P&V Wine + Liquor

03/07/2025

New to our .oceania this week - a tribute week to some of our favourite humans Living Wines. Straight up, natural wine wouldn’t be anywhere in Australia without Sue Dyson and Roger McShane, the intrepid Tasmanian importers who started Living Wines in 2008. Long before catchphrases like ‘low-intervention’, ‘spontaneous fermentation’ and ‘no sulphur’ were common parlance, these two were scooting around France, forging connections with the likes of Philippe Bornard, Jean-Pierre Robinot, Alice and Olivier de Moor along with other leading lights. Their indomitable portfolio now spans some 65 producers, whose wines are the envy of keen-eyed collectors worldwide and a constant on the best restaurant and bar lists across the country. 

Needless to say, we love Rog and Sue, and we can’t believe how deep in the cellar they’ve dug to deliver this ballistic line-up to drink from the Enomatic machine at our Paddo wine bar, L’Avant Cave. Huge gratitude to the wonderful duo… This week it’s again next level: + 2011 Domaine Bornard Les Chassagnes – A holy grail Jura savagnin, made by Philippe himself some years ahead of his retirement. Sue herself says: “I will try not to think about the consequences of parting with this…” + 2018 Belluard Les Alpes – Before his shocking and untimely death, Dominique Belluard crafted this alpine epic.
+ 2020 Jean-Pierre Robinot Bistrologie 2020 – Chenin blanc from a true, picked from 40-year-old vines and rested on lees for 15 months. + 2019 Alice et Olivier De Moor 2019 Aligoté ‘Plantation 1902’ – Fashioned from vines that pre-date phylloxera, planted in 1902. + 2016 Bruyere & Houillon Les Tourillons – The one we all know you’re waiting for. It’s 80/20 blend of chardonnay and savagnin. Special. + 2020 Michel Gahier Le Clousot – never sleep on Gahier. And never sleep on trousseau from Gahier. See you for half and full glasses until they run out x

Whoa! By the glass, of the future! For the next month we’re going deep on very, very special wines. We’ve partnered up with .oceania and will have this wine dispensing tech all July to help us share incredibly rare, cellared and hard-to-find wines. Each week will be a different collection, bottles replaced as they sell out. We’re grateful for our deep cellar, but also amazing friends from Living Wines (with more to be announced) for helping kick off our launch party - with more to come… stay tuned for line-ups. First up: Cotat Cuvée Paul 2007 (yes, and in scintillating form!), Bornard Vin Jaune 2015 (power and presence and vibrancy), Gravner Ribolla 2016 (hedonism, beauty) and Rinaldi Tre Tine Barolo 2020 (all the finesse). If you’ve never tried these wines, or curious as to how they’re drinking, well, let us Enomatic you… very cool. We start now! Glasses at the ready. Pouring prettily. X

And now a lil’ something for the collectors and cult seekers out there, straight from the northern Jura. Etienne Thiebaud founded Domaine des Cavarodes in 2007,when he was in his 20s, having acquired some parcels of old vines (some up to 120 years!) planted to endemic Jura varieties just outside the Arbois. His five hectares also comprise plots within the Arbois, which he converted to organic at the very start. He’s known for his tireless ethic in the vineyard, applying biodynamic treatments in accordance with the lunar calendar and ploughing the land with the help of his horse. Intervention doesn’t get more minimal than this, quite frankly, and demand – unsurprisingly – now drastically exceeds supply. We’ve managed to get our hands on a very select few, so consider it your lucky day... website sales only. Go forth x
