It’s a terrific example of where Roederer is going with this cuvée stylistically. Brisk saline notes cut through a core of orchard fruit, mint, white pepper and slate. There are no hard angles or awkward contours. The 246 is based on 2021, an extremely tricky vintage for Champagne. Chef de Caves Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon bumped up the percentage of Chardonnay considerably and focused on Pinots from the Montagne de Reims. About 30% of the lots underwent malolactic fermentation to soften the edges. Twenty-four percent of the wines were fermented in oak, the rest in tank. The 246 is a blend of 55% base 2021 vintage wines described above, plus 30% perpetual reserve going back to 2012 (mostly from Cumières, Vertus and Verzy) in tank and 10% young-vine juice from Cristal plots aged in cask. The final blend is 54% Chardonnay (as opposed to the more typical 44%), 35% Pinot Noir and 11% Meunier. Dosage is 7 grams per liter. More importantly, the 246 is impeccably done and absolutely delicious.

This is cool climate viticulture at its best. The vines are planted on a north\/westerly facing slope for maximum exposure to sunlight. Vine age at time of harvest is 28 years. The vines are dry grown, cane pruned and handpicked, which in turn encourages low yields. In the winery the grapes are 75% destemmed, 25% whole fermented in small open fermenters. The must is given around four days for pre-fermentation maceration and fermented using a range of yeasts. The fermentation takes around 21 days to complete. Post ferment the must is pressed using an airbag press and then settled for two weeks before being racked to barrel. In barrel full malo-lactic fermentation is carried out. This wine is then matured for 10 months on lees in new to four-year-old, small French oak barriques.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003ePemberton based\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ePicardy is owned and operated by Bill, Sandra and Dan Pannell.

Today, the keys of this historical estate belong to Franco and Roberto Massolino who work with gifted, ex-Vajra winemaker Giovanni Angeli. Behind Massolino’s rise to the apex of Barolo lies their remarkable collections of Serralunga vineyards, including choice parcels of such famous sites as; Margheria, Parafada and the legendary Vigna Rionda where the Massolino family is the largest holders with 3.5 hectares of vines (two are planted to Nebbiolo) between 40 and 50 years old. Outside of this commune, Massolino also tends vines in the great Parussi Cru of Castiglione Falletto. Massolino’s Barolos sit comfortably among the finest of the region—they are wines of wonderful purity and elegance.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe quality strides at this estate over the last decade or so have been truly remarkable with significant advances made, particularly in the vineyards. The Massolino Estate has now been organic for six years with no herbicides used for ten. The evolution of the work in the vineyards over that time has been impressive and is showing through in the wines. The team has introduced more competition through grass cover, and no systemic chemicals are used: only copper and sulphur against mildew and only ‘sexual confusion’ to combat pests. \u003c\/span\u003eToday the Nebbiolo-based wines of Massolino sit comfortably among the finest of the region—they are wines of wonderful purity and elegance. In one sense they are ‘traditional’ and yet they offer the best of the “old” and “new” worlds: pure, aromatic, textural, deeply flavoured wines that are at the same time precise, vibrant and distinctly regional. Equally important, Massolino’s Barolos are remarkably well priced when compared to the other top producers of the area.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAlongside Massolino’s Barolo, we must reserve a good deal of excitement for their early drinking releases that starts with the delicious Dolcetto and runs seamlessly through the Barbera, to basic Nebbiolo before arriving at the top tier wines. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eItaly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ePiedmont\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSUB-REGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Langhe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riesling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e White\u003c\/span\u003e Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eGiovanni Angeli\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eOrganic Farming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screwcap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e12.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heritage Wine Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43614692278421,"sku":"2599","price":92.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260260.jpg?v=1788763904"},{"product_id":"juve-camps-gran-reserva-cava-2017","title":"Juvé \u0026 Camps Gran Reserva Cava 2017","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE WINE: \u003c\/strong\u003eGran Reserva is inspired by the great Blanc de Blancs that offer crisp flavors and can withstand longer ageing.

The Laurel Vineyard sits atop Bald Peak at a lofty 381 metres and was originally planted to Pinot Noir in 1981 by owner John Albin for use in his sparkling and rosé programme. When Barnaby Tuttle first approached John to purchase fruit to make the first Bergspitze (mountaintop in German) Pinot Noir in 2009, many considered it a foolish endeavour. Surely the site was too cool and the fruit too lean? Again, Barnaby proved his detractors wrong, crafting an elegant and ethereal Pinot Noir that instantly made waves in the restaurant scene and quickly sold out. In Barney’s words: “It went viral”. It wasn’t just the lofty elevation that drew Barnaby to the Laurel vineyard. The Pinot Noir clone is the Alsatian Coury, brought to the region from Alsace in a suitcase by Charles Coury in 1965. The soils are loamy and volcanic, rich in nutrients and with a unique ability to regulate temperature. The site is dry-farmed and managed organically. As is the norm at Teutonic, the fruit was left on the vine for as long as possible before being handpicked, sorted, destemmed and fermented in open-top vessels using a pied de cuve started in the vineyard. After three weeks with daily punch-downs, the wine was pressed and settled before going to old barrels for maturation. Sitting at a subtle and restrained 12%, the 2021 bursts with bright fruits and elegant, age worthy structure. \u003cstrong\u003eBibendum\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBlame it on the Mosel.

