Selection
Sacchetto Prosecco Brut
$27.99Fresh citrus with hints of honey and white flowers on the nose. The flavour is fresh and clean, with ripe citrus, lemon and green apple. The finish is light, refreshing and deliciously crisp.
Antonio Scala 2022 Ciro Classico
$36.99A superb single-vineyard Ciró Rosso made from 100% Gaglioppo grown in sandy clay soils, fermented in stainless steel and aged in concrete for a year. It has an enticing nose of red fruits, orange peel, scrub-brush, baking spices, and a deeper, cherry kirsch sweetness.
Antonio Scala 2022 Ciro Blanco
$33.99100% Greco, from a 2 hectare vineyard located in Cirò (Crotone district). Spicy, fresh aromas of peach, quince and honeysuckle hold much allure. The palate is white spice, salty, fresh and focused. This is an irresistible example of the native Greco grape.
“I think greco bianco (unrelated to Campania’s greco di Tufo) is potentially one of Italy’s best native grape varieties.” – Ian d’Agata
Montezemolo 2019 Monfalleto Barolo
$112.9995 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate (2019 Vintage):
“The 2019 Barolo Monfalletto (made with organic fruit selection from across the vineyards that surround the winery in La Morra) shows grit, density and rich texture. The house style prizes muscle and brawn in this vintage that lends itself handily to these qualities. Pressed cherry and blackberry cede to licorice, cured tobacco and iron ore.”
The Nebbiolo that comes off this property is some of the best in La Morra. Even in challenging vintages the Monfalletto terroir yields Nebbiolo that is both powerful and supple. Insiders know that this is one of the best terroirs in Barolo. The 2019 vintage is perhaps its best yet, with stellar ratings across the board – it captures the true essence of the Langhe region.

Champalou 2020 Vouvray Sec 2019
$44.99A delicate straw yellow in colour. Aromas of green apples and quince. Dry, supple and elegant on the palate with further green fruit notes. The crisp finish makes this an ideal food wine. Try with a wild rice salad, escalopes of pork with a fennel and green bean salad or with a simple grilled trout.
Chateau d’Aydie 2017 Madiran
$59.99Deep, intense ruby red. Fine, elegant and complex on the nose, with a blend of black fruit and coffee aromas. It starts off rich and follows through with a mature consistency and silky tannins. Fine, precise woody mouth aromas. An exceptional Madiran, powerful and complex, with unusual potential. This wine can very easily be kept for 7 to 10 years.
Champalou 2020 Vouvray Fondraux
$47.99100% Chenin Blanc. A hint of residual sweetness which gives concentration and fullness to the palate. White flowers dominate the nose which helps out its freshness and minerality. Pairs perfectly with seafood and cold dishes.
Serge Mathieu 2009 Brut Millesime
$124.99It has structure, power and length, and bears the mark of its Pinot Noir. It clearly shows all the work that has been carried out in the vineyards since only very ripe and small grapes can produce such density and structure in a Champagne. 8.6 grams dosage.
Entirely made from Pinot Noir… clear, fresh and straight fruit of yellow skinned apples and Williams pears along with citrus flavors and some stony notes on the nose. This is remarkably elegant and delicate with a mineral backbone and an excellent grippy finish.
Fleury Brut Rose Saignee
$119.99100% Pinot Noir made by maceration with all of the skins in contact with all of the juice – yet remains incredibly elegant in both weight and style.
In the glass it has a wonderful, fresh Pinot Noir nose of strawberry fruit and forest air intrigue.
La Fea 2023 Tempranillo Garnacha
$18.99Intense aromas of blackberries and dark cherries are paired with a smooth, balanced and full mouthfeel. A terrific value, it’s an excellent everyday wine with red meat, pasta and cheese.
Fleury Blanc De Noirs Brut
$99.99100% Pinot Noir.
A real deal Champagne, it is both fruity and delicate, and decidedly elegant with a neverending finish.
Classic, smooth, and very rich in style, it is mouthwateringly dry with a wonderful black cherry fruit quality .
Rust En Vrede 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon
$61.99Expressive black fruit jumps out of the glass. Juicy black cherry and cassis combine with blueberries, licorice and sandalwood. Full bodied and intense on the palate. Fine grained, grippy tannins balance well with a fresh, black-fruit acidity. Tobacco, nutmeg and savory spice bring complex layers to mulberry and bramble fruit that round out the palate. A typically well-structured Cabernet with excellent length.
91pts Wine Spectator: ‘A fresh, harmonious Cabernet, offering ripe boysenberry and cassis fruit flavors counterpointed by savory notes of bay leaf, graphite, smoke and woodsy spices, with refined tannins. Drink now through 2028.’
Serge Mathieu Brut Prestige N/V
$89.9970% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay
There’s an intensity to this firm Champagne, with structuring notes of white peach, pear and lime, stony mineral notes and a hint of beeswax. Vivacious, with a chalky sensation on the finish. An incredible value!
Bonaval Nv Cava Brut Nature
$19.99Dry and crisp, a floral thread accents fresh flavours of apple, peach and citrus. Firm acidity frames this dry, lightly spiced cava. An ideal pairing with sushi, soft cheeses and roasted almonds.
