Medium Wine List

2020 was a low cropping, intensely fruited vintage - fairly consistently warm and foliage was retained until harvest; qualities which have led to an excellent vintage! This is a powerful wine with plenty of chalky tannins, so double decant a few hours before getting stuck into this one, and when you do, consider pairing with a lump of quality protein - will work beautifully with this wine's tannin profile. Red fruits here, dried cherries, tobacco, spice, hints of balsamic, oregano, coffee and more. This is complex, powerful and long, delightful now with a decant and one you can cellar for more than a decade. Learn More

Morellino di Scansano, means Sangiovese from Scansano, Scansano being a hilly coastal reqion of Maremma in Tuscany which is renowned for its dry climate, volcanic soil and maritime climate. This is a 'first selection' Scansano, with exceptional fruit fermented and aged in oak. There's Cherry, tobacco, tomato and leather here, with excellent fruit concentration and finish which is replete with chalky tannins. Learn More

Rosso di Montalcino is Sangiovese from Montalcino, often declassified Brunello. With its fruit intensity and 12 months ageing in oak, this is very much in the baby Brunello mould. It’s a big brooding wine with black and sour cherries, spice and excellent intensity and length. Drink anytime over the next decade. Learn More

2021 is one of the finest Chianti vintages in living memory, rated at 98/100 by Wine Spectator Magazine. This is a superb organic Chianti intended for consumption over the next 5-10 years. It has the expected fruit intensity and tannin grip of a young Chianti so decant and enjoy this with protein if you are drinking in the next 5 years. Red fruits and leather here, dried cherry, salami, espresso and a waft or two of high quality tobacco. Lovely! Learn More

Chardonnay sourced from a high altitude vineyard in the Adelaide Hills which is whole bunch pressed with fruit from a single Willunga Vineyard. Elegance and length aplenty here, with lemon, grapefruit, nectarine and melon all on the go. Refined, yet powerful with both fine aromaticity, notes of cedary French oak and a good palate weight happening. Learn More

Only 200 doz were made of this exceptional Vermentino which picked up a gold and top gold medal at both the Royal Adelaide and Barossa Wine Shows! Offers citrus and pear aromatics and a textural palate redolent of nashi pear, apples, citrus wildflowers and a hint of marzipan. Superb. Learn More

Bleasdale has been growing Cab Franc for over a quarter of a century, but this is the first time it's been released as a standalone wine, and it is lovely. Medium bodied and spiced, with rose petal, red fruit and musk aromatics and flavours. Linear and crunchy, but with a generosity of flavour. Learn More

All about the red fruits and plum here, in a fluffy, lush, cuddly, generous and bubbly setting. There’s Christmas cakey spices and a hint of quince paste to boot. Lip smackingly delicious. Learn More

A brilliant, medium bodied, single vineyard temp with minimal oak influence. A wonderful red fruit and chocolate palate, complexity coming from the mix of red cherries, chocolate, supportive acidity and fine fruit tannins.

Bleasdale's Wellington Road GSM blend has only been in existence for a handful of years, but it draws on quality older vines from the estate as well as key growers. Offering vivid aromatics, it builds around a core of noticeable acidity and fine but plentiful tannins - a skeleton that promises longevity. That said, it's lovely already, with floral notes, jubey fruit, spice and more. Learn More

Lush, rich and complex with custard apple, butter, grilled nuts, nectarine, herbs and more, all carousing in this lively, intense an engaging beauty. Just one barrel made. We got 72 bottles. If you are reading this, it is still available, but not for long! Learn More

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