To say he was inspired would be an understatement: Tuttle listed every single wine for the restaurant where he worked. Yet Tuttle’s epiphany would have further-reaching ramifications than his new wine list. He spent the next few years meeting as many winemakers as possible, peppering them with questions to shore up his scientific knowledge. He planted a test vineyard at his house and made wine as a hobby. He made pilgrimages to the Mosel to learn from those growers who had inspired him. In 2005, the opportunity arose for Barnaby and his wife, Olga, to plant a vineyard on their friend’s farm just outside the AVA boundary of the Willamette Valley on the eastern flank of the Coast Range. They jumped in with both feet and, come 2008, Barnaby and Olga had quit their day jobs to set up Teutonic wines. Today, they work with several cool, old-vine, dry-farmed, high-elevation sites throughout the Willamette Valley and beyond, making fresh, linear, lithe single-vineyard wines that speak clearly of site, soil and season. Unlike many in Oregon, and the Willamette Valley in particular, Barnaby and Olga are not constrained by boundaries. They work with many great sites that fall outside the nested AVAs and—in the case of Alsea—even the Willamette Valley boundary itself. “There are so many great vineyards and terroirs labelled as Willamette Valley or even just Oregon,” he says. But if the climate is right, every soil has a story to tell, and I see it as my responsibility to tell the story of that soil, of that site. It’s the vineyard that’s the story at the end of the day.” Everything at Teutonic begins and ends with the site: first in finding, then farming and finally in gently guiding and developing the singular character of each vineyard and variety into the bottle. Working with passionate and dedicated growers, all of Teutonic’s sources are cool-climate, dry-grown sites farmed either sustainably or organically by dedicated growers. They search for balanced crops with maximum hang time―Barnaby picks incredibly late compared to some of his colleagues―to allow for slower ripening thereby building more complexity at lower sugar levels and higher acidities. Vineyard yeasts kick-start each fermentation—Tuttle uses a pied de cuve to further instill site-specific biology in the wines. The soils vary, but many vineyards lie on Bellpine soils—a variant of the Willamette Valley’s famous Jory soils—which are rich in iron and have excellent drainage. In the cellar, it’s all about shepherding the quality of the fruit into the bottle. Save for a little sulphur, nothing is added. And it should go without saying that no new wood is allowed to distort the purity of these wild-fermented wines, which are bottled unfined and unfiltered. The range of white wines includes Riesling, Pinot Gris, Grüner Veltliner and Pinot Blanc, with mainly Pinot Noir and Meunier for the reds, which are bottled in Alsatian flutes in keeping with Teutonic’s Germanic inspiration.  \u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBibendum\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oregon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSUB-REGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Willamette Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barnaby \u0026amp; Olga Tuttle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimal Intervention, Unfined \u0026amp; Unfiltered, Minimal Sulphites, Organic Farming, Vegan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.16%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heritage Wine Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44334655832213,"sku":"3012","price":101.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Teutonic-Bergspitze-Pinot-Noir-2021-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1730366120"},{"product_id":"teutonic-borgo-pass-vineyard-pinot-meunier-2022","title":"Teutonic 'Borgo Pass Vineyard' Pinot Meunier 2022","description":"\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eABOUT THE WINE: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Borgo Pass vineyard is located in Monroe in the southern Willamette Valley, north of Eugene and south of Salem.

The range of white wines includes Riesling, Pinot Gris, Grüner Veltliner and Pinot Blanc, with mainly Pinot Noir and Meunier for the reds, which are bottled in Alsatian flutes in keeping with Teutonic’s Germanic inspiration. \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBibendum\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oregon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSUB-REGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Willamette Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Barnaby \u0026amp; Olga Tuttle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimal Intervention, Unfined \u0026amp; Unfiltered, Minimal Sulphites, Organic Farming, Vegan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heritage Wine Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44445885235349,"sku":"3044","price":101.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Teutonic-Borgo-Pass-Vineyard-Pinot-Meunier-2022-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1730280380"},{"product_id":"praeter-langhe-nebbiolo-2023","title":"Praeter Langhe Nebbiolo 2023","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE: \u003c\/strong\u003e\"Super delicious example of Nebbiolo.

