Join us this Saturday as we taste through the wines of Maison Lapalus, one of the most moving stories to come out of Australian wine this year.

Maison Lapalus is Gilles Lapalus’ project at Harcourt in Central Victoria, fine wines hand picked from parcels across the state and made with as little
intervention as possible.

On the 9th of January, fire swept through Harcourt and destroyed everything in the Lapalus coolstore. Gilles lost the
lot.

What came back the other way is the part worth dwelling on. Friends and growers across the country donated finished wine so Gilles would have something to
bottle and sell. From around twenty samples he built four cuvées, Les Vin des Amis, the wine of his friends, drawn from Bindi, Castagna, Ngeringa, Tellurian,
Fighting Gully Road and Whistling Eagle among many others, with Hanging Rock and Little Reddie opening up their wineries so the wines could actually be
made.

We’ll also pour three of Gilles’ own bottles that came out of the cellar before the fire. Once the last cases sell through they can’t be replaced.

These are the wines we’ll be pouring on the day:

Maison Lapalus Roussanne 2020
Maison Lapalus ‘Apianum’ Fiano 2022
Les Vin des Amis Renaissance White MV
Les Vin des Amis Renaissance Rosé MV
Les Vin des Amis Renaissance Light Red MV
Les Vin des Amis Renaissance Red 2025
Bertrand Bespoke Grenache 2023

Come down and raise a glass to Gilles and the community of growers who got behind him. See you there!

Join us this Saturday as we taste through a fantastic seven-wine flight that takes in the breadth of Piedmont, from the Cortese of Gavi in the west all the way through to Barbaresco.

Piedmont sits in the foothills of the Alps in Italy’s northwest corner and is one of the great red wine regions on earth, home to Nebbiolo and the legendary towns of Barolo and Barbaresco where the cru system has been steadily built up over generations, with individual vineyards now carrying a status that increasingly mirrors the Grand Crus of Burgundy. The character of these wines shifts noticeably from one vineyard to the next even though the grape and the vinification are often near-identical, which is exactly the point and a big part of why Nebbiolo continues to draw obsessives in the way it does.

But Piedmont is far broader than its red wine reputation suggests. Cortese in Gavi produces some of Italy’s most pristine, mineral-driven whites and Timorasso, an indigenous white that nearly went extinct in the post-war years and has been brought back by a small group of growers in the Colli Tortonesi, is now producing some of the most exciting and age-worthy whites coming out of the country. Add in the indigenous Langhe varieties living slightly in Nebbiolo’s shadow (Dolcetto, Freisa, Barbera, all worth every bit of attention), the Langhe-level declassified Nebbiolos that punch well above their price point, and the Nebbiolo rosatos coming out of the region, and you start to get a sense of how much ground there is to cover here. For a full breakdown of the sub-regions and varieties, have a look at our guidebook to Piedmont.

The seven wines we’ll be pouring walk the whole region west to east and light to heavy:

Nicola Bergaglio ‘Minaia’ Gavi 2024

La Colombera Derthona Timorasso 2024

Brezza Langhe Rosato 2023

Domenico Clerico ‘Visadi’ Langhe Dolcetto 2024

Brezza Langhe Freisa 2023

Luigi Oddero Langhe Nebbiolo 2022

Ca’ del Baio ‘Autinbej’ Barbaresco 2022

This is a rare chance to taste a properly representative cross-section of one of the world’s great wine regions in a single sitting. See you there!

This Saturday we’re pouring the cool-climate wines of Dr Edge, the project of Tasmanian winemaker Peter Dredge.

Peter got into wine by accident. At 17 a stray discus caught him in the side of the head, leaving him deaf in one ear and ending a promising sporting career. A gap-year harvest at Petaluma under Brian Croser
set him on a new path, and after years there making whites and sparkling, plus a long stint at Bay of Fires and House of Arras, he decided Tasmania was where the wines he wanted to make really belonged.

He launched Dr Edge in Hobart in 2015. The range is a compass of single-vineyard wines from the north, east and south of Tassie plus blends from across the state, much of the fruit off the historic Meadowbank
vineyard.

