the great vineyards of Australia - fresh and long on the palate fine red fruit structure and undergrowth notes.
Known as one of Australia's best Chardonnay - if not the best! Very limited.
Another high-end release of Giaconda chardonnay.
From one of the great vineyards of Australia - round & rich with a satisfying fruit-laden palate of wild berries and fine tannins.

"Dark cherry, plum, spicy biscuit and dried rose perfume..." - Mike Bennie, Wine Front
"A 50/50% mix of upper and lower Yarra fruit. Fermented with mainly whole berries and matured in French oak (10% new). A bright ruby crimson. Expressive with aromas of satsuma plums, strawberry coulis, fennel seeds and a hint of star anise. With its core of ripe yet well-delineated fruit and firm-ish, balanced tannins, this is more concentrated and muscular than the 2021. It will age well, too, for those that find themselves with a bottle seven to 10 years from now." - Philip Rich

"56/44% pinot/syrah. Fermented separately with some whole bunches (for the syrah) and a short élevage in seasoned puncheons and barriques. A very bright crimson purple. Springs from the glass with violets, cherries, raspberries and a touch of Sichuan pepper. A juicy yet focused and delicious mouthful with satiny tannins. The bargain red wine in the portfolio." - Philip Rich