Praeter is a wine’s story, miles and years from home… Matt Large is a busy man, but at the core of his pursuit is his own brand, Praeter, the name of which is a nod to the idea that wine is an extension and amplification of the expression of nature. Matt is an intuitive winemaker, always seeking to create precise and sensitive wines that clearly express a sense of place, while employing best-practice sustainable viticulture. This talent was recognised early in his career and led to a relatively rapid ascension through the winemaking ranks. Having previously worked as Assistant Winemaker and Vineyard Manager at Shadowfax Winery – across their Macedon Ranges sites – Matt has recently accepted a role as senior winemaker at Shaw + Smith and Tolpuddle Vineyard under Adam Wadewitz. For a long time, Matt had a desire to work in Piedmont and grasp the intricacies of the vineyards, as well as learn the traditional techniques of Barolo and Barbaresco. Enter Peter Johns, who introduced Matt to ex-Bruno Giacosa winemaker Francesco Versio in 2017, creating a watershed moment in the development of the Praeter brand. Matt worked vintage with Francesco in 2017 at Figli Luigi Oddero in La Morra and was asked to take on a permanent Assistant Vintage Winemaker role – a position he still holds today. Using fruit from Luigi Oddero’s vineyards, Matt also made his first wine there, the 2017 Vino Rosso. After that first vintage stint, in 2018 Matt managed to secure a parcel of Nebbiolo from the Malakoff vineyard in Victoria, and the Praeter offering was fleshed out a little more. From 2020, Matt released a trio of reds, including a Langhe Nebbiolo DOC and Vino Rosso IGT and he has rounded this off with the release in 2022 of his first Chinato, an adventurous new project from this dynamic young winemaker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION: \u003c\/strong\u003ePiedmont\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:  \u003c\/strong\u003eNebbiolo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE: \u003c\/strong\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER: \u003c\/strong\u003eMatt Large\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sustainable Farming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%: \u003c\/strong\u003e14.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE: \u003c\/strong\u003e750ml\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Heritage Wine Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44811872370837,"sku":"3103","price":87.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260259.jpg?v=1788763802"},{"product_id":"au-bon-climat-santa-barbara-county-chardonnay-2023","title":"Au Bon Climat 'Santa Barbara County' Chardonnay 2023","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE: \u003c\/strong\u003eA beautiful example of the Au Bon Climat style.

Grape growing in this region dates back more than 200 years, with Swiss settlers planting Victoria’s first vineyards here in the early 1800s. The rich volcanic soil and continental climate at our estate produces premium fruit with a flavour, bouquet and colour that is unique to our surrounding area. Gary and Robyn Farr purchased the original property in 1994 and the second section in 1998—this latter had been untouched for almost 40 years and consisted of dense boxthorn and noxious weeds. The final piece of the puzzle, which links the two blocks of land, was purchased by Nick and Cassie Farr in 2011, making a total of 130 acres—of which 36 acres are under vine and the remainder is maintained as grazing and cropping for cattle and horses. With a mixture of different clones and rootstocks, the grape varieties grown here are viognier, chardonnay, pinot noir, gamay and shiraz. Nick and Gary Farr stand side by side but aren’t afraid to go head-to-head when their opinions differ.

The wines from this site often often challenge those from its more famous neighbor, especially in hot, dry years. Graacher wines  attract with their racy acidity, a pronounced minerality (that reminds of crushed rock) and slightly different fruit aromas and flavours (more in the citrus spectrum). Often, the wines become accessible slightly earlier than the Wehlener Sonnenuhr and are deliciously mouth-watering when young. Looking at the vineyard conditions, the hill faces slightly more westwards than the Wehlener Sonnenuhr , i.e. it has a more south-west exposure, it is a little less steep and has deeper soils which act as excellent water reservoirs. Of the levels of sweetness in the Pradikatswein classification, Kabinett is the lightest style, produced from the least ripe grapes compared to the Spatlese and Auslese level wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER:\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe J.J.

They make wines exclusively from the Adelaide Hills, from varieties that suit the cooler climate: Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Shiraz. Shaw + Smith own two vineyards, in Lenswood and Balhannah. Growing the best possible grapes, managing vineyards sustainably, and valuing vine health, soil health, and low yields are central to the Shaw + Smith approach. In the pursuit of quality, all grapes continue to be hand-picked, and the wines are fermented, aged and bottled on site at Balhannah. The wines are vibrant, medium bodied expressions of their varieties that reflect their sites and region. Shaw + Smith’s first vintage was in 1990, and the early vintages were made at Wirra Wirra and Petaluma. In 1999 they purchased a property at Balhannah, where they planted vines, and built the winery and tasting room in time for the 2000 vintage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAustralia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eREGION:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAdelaide Hills, South Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eVARIETAL: \u003c\/b\u003eShiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWINE STYLE: \u003c\/b\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eMartin Shaw \u0026amp; Adam Wadewitz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCLASSIFICATION: \u003c\/b\u003eSustainable Farming, Vegan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCLOSURE:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eScrewcap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eABV%:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e13.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSIZE:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385293463701,"sku":"3908","price":112.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260230.jpg?v=1786505990"},{"product_id":"johann-michel-cornas-2021","title":"Johann Michel Cornas 2021","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE: \u003c\/strong\u003e\"Bright and intense both in colour and in aroma.