The winemaking is soft-handed and low-intervention: native yeasts, minimal sulphur, oak dialled right back. Expect traditional-method sparkling, taut Rieslings, textural rosés and Pinots built on freshness and
clarity.

These are the wines that we’ll be pouring on the day:

Dr Edge Blanc de Noir Vintage 2020

Dr Edge Sparkling Brut Nature NV

Dr Edge Riesling 2025

Dr Edge Ambrosia 2025

Dr Edge Rosa Rosa Rosa Rosé 2025

Dr Edge ‘Pinot Rain’ Pinot Noir 2025

See you there!

Join us on tomorrow evening as we will have the pleasure of hosting Jono Koerner showcasing the new releases from Gullyview Estate. These are some seriously well-made and well-priced wines coming out of Clare Valley that are true to their respective variety and site. We’ve been huge fans of these wines since Jono’s first release and were thoroughly impressed when tasting the 2025’s so I am looking forward to sharing them with customers on the 13th.
Jono will be pouring the following wines on the day:
25 Lot Two Three Riesling
25 Albert’s Vermentino
25 Sipside Light Red
25 The Fruitful Grenache
25 Countryside Cabernet Sauvignon
Pop into the store after work to taste some great wines and have a chat with Jono who is a friendly and humble guy. See you all there!

Join us tomorrow afternoon as we taste through the wines of Giorgio Nicolini - a tiny family producer working a 2 hectare patch on the very edge of Italy, where the hills above the old Venetian colony of Muggia tip down to the Gulf of Trieste with the Slovenian and Croatian borders only steps away.

Giorgio and Rossana farm in the old way, hewing close to traditions inherited from grandparents and devoting much of their effort to replanting old native varieties from the original 100-year clones in their own vineyard - Malvasia Istriana (the queen of the Istrian coast, brought across from Greece by Venetian merchants centuries ago) and Vitovska on the whites, Piccola Nera and Borgogna Nera on the reds. The vines are 20-30 years old on clay with marine sediments, and they catch the singular light created by the meeting of Alpine and Mediterranean air.

Treatments in the vineyard are kept to a minimum and no systemics are used. The same hands-off approach holds in the tiny cellar, the fruit is harvested in small baskets, fermented with native yeasts, basket pressed and bottled unfiltered with only the smallest sulphur additions. These are wines that taste unmistakably of where they come from.

These are the wines that we’ll be pouring on the day:

Nicolini Vitovska 2023

Nicolini ‘Ambrosia’ Malvasia Istriana 2023

Nicolini ‘Acciaio’ Malvasia Istriana 2023

Nicolini Piccola Nera 2023

MEET THE MAKER: Jean Bouteille

Tomorrow 5:30 - 7:30 6th of May

Jean Bouteille Wines is a project established by French original, Jean-Baptiste Courdesses in 2019 after accumulating years of experience around the globe working in various fermentations, farming & hospitality fields. This is a small scale winery based in Basket Range, Adelaide Hills that makes wines by hand from organically farmed grapes using regenerative practices in both the winery and vineyard. Any grapes that Jean purchases are also purchased from like minded viticulturalists to craft wines from only the highest quality grapes. Jean’s wines reflect their respective landscapes and varietal characteristics with winemaking decisions made based on intuitive reaction and natural instinct.

JB will be here as part of his “Grand Tour” to debut his new releases from the 25’ vintage and will be showing the following wines:

Traverses 2025 Chardonnay

Maar Red Blend 2025

Machina 2025 Tempranillo

Brisures 2025 Gamay

Join us this Saturday as we taste through the new releases from Basket Range Wine - one of the most exciting young producers coming out of the Adelaide Hills.

We’ve tasted Sholto Broderick’s wines multiple times over the last couple of years and they’re getting more impressive with every passing vintage. These are wines that are starting to sit alongside Gentle Folk at the top of the tree of modern Adelaide Hills producers carving out their own spot, and Sholto is one of the winemakers we think will help propel the region further onto the global stage. He deserves a lot more attention than he currently gets, and as he evolves as a winemaker we all get to taste the benefits.

