Lime and lime zest with snow pea tendrils and grapefruit. A delightful texture and just the perfect amount of acidity to allow the fruit to make its powerful point without taking over the show. A delightful Savvy which should improve for a few years yet.

This is high altitude, cool climate Pinot made in the Burgundian tradition. It is estate grown, hand harvested. whole bunch fermented and foot stomped, then spends 6 months in new French oak. It's superb already and will unleash layers of complexity as it ages. Our average score on the tasting panel was nudging 96, which is pretty unusual.

Made From: Clones 114, 115 and 777 grown at high altitude

Aromas and Flavours: Spice, mulberries, cherries, raspberries, plenty of zing

Drink if you like: Mornington or Yarra Pinot

Food: Duck and/or mushroom based dishes are perfect here

A delicious Sem which can be drunk now or cellared for a decade. Green apple, citrus, oxalis grass, smoky notes, seaweed and a generous mouthfeel all recommend a second glass. Generous, refined, textural and loaded with fruit. Learn More

Medium bodied, red fruited and spicy. Lots of complexity here with raspberry, blueberry, musk, aniseed and white pepper at play. Tannins are fine and silken. Lovely! Learn More

Dark cocoa, red plum, tobacco, blackberries. Plenty of acid and a long finish with fine tannins. We don't make much Malbec here in Oz, less than Argentina, who grow about 3/4 of the world's Malbec, less than France, the US, and South Africa. A lot of what we do make gets blended away to good effect with Cabernet. It's amazing how often a straight Cab is improved with the addition of Malbec. It's a pity, because Malbec is an exceptional straight varietal, and the Briar Ridge is a great example.

Made From: Estate grown Malbec

Aromas and Flavours: Blackberry, tobacco, cocoa, red plums and more

Drink if you like: Bleasdale Malbec

Food: Malbec loves pork and intense cheese. Argentinians consider it the ultimate steak wine.

Dark fruits and chocolate and a burst of rosewater on the nose. Black and blue fruits and cedar in the mouth. Tannis are fine and supple, making this particularly enjoyable now - but don't be afraid to chuck this away for a decade either. Learn More

Rich, complex, fragrant and textural, this is a ripper. It has spent time in old French oak with batonage, aka lees stirred, employed to accentuate the wonderfully velvety fruit. If you like rich Viognier or buttery Chardonnay, this is worth a look.

Made From: 100% Viognier

Aromas and Flavours: Orange blossom, peach, creaminess, honeysuckle, spice

Drink if you like: Buttery Chardonnay, Viognier

Food: Viognier, like Chardy, is low acid so it's best to avoid acidic fruit. Chicken Tagine or poached Salmon would work well

Powerful black and blue fruits, sage smoke, meat, lilly pilly, mint and rose petal. Black cherry, spice, coffee and dark chocolate. A complex beast and exceptional value for money. Learn More

Outstanding! We gave it 97 on our tasting panel, and shortly thereafter, this picked up a trophy at the Hunter Boutique Wine Show. This is a medium bodied, aromatic Rhone style, with purple and blue fruits, smoky notes, redcurrant panna cotta, mulberry, black pepper, and violets. Loads of spice here, purple flowers and more. Gorgeous, and captivating, both aromatically and on the palate. Learn More