Because of this verticality, machinery cannot be used, so the 40-year-old vines are tended to by hand. The ‘Lutte Raisonnée’ method is mostly organic, but un-certified, and sometimes engages the use of synthetic chemicals. He does incorporate some biodynamic practices, such as using a cooper treatment on the vines. Johann works to keep his yields low (of which the region is already notoriously low at 33 hl\/ha), resulting in intensely concentrated grapes to wines that are a true expression of this powerful terroir.

A nursery was planted in 1974 with vineyard sites planted from 1975. Enjoying its first commercial vintage in 1979, Leeuwin Estate was thrust into the global wine spotlight when Decanter Magazine highly recommended the 1981 “Art Series” Chardonnay after an international blind tasting. The accolades have continued, with Leeuwin Estate wines found in leading Restaurants and Wine Merchants across 30 markets. Now under the stewardship of three generations of the founding family, who work alongside a team of dedicated viticulturalists and winemakers, the focus remains firmly on creating site expressive wines of the finest quality. Celebrating the art of fine wine, the Estate’s most opulent and age worthy wines, the “Art Series’ are identified with paintings from Australia’s leading contemporary artists on the labels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Margaret River, Western Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tim Lovett\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sustainable Farming \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screwcap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%: \u003c\/strong\u003e13,5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385297920149,"sku":"3817","price":105.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Leeuwin-Estate-Art-Series-Cabernet-Sauvignon-2022-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop_5899d090.jpg?v=1769159208"},{"product_id":"faber-vineyard-reserve-shiraz-2022","title":"Faber Vineyard 'Reserve' Shiraz 2022","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"\u003cspan\u003eEschewing the tendency for shiraz of the region to reflect warm-climate and bold flavours, this is far more a refined, medium-bodied affair, with flair of dark cherry and blackberry fruit characters with more typical tobacco, clove and panforte in the fruit mix.

We feel these vines have the perfect balance of fruit and shoots, the crop is lighter here, the vines a little more open, and the berries marginally smaller. The fruit is harvested only a day or two later than the other rows, but is always riper than the other shiraz. We use a barrel coopered in Burgundy – we love them for the wonderful smoky aroma and sweetness they add to the wine. The oak is obvious but not dominant.

He recognized that the Swan Valley was unique in its ability to produce delicate, refined white wines, smooth generously flavoured and long-lived red wines, and extremely rich luscious liqueur styles. As he refined his winemaking skills he learnt about the proven grape varieties and wine styles that had over one hundred years of development and success in the Swan Valley. The Swan Valley delivers wonderful ripe fruit, warm and concentrated flavours and soft tannins. John’s winemaking focuses on achieving flavour, extraction and fruit sweetness. This creates structured wines that are flavoursome and drinkable, with the ability to develop and improve in bottle. His approach to winemaking is simple and uncomplicated – starting with outstanding fruit quality, attention to detail, and literally hand making all our wines. John has chosen to embrace what are traditional varieties for the Swan Valley – Verdelho, Shiraz and Brown Muscat – as the “backbone” of Faber Vineyard. He has delivered his own interpretation of these varieties, all be it built on tradition, and set new standards of excellence. He has also innovated with new varieties, introducing Petit Verdot to the Swan, and new styles including his Chardonnay Blanc de Blanc. He has sourced outstanding fruit from outside the Swan Valley that complements the Swan’s strengths. Superb Cabernet Sauvignon from Frankland River and unique Durif from Donnybrook stand out. Faber’s continuing winemaking quest is to grow and source distinctive grapes and craft wines that are rich and flavoursome. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFaber Vineyard\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swan Valley, Western Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shiraz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e John Griffiths \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION: \u003c\/strong\u003eSustainable Farming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385299427477,"sku":"3832","price":91.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Faber-Vineyard-Reserve-Shiraz-2021-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop_25115a8b.jpg?v=1772010358"},{"product_id":"domaine-faiveley-bourgogne-rouge-2023","title":"Domaine Faiveley Bourgogne Rouge 2023","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE: \u003c\/strong\u003e\"This is quite a serious wine for the humble appellation.

Since 2007 Jerome Flous has been the technical director in charge of the production. The grapes are entirely destemmed and fermented in new wooden vats for the finer wines, conical stainless-steel tanks for the lesser cuvees. There is less emphasis on extraction than in Francois Faiveley's time, though the juice will still be punched down during fermentation. The most obvious change, though, is in the barrel cellar: here, the previous supplier has been replaced by Francois Freres, Taransaud and three other coopers. Both premier and grand cru wines may get two-thirds new wood.