Sholto’s winemaking story starts in 2015, when he began his viticulture and oenology degree at Adelaide University, and by 2016 he was making his first wines off the family site - a Pinot Noir, a Cab-Merlot blend, and a field blend of Pinot, Petit Verdot, Merlot and a touch of Saperavi. The same year, he travelled to Southern France to work a vintage with natural wine producer Mylène Bru near Corbières - a formative experience whose combination of meticulous attention to detail and low-intervention winemaking still shapes his approach today. Everything is farmed organically, and beyond small sulphur additions on some cuvées there are no additions in the cellar.

Sholto’s father Phil planted the family’s first vines in the Basket Range back in the 1970s, started the Basket Range Wines label in 1988 and later replanted a neighbouring orchard site with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and (across most of the 12.5 hectares) Pinot Noir - the fruit source Sholto is now working off.

Sholto has been showing us his new releases as they come out over the last couple of years, a humble character who lets the wines do the talking. These are the wines that we’ll be pouring on the day:

Basket Range ‘Hills’ Chardonnay 2025

Basket Range ‘Estate’ Chardonnay 2024

Basket Range Rosé 2025

Basket Range ‘Banksia’ Pinot Noir 2025

Basket Range ‘Estate’ Pinot Noir 2024

Basket Range ‘Bantam’ Red Blend 2024

Basket Range ‘Estate’ Cabernet Blend 2023

See you there!

Jean-Marie Guffens barely needs an introduction - founder and winemaker behind the incredible Guffens-Heynen wines in Mâcon. Two of his side projects are quietly some of the best-value French Chardonnay we see all year.

Maison Verget is his micro-négoce label, sourcing from serious low-yielding growers across Mâcon, Chablis and the south. Where the Guffens-Heynen mainline runs lees-stirring and reduction, the Verget wines are deliberately taut - concentrated citrus and stone fruit, minerality, none of the studio tricks. Since Julian Desplans (ex-DRC) took over as head winemaker they’ve only sharpened up further.

Château des Tourettes is his southernmost venture - a Burgundian inspired cellar at 420m on the Luberon foothills pulling Provençal fruit with more stuffing and power but the same tension Guffens insists on everywhere he works.

We’ve picked up a small range. The ‘24 ‘Macon-Pierreclos’ is a ridiculously fresh 50 year-old-vine Chardonnay - a Guffens mainline site at a fraction of the mainline price. The ‘24 ‘Pouilly-Fuisse Le Haut de la Roche’ is honorary Premier Cru in everything but altitude, 25% new oak, seriously tense and focused. From Tourettes, the ‘24 ‘Tinus Grand Blanc Plateau de L’Aigle’ is limestone-grown Provençal Chardonnay for Meursault lovers, and the ‘24 ‘Tinus Rouge d’une Nuit’ is a peppery Syrah-Cab bistro red with one night on old-vine Grenache skins for colour and spice.

One of France’s best winemakers at a fraction of his flagship price. Don’t sleep on these!

When Laurent Tribut married Marie-Clotilde Dauvissat he joined one of Chablis’ most famous winemaking families. René Dauvissat, Marie-Clothilde’s father, gave the couple parcels of excellently situated Chablis AC & Premier Cru sites to establish Domaine Tribut. The small Domaine now has 7 hectares of vineyards predominantly situated on Kimmeridgian soils adjacent to the best Dauvissat vineyards.

The Tribut Chablis share many stylistic similarities with their famous relatives i.e. concentrated citrus and stone fruits, spice and an ever-present minerality with great texture, but perhaps with a little extra generosity. In a lot of ways they share more in common with the classic white Burgundy appellations of the Côte de Beaune than Chablis. We've received Tribut wines from the excellent 2023 vintage. The '23 'Chablis' has fruit from parcels at Courgis and Poinchy and a bit from the Beauroy and Forêts premiers crus. Fermentation in tank is followed by six months in cask before bottling. This easily outperforms the average Premier Cru. The '23 'Chablis Beauroy 1er' comes from several different parcels of varying soils in one of the regions best-known Premier Cru sites and comes packed with power. This is also available in magnum! Finally, the '23 'Chablis Côte de Léchet 1er' is one of the finest Premier Crus in the region and produces a wine with extraordinary energy and minerality. These wines sell for a fraction of the Dauvissat wines so don't hesitate!
