  • Jo Landron: Out of this Atmosphère

    Jo Landron: Out of this Atmosphère

    Primed for Spring and Summer enjoyment, binding these new releases is a chiselled clarity and laser-like intensity balanced by the allure of pulpy silkiness and lingering mineral flavour. Crowning the offer is the 2017 vintage of Jo Landron’s tour-de-force La Fief du Breil, a captivating Muscadet of muscly depth and finely wrought precision, which reminds the world of the heights, and aging potential, to which Muscadet can aspire.

    Terroir Sense Fronteres: Earth to Glass Montsant

    2021 is the coolest vintage Peceric has worked in Catalonia, and followers of this grower’s wines can expect intense perfumes backed up by lip-smacking fleshy fruit and vibrant freshness.

    Larmandier-Bernier: A Postcard from Vertus & a new Blanc de Noirs!

    So many of our domaine’s are experiencing generational change. In Champagne alone, Ambroise Agrapart is working alongside his father, Pascal, Héloïse Gautherot is learning the ropes at Vouette et Sorbée, and at Egly-Ouriet, Charles and Clémence have joined their parents, Francis and Annick Egly.

  • Domaine des Roches Neuves: “Wonderful Biodynamic Saumur”

    Domaine des Roches Neuves: “Wonderful Biodynamic Saumur”

    It’s unlikely a coincidence that Saumur’s renaissance generally shares a similar trajectory with the rise of Thierry Germain and Domaine des Roches Neuves. In fact, it’s hard to overestimate this outward-looking grower’s galvanising influence on the notion of place, terroir-focussed farming and measured cellar practices of the region’s younger producers.

    Bondar: Budding Genius—The Rise and Rise of the Rayner Vineyard

    Andre Bondar and Selina Kelly are on a roll. For 10 years, they have worked the sandy soils of their Rayner Vineyard, patiently coaxing this impressive site back to its full potential, effort that is now paying high dividends.

  • Domaine Alphonse Mellot: A Dozen Releases from a Sancerre “genius”

    Domaine Alphonse Mellot: A Dozen Releases from a Sancerre “genius”

    We’ve mentioned before that this producer’s astonishing range of single-vineyard Sancerre goes somewhat further than the domaine’s renowned terroir of La Moussière. Mellot’s sole cuvée from Chavignol—Satellite—already has a devout following in Australia. Perhaps less well-known are its wines from the silex terroirs of Les Romains, La Demoiselle and Les Herses.

  • New Release Garagiste Merricks Pinot Gris and Rosé, Plus the 2021 Terre de Feu and Terre Maritime

    New Release Garagiste Merricks Pinot Gris and Rosé, Plus the 2021 Terre de Feu and Terre Maritime

    2022 represents an outstanding vintage for Garagiste, one this grower believes will rival, if not exceed, the quality of the much-lauded 2021. For several years now, Barney Flanders has been talking about promoting his Stagiaire Pinot Gris and Rosé to the Merricks label, and this small but beautiful, vintage has provided the incentive. From 2021, we can now welcome the flagship Terre de Feu Pinot Noir and Terre Maritime Chardonnay bottlings after a year’s hiatus.

    Let’s cut to the chase.

    Massolino - The First Course: The Knockout 2020 Langhe Nebbiolo, and Friends…

    The wines on Massolino’s undercard have never tasted finer. Nick Stock put it impeccably when, back in 2015, he described the range as “near-perfect”. Since that time, the Massolino team has only made further progress in both their vineyards and cantina. They are harvesting more pristine grapes than ever before, and the move towards ever-gentler winemaking shines through in the wines’ purity and effortless balance.

  • Lambert Wines: Crudo Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    Lambert Wines: Crudo Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    A little background to start. In 2017 Luke Lambert and Rosalind Hall purchased a tract of land in Glenburn, just north of the Yarra Valley near the town of Yea. When complete, the vineyard will be planted exclusively to Nebbiolo, comprising six clones on three different rootstocks at three different densities. Alongside their vines, and in true Tuscan style, the duo also nurture an organic olive grove. For now, five varieties are planted on just one acre.

  • Quealy: Maritime Magic from 2020 and 2021

    Quealy: Maritime Magic from 2020 and 2021

    While much of the historical narrative surrounding Quealy has focused on the winemaking side of matters, the story of its vineyards makes it quite clear that the team are wine growers first and winemakers second—and proper ones at that. These pioneers came to their region, looked closely at its potential, chose sites, and planted varieties that they felt would excel. The farming practice and winemaking has evolved from there.