The soils are the classic clay and limestone of the Côte, and the vines are 35 years old on average. The grapes were handpicked and mostly destemmed before natural fermentation. The wine matured for 12 months in a mix of steel vats and large used barrels. Pillot employs roughly 50% bunches for this wine for structure and perfume—a surprising quantity for this level (until you taste the wine). It’s a deep, fleshy Bourgogne that is simply brilliant for the level. Do not hesitate. \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003eThierry Pillot, well supported by his sister Chrystelle, continues to produce benchmark, pure and intense white Burgundies at his family Domaine. The quality reflects the impressive work in the vines (13 people working 12 hectares of vineyards), as well as incremental evolution in the cellar. Despite the quality and the ever-increasing demand, Thierry and his family remain as humble and discreet as ever: there is no Instagram here! With each vintage, the wines here get purer and more refined. Thierry is great friends with Vincent Dancer, Marc Bachelet, Arnaud Mortet and many other young guns of Burgundy. He is part of a revolution that has been sweeping through the Côte d’Or: a zeitgeist being driven by a new generation. The wines of his father were always good, in no small part due to the quality of the holdings. However, it is strikingly clear to us, and regular visitors like Allen Meadows, that this invigorated address has well and truly kicked things up a gear and now bears comparison with the very best that the Côte de Beaune has to offer. The Pillot’s farm first class holdings in some of Chassagne’s greatest vineyards; La Romanée, Les Grandes Ruchottes, Les Caillerets and La Grande Montagne. The Domaine also makes a stunning Clos St-Jean from the heart of the original Clos traditionally called Chassagne du Clos Saint-Jean. The Pillot family owns just over one hectare here—split equally between Pinot Noir and Chardonnay—and are, in fact, the largest owners in the Clos. In the cellar, the winemaking is geared towards preserving freshness: this is a Domaine obsessed with tension, and Pillot’s whites deliver these qualities in spades. Thierry prefers to crush his grapes before pressing (for lees) and there is no settling, temperature control or battonage. The grapes simply ferment on high solids and wild yeasts at their own pace. Large-format casks of 350 and 500-litres are the fermenting and aging vessels of choice. The whites are fermented wild and matured for 12-18 months on lees in these barrels, before six months in tank. The lees are never stirred, and the wines are bottled unfiltered. Thierry Pillot’s red wines have really come of age in recent years, to the point where they now hold their own compared with the Domaine’s whites. Pillot’s friendship and gentle rivalry with brother-in-law Arnaud Mortet may have played a part in this improvement. The reds are fermented with between 20-60% whole bunches, and like the whites, very little (if any) new oak is used. \u003cstrong\u003eBibendum\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e France \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Burgundy \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSUB-REGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eCôte\u003c\/span\u003e de Beaune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pinot Noir \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thierry Pillot \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unfined \u0026amp; Unfiltered, Sustainable Farming, Vegan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45442719482005,"sku":"4107","price":126.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Paul-Pillot-Bourgogne-Rouge-2023-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1758272813"},{"product_id":"henschke-peggys-hill-riesling-2025-magnum","title":"Henschke 'Peggy's Hill' Riesling 2025 Magnum","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Pale in the glass with just a youthful flash of green and aromas of freshly squeezed lime, Bickford's lime cordial and hints of Christmas lilies, crushed stone, green apple, citrus blossom, lemongrass and makrut lime.

We planted these brown muscat vines on our home and each vintage hand pick the semi-fried raisins that make just a few barrels of luscious wine. The wine is kept in old oak hogsheads for many tears to allow the spirit to mellow and the flavours to develop and become fabulously rich. As we age over the years so too will this wine, becoming deeper in colour, the aroma and flavour more intense. Liqueur wines have been made in the Swan Valley for over a hundred years. The hot summers are ideal for ripening the grapes until they reach over 50 percent sugar. These wines will age and improve in barrel and bottle for many, many years. This wine is a blend of our best vintages, the oldest being the first vintage. Every few years we make a new blend combining the richness of the very old wines with the freshness of younger vintages. Yet we always hold some back to ensure we have enough treasures to pass onto our children and them to theirs.\" \u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFaber Vineyard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFaber Vineyard was established in 1997 by John Griffiths and Jane Micallef.

