Catalpa Pinot Noir comes from a single vineyard located in Tupungato, Uco Valley in Mendoza – one of the best wine-growing regions in Argentina. It takes its name from an American tree that grows 10 to 12m high and has beautiful, aromatic white flowers. Bright red ruby in colour. Aromas of blueberry and gooseberry jam, with hints of caramel and chocolate. In the mouth, it is elegant and well-balanced, with smooth tannins and intense red fruit notes. Great with soft cheeses, poultry and lamb. The wine has an aging potential of 8 years.

Rich plum and damson fruit, vanilla notes, plus a lovely lift of violet aromas. Drinking beautifully. First class!

A lovely pale salmon pink colour and a fine florality, with hints of wild strawberry and cherry. It shows freshness and clarity, with natural acidity lifting the finish.

Syrah is one of Mauricio Lorca's favourite grape varieties; he loves its fickle nature, the bold influence it can bring to a blend and, most of all, the song it sings flying solo. This delicious Syrah packs a big, spicy, chocolate-infused punch in its youth but after a few years in bottle, as here, it mellows into a most sultry and complex wine, a delight if you fancy an askew take on the northern Rhône.

A propriety blend of Malbec, Cabernet Franc,Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. This is a rich, multi layered wine with lashings of dark berry fruit all integrated with a light touch of oak and very fine tannins. Lovely.

Hints of violets on the nose, red fruits and a touch of cocoa and chocolate leads to a complex and voluptuous palate with firm silky tannins and a long finish. Delightful.

Serious Malbec for those who like their Malbecs BIG. Lush, upfront fruit packed into a sophisticated palate. This oozes class and finesse.Blackberries, fig, mocha and a suggestion of coffee. Fabulous with a rare rib eye steak or drink by itself for maximum impact. Worth every penny.

A rich, hedonistic wine, with emphasis on superb ripeness. An unusual blend of 40% Tempranillo, 40% Malbec, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10 % Touriga National. A real treat, drinking nicely now.

A bit of a monster actually. Highly complex with rounded tannins and an intense fruit core pulsing through every sip.

An intense wine with layers of dark berry fruit flavours. Chalky tannins layered with mulberry, olive and dark plum compote give elegance and finesse.

A 2nd Label sitting nicely with the Art series. This is a tasty, straight forward Shiraz with top quality results from younger vines. Plenty of black fruit and smoky spice make for an enjoyable drinking experience.

Brilliant Shiraz from this impressive winery just outside Canberra.

Classic, elegant Heathcote Shiraz with fine structure, good red fruit and traditional leathery complexity. More restrained than most Australian Shiraz's.

A surprisingly affordable red from this esteemed producer. Smooth and delicious.

A complex, plush yet stately wine, with all the characteristic Cabernet notes of a savoury nature with nuances of blackberries and vanilla with just a hint of hedgerow. A svelte yet seductive palate with depth and length, layers of fruit with a core of fine tannins and balance that will reward long term cellaring.

This really is something special. The wine is a fusion of the slatey/minerally style of the Saar with the ebullience of Australian Riesling. A completely dry wine has both delicacy and richness. Kanta gives elegant, restrained citrus aromas with notes of lemon zest and grapefruit peel plus nuances of acacia honey, chalk and wet slate. The palate is concentrated and tight-knit, very young and steely, giving plenty of green apple and citrus flavours, refreshing acid and a long mineral finish.

Aromas of black berry with notes of fresh rubbed herbs and freshly tilled earth and cocoa. A medium to full weight palate with moderate length. Encompassing lovely earthy flavours lead to a strong savoury tannic finish.

The 2009 Grosset Watervale Riesling has fragrant lemon zest and lime juice aromas, is intense, fine and powerful with rich and concentrated lime citrus flavours and a lingering, dry finish of considerable length. It is a vibrant wine with characteristic juiciness yet has a mid-palate softness which makes it approachable when young.

Immediate nose of beetroot juice poured over graphite shavings sets you up for quite a journey. The palate shares the same dense minerality and graphite texture as the nose with a quiet but growing presence of forest floor and frozen berries. On opening, this fruit thaws to release fresh summer pudding and cream served in a pencil case. Bonkers!