He recognized that the Swan Valley was unique in its ability to produce delicate, refined white wines, smooth generously flavoured and long-lived red wines, and extremely rich luscious liqueur styles. As he refined his winemaking skills he learnt about the proven grape varieties and wine styles that had over one hundred years of development and success in the Swan Valley. The Swan Valley delivers wonderful ripe fruit, warm and concentrated flavours and soft tannins. John’s winemaking focuses on achieving flavour, extraction and fruit sweetness. This creates structured wines that are flavoursome and drinkable, with the ability to develop and improve in bottle. His approach to winemaking is simple and uncomplicated – starting with outstanding fruit quality, attention to detail, and literally hand making all our wines. John has chosen to embrace what are traditional varieties for the Swan Valley – Verdelho, Shiraz and Brown Muscat – as the “backbone” of Faber Vineyard. He has delivered his own interpretation of these varieties, all be it built on tradition, and set new standards of excellence. He has also innovated with new varieties, introducing Petit Verdot to the Swan, and new styles including his Chardonnay Blanc de Blanc. He has sourced outstanding fruit from outside the Swan Valley that complements the Swan’s strengths. Superb Cabernet Sauvignon from Frankland River and unique Durif from Donnybrook stand out. Faber’s continuing winemaking quest is to grow and source distinctive grapes and craft wines that are rich and flavoursome. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFaber Vineyard\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Swan Valley, Western Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brown Muscat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fortified Wine \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e John Griffiths \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION: \u003c\/strong\u003eSustainable Farming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 500ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45494791831701,"sku":"4189","price":84.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Faber-Vineyard-Liqueur-Muscat-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1733821552"},{"product_id":"lallier-reflexion-r-021-champagne","title":"Lallier 'Reflexion R.021' Champagne","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe harvest of 2021, which makes up 70% of Réflexion R.021 offers intense citrus aromas completed by elegant floral notes, testimony to the elegance of the 2021 wines.

They did a soft vinification with short pumping overs to avoid extraction, and the fermentation lasted two to three weeks followed by four weeks of maceration. The wine matured in oak vat, barrel and amphorae for 18 months. It's super aromatic, floral and expressive, clean and elegant, delicate and ethereal. It has a velvety palate that is nicely textured, seamless, elegant and balanced and with a focused, clean, long finish. I see the meaty side of Syrah here. It has 14.5% alcohol with a pH of 3.3.

While studying law in Paris in her 20s, Daphne first discovered fine wine while working as the office manager for Kit Stevens MW. What was simply a job to make ends meet would soon become her advocation. Shortly after taking the job with Kit, she met René Barbier and Álvaro Palacios, who were both so passionate about a place called the Priorat that she decided she needed to visit and see it for herself. In her early vintages, Daphne relied on her friends René Barbier and Álvaro Palacios for advice, but guided by her instincts and her training in Burgundy, where she first discovered wine, her wines have evolved to become some of the most sought-after references for the Priorat – and along the way, some of the most desired wines in the world. Despite having received multiple 100 point scores from top critics, Daphne has kept Clos i Terrasses modest in size and has not dramatically increased her production of Clos Erasmus, preferring to create a second, equally expressive wine, Laurel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Catalonia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSUB-REGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Priorat \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80% \u003cspan\u003eGrenache, 11% Syrah, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eDaphne Glorian\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Organic Farming \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%: \u003c\/strong\u003e14.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45526195404949,"sku":"4269","price":125.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Clos-I-Terrasses-Laurel-Grenache-Blend-2020-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1744016634"},{"product_id":"forest-hill-block-9-shiraz-2013","title":"Forest Hill 'Block 9' Shiraz 2013","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Includes 1% cabernet sauvignon, hand-picked, destemmed and crushed, open-fermented, cultured yeast, matured in French oak (35% new) for 18 months.

Occupying the slope overlooking Maté’s Vineyard, it has always contributed lovely ripe and rich fruit to the Estate Chardonnay.

Mick passed away in 1949, but Kate and Mate continued to work the land and produce wine to sell. Mate met his wife Melba in the late 50's and in the 1960's they welcomed children Michael, Marijana, Milan, and Paul. For the children, being brought up around the winery established a strong foundation of industry knowledge and skill that would take the winery to a new level of success in the years to come. Although the winery and Maté were steadily gaining a reputation within the industry, it was the late 1970s and early 1980s that saw a marked evolution in the style and direction of the winery. In 1979, the winery moved away from the hybrids used for the production of fortified and basic red and white wines to varieties such as Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. All popular and commonly known varieties today, these wines were relatively unheard of at that stage, posing a bold and somewhat risky move for the winery. \u003cspan\u003eDuring the 1980s, Michael, Milan, and Paul became more involved in the business and the winery took on a new focus: quality and reputation. The winery changed its name to Kumeu River Wines and began producing a Burgundy-influenced style of Chardonnay that featured indigenous yeasts, extended lees ageing, and malo-lactic fermentation. In the years since, the Chardonnays of Kumeu River have steadily gained international awards and accolades. In 2014 Kumeu River's London based distributer Stephen Browett and his company Farr Vintners organize a blind tasting with the best palates, critics and wine writers in the world. Kumeu's Maté's, Coddington, Hunting Hill and Estate Chardonnays are placed against a range of Premier Cru and Village Burgundies from the best producers. Kumeu triumphed over top white Burgundies in every flight apart from one, where it came first equal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e New Zealand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hawkes Bay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Michael Brajkovich\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sustainable Farming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screwcap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45583045263509,"sku":"4373","price":125.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260022.jpg?v=1778483671"},{"product_id":"mchenry-hohnen-burnside-vineyard-chardonnay-2023","title":"McHenry Hohnen 'Burnside Vineyard' Chardonnay 2023","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \"From a site planted in '81 by legend David Hohnen.

Intense and tensile wines are the calling card here, pure and unadorned by style and consistently high in quality. Indeed, I sometimes think that Louis Michel is the most underrated of Chablis's great domaines. Certainly, prices remain very reasonable. As usual, certain cuvées stand out—at the premier cru level, the old vine Butteaux, the Fourchaume (from Vaulorent) and the Séchet, Montée de Tonnerre having taken a beating in recent vintages—but the overall standard, even for the lower appellations, is regular and high.

On the Bachelet side there are connections to the Bouzereau and Morey clans, the latter being the source of their excellent Meursault Clos du Cromin. To begin with they rented the vines of a domaine basid in Puligny, but this was sold to Faiveley in 2008 - albeit with the brother's contract in place to farm the vines. In 2010 an agreement was reached by which they were bought out of this contract, but were able to purchase some of the vineyards concerned: notably a tiny plot of of Bâtard-Montrachet. Finally in 2011, the domaine reached its current 23ha when their father handed on his holdings. In a few instances wines are from grapes bought from domaines that they have farmed themselves. The white grapes are crushed, pressed for three hours, with the juice then fermented without settling. Since starting out, Marc and Alexandre have cut down the proportion of new oak from 35 per cent to an average of 25, varying from 10 per cent for generic Bourgogne Blanc up to one-third for the \u003cem\u003egrand cru\u003c\/em\u003e; they have also stopped using less-stirring as a technique. The white wines (two-thirds of the production) spend one year in 350-litre barrels then 6-8 months in tank on their lees. These are energetic wines with a crystalline profile, yet with the intensity to make them ageworthy. The reds, where most of the progress has been of late, now see less new wood, with no more cold maceration, a bit less sulphur, shorter vatting time with a few whole bunches, not, though, for the clay-rich Clos de la Boutière. In short, a relaxation of control in order to allow more expression. \u003cstrong\u003e Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e France \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eCôte de Beaune, \u003c\/span\u003eBurgundy \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marc Bachelet, Alexandre Bachelet \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sustainable Farming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45660099772565,"sku":"4515","price":135.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260348.jpg?v=1789613860"},{"product_id":"crittenden-cri-de-coeur-savagnin-sous-voile-2019","title":"Crittenden 'Cri De Coeur' Savagnin Sous Voile 2019","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTE: \u003c\/strong\u003e\"Incredibly fresh, to the point more citrus flavours come to the fore rather than oxidative complexity alone.

As Stephen and Fiona Pannell’s first vineyard, Koomilya has been the realisation of a long-held vision to create modern Shiraz which harks back to a tradition of what McLaren Vale Shiraz looked like in the 1960s. Wedged between the original Upper Tintara vineyard – planted by the famous Doctor Kelly in 1862, and the Hope Farm or Seaview vineyard established in the early 1850s by George Manning,  Koomilya’s landscape and microclimate first captured the winemaker’s heart in December 1994 while Stephen was working with BRL Hardy. Despite visiting hundreds of vineyards across the globe, it was Koomilya that continued to call. Having expressed his wishes to one day own the vineyard should the then owner Don Cant ever look to sell, it was in late 2012 that the opportunity arose for Stephen and Fiona to become the new custodians of the 35 hectare property and so to the chance to regenerate an old Shiraz vineyard amongst an ancient landscape. Staying true to their belief that wine should reflect place, the vineyard has been farmed organically since its purchase, with weeds and feral olives removed by hand to allow native flora such as rare orchids and majestic old gum trees  to reclaim the space. Conserving the landscape is a priority for the Pannell family as they focus on regenerative measures and Biochar – taking the waste from the olive trees, and returning it to the soil as charcoal to improve soil structure, water-holding capacity and increase mycorrhizal fungi, assisting nutrient uptake of the vines. Cultivation is kept to the bare minimum allowing the build up of humus and micro flora, and only recycled water is used for irrigation.  And while these methods take time, the wines produced from this landscape have strength, intensity and glorious grape tannins which wind the palate together, taking you to the heart of the vineyard and its history, which dates back to the late 1850s. \u003cstrong\u003eKoomilya\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e McLaren Vale, South Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon 80%, Shiraz 20%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Steven Pannell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Organic Farming \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screwcap \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14.5% according to the label...13.2 according to Mr Halliday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45786729087125,"sku":"4687","price":74.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Koomilya-Cabernet-Shiraz-2015-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1740647207"},{"product_id":"vasse-felix-single-plot-dhh1-chardonnay-2024","title":"Vasse Felix 'Single Plot - DHH1' Chardonnay 2024","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE WINE:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Single Plot DHH1 limited-release Chardonnay is a site-specific expression that is truly unique.

A region defined by extreme weather, incredibly varied soil structures created from the caving in of the volcano tens of thousands of years ago, and the subsequent lava flows of the volcano that is still active today. Couple this with altitudes between 400-1000metres and a 360-degree site aspect circling the slopes of Mount Etna, this is a thought-provoking region. Tenuta Delle Terre Nere released their first vintage in 2002. Marco is considered by many to be the pioneer of Etna on the world map. He was the driving force behind convincing the Italian wine industry and the Ministry of Agriculture to understand the value of officially demarcating Contrada within their wine producing areas. The classification system used was influenced by the Burgundian model. Marco is a big fan of this system and has integrated the model into his own line-up. The Bianco and Rosso represent more geographically generic wines, though TdTN still grow organically and meticulously at this level. Their ‘cru’ wines depict the Contrada or the village they are from and are further elevated with single vineyards he considers to be at ‘grand cru’ level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sicily\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003e60% Carricante, 25% Catarratto, 10% Grecanico, 5% Minnella\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e  White Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINEMAKER:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marco de Grazia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimal Intervention, Unfined \u0026amp; Unfiltered, Organic Farming,  Vegan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45818517782677,"sku":"4716","price":77.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/P1260052.jpg?v=1778728728"},{"product_id":"stefan-winter-kloppberg-riesling-gg-2019","title":"Stefan Winter 'Kloppberg' Riesling GG 2019","description":"\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE WINE:\u003c\/strong\u003e At an elevation of 220-280m the east facing Kloppberg vineyard is situated in stony, heavy clay\/marl soils.

Originally from Austria, the traditional family was first mentioned in a document in 1469. They have been involved in viticulture for many generations, with Werner Winter planting Sylvaner and Riesling vines as early as 1600. For a long time, however, the estate was a mixed agricultural business until the early 1990s, when it concentrated completely on viticulture. Today, the farm is run by Stefan Winter, who gained practical experience at the Keller Klaus (Rheinhessen) and Bassermann-Jordan (Pfalz) wineries. The vineyards cover 20 hectares of vineyards and are planted with the white wine varieties Riesling, Sylvaner, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay, as well as the red wine variety Pinot Noir. The quality criteria in the vineyards are yield reduction, fully ripe grapes and selective hand harvesting as late as possible. The musts ferment spontaneously for a period of 10 to 30 days, in some cases even for several months, depending on the wine type and flavour.

After a relatively cool fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine spent a minimal time on yeast lees before being bottled early to maintain its freshness. No oak fermentation or maturation.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTyrrell's\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT THE PRODUCER: \u003c\/strong\u003eOne of the most successful family wineries, a humble operation for the first 110 years of its life that has grown out of all recognition over the past 40 years.

Grower-producers: each new generation has been nourished through the tradition and the knowledge of the vine and the wine of those who came before. The House’s history began through the marriage between Yves Pertois and Janine Moriset, the son and daughter of two former winemaking families in the Côte de Blancs. In 1951, the couple decided to create the brand Pertois-Moriset, which continued to develop as their son Dominique and his wife Florence joined the House. Today, The House is managed by their granddaughter Cécile and her husband Vincent. The surface of the vineyard is 20.70 hectares, spread over two terroirs: \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe Côte de Blancs which is around 13.4 hectares, Grand Cru, and Chardonnay predominates by 100% and t\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ehe Coteaux Sézannais which is around 7.30 hectares and is made up of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. \u003cstrong\u003eReal Wines\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCOUNTRY:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eREGION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Champagne\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVARIETAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chardonnay 50%, Pinot Noir 50%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWINE STYLE:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Sparkling Wine \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLASSIFICATION: \u003c\/strong\u003eMinimal Intervention, Organic \/ Biodynamic Farming \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCLOSURE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV%:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSIZE:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Heritage Wine Store \u0026 Bottle Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45955116826773,"sku":"4267","price":144.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0367\/1208\/7597\/files\/Pertois-Moriset-Lassemblage-Champagne-Heritage-Wine-Store-Perth-CBD-Bottleshop.jpg?v=1746090377"}],"url":"https:\/\/theheritageperth.com.au\/collections\/70-150.oembed?page=10","provider":"The Heritage Perth","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
