As with many family domaines with deep roots in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, vigneron Alexandre Favier was, by his own account, “raised in the vineyards”: Alexandre’s grandfather, Noël Sabon, is from one of the best known winemaking families in the region. Alexandre himself began his viticultural studies in Orange at the age of fifteen and passed the exams four years later in 2001. A year later (at age twenty!) he took over winemaking duties at the domaine when his father experienced health problems. Today, Domaine Chante Cigale is one of the most important family estates of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. 

This is a traditional house with 40 hectares of red grapes and 5 hectares of white. They have parcels on all of the main soil types of Châteauneuf and the top parcels are each vinified separately. Only native yeasts are employed in the cellar and the hand harvested grapes are double sorted before being destemmed and lightly pressed. The resulting wine is deep red in colour,  showing layers of black fruit and fragrant liquorice spice aromas. Powerful mouth, fleshy and concentrated with dense but very fine grained tannins.  

A wine that will preform well with roasted meats - pigeon, lamb or peking duck. Also a fine match with sheep’s cheese.

Sister’s Run is serious fun and serious wine. The talented, young winemaker Elena Brooks (of Dandelion Vineyards and Heirloom Vineyards fame) wears steel cap work boots every day of course, but carries a pair of high heels in back of the ute - only for emergencies - like last minute invitations to accept trophies at gala wine show dinners and the like!

The Old Testament vineyard is located in the heart of the Coonawarra. The resulting wine produced suggests ripe mulberry and blueberry aromatics with gentle notes of  shaved pencil and menthol on the nose. Soft red berry fruits begin to unfold on the palate, finishing with a spiced-liqueur like quality, carried by velvety tannins and perfectly judged acidity.  

Serve with leg of lamb or other rich dishes - try a country steak and shoe string fries.

Coonawarra is defined by its famous red iron-oxide terra rossa soils and is one of the most distinct terroirs in the wine world. The Old Testament Vineyard is situated at the heart of this remarkable region and produces rich, elegant, complex wines like this one. Ripe, firm and weighty with blueberry, blackberry and oak tones, it's perfect for grilled meats.

Located in the Macau en Medoc region not far from the entry to the Margaux appellation, this Chateau dates back to the 18th century and now covers 22.5 hectares. The soils here are classic Garonne gravels with a clay sub-soil which provides a classic mellow character with relatively smooth tannins and an elegant and fine structure. These wines are remarkably consistent and approachable even in their youth. 

Next-door neighbour to the Grand Cru Classé, Château Cantemerle, Maucamps is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. Coming from an older vintage, this a mature wine yet still very approachable. The nose offers savoury aromas of dried herbs and flower petals along with graphite and soft shades of ripe fruit. The acid on the palate is lively and the tannins are seamlessly integrated. This is a great option if you're looking to try an older vintage without having to wait!

It is a very easy-drinking and enjoyable Primitivo.

This wine pairs perfectly with tomato-based dishes: pasta bolognese, veal parmigiana, pizza... But would also be a great pairing with curries and spicy barbecue dishes too!

The Cortonesi family has been a part of the Montalcino region for decades. Established in the 1970’s and located in one of the most valuable areas in the region their La Mannella farm and vineyards cover 138 acres – 19 of which are devoted to producing a deep and elegant Brunello di Montalcino. The winery works according to tradition while employing modern technologies to enhance the wines made.

Made with grapes hailing from 37-year-old vines and aged in large Slavonian casks, this is a classically crafted wine from an absolutely excellent vintage. The Riserva is made only in the very best vintages and 2016 is no exception. 

The Riserva is a restrained explosion of flavour and intensity and – unlike some Brunello Riservas – worth every penny of its price. Not for everyday drinking, perhaps, but certainly to be poured on those occasions when only the very, very best will do!

Metzer Family Wines was established in 2006. Their aim is to produce wines that are expressive and individual, employing artisanal, non-interventionist principles in the vinification process. The guiding principle driving this process is that the wine-making must always respect the fruit. 
 
The grapes are ethically cultivated, respecting both the environment and human resources. In the cellar, a great emphasis is placed on the minimum handling of fruit, and no mechanical interventions with pumps, filters and reverse osmosis machines are ever used in the process. Fermentation by indigenous yeasts, alive on the grapes and resident in the cellar, lead to long, stable extraction times. Wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered to preserve the "life-forces" from vineyard to bottle.

 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Shiraz. The Cab components hail from three unique vineyard parcels situated in the Steynsrust area of the Helderberg. The blocks are planted on heavily weathered granitic soils and overlook the shores of False Bay. The wine shows classic Cab flavours of ripe plums, herbs and cassis as well as a hint of smoked meat. The wine opens up with darker undertones of cigar-box and spice before a mélange of layered berry fruits. The palate is full bodied, lifted by a fresh acidity and framed by compact yet prominent tannins.

Robust wines like this will do well with grilled meats & firm cheeses.

Primary aromatics abound, calling out fresh, bright and lively berried fruits, red licorice, homemade jelly, and wild flowers. Additional notes of fennel and tar also reveal themselves in subtle, lifted shades. This red wine is an effortless three-step dance, with the pretty fruity notes of the Grenache leading on the palate, giving way to lightly peppery flavours from the Shiraz, all supported by the structure of the Mourvedre. The wine finishes with lingering notes of sweet oak spice.  

This red wine will deal with the most robust foodstuffs you can minister. Serve lightly chilled in warmer weather and as is when things get chillier.

A Manhattan-based sommelier tastes some Washington State wines and is so inspired, he sells everything to move across the country to make his own. That’s the start of the story of Gramercy Cellars, where a close eye on the grapes (picked for almost-peak ripeness, mostly organic), matched with minimalist wine making techniques (no or little new oak, no additives) and a lot of time (extended aging) has created wine that’s considered some of the finest that Washington offers.

A selection from the best barrels at the Gramercy cellars. As with most vintages, it comprises a blend of two incredible old vine Cabernet vineyards - Sagemoor and Phinny Hill. The nose offers an explosive medley of purple & black fruit followed by secondary flavours of purple flowers, coffee, sweet cream & graphite on the palate. The wine was aged in 50% new French oak, which contributes notes of smoke, sweet spices and cedar. The tannins are still firm and grippy but mellow with time - an energetic and powerful wine. 

Serve with grilled meats and vegetables - perfect for steak night!

Vassaltis is the latest addition to Santorini’s long, storied winemaking history. Owner Yannis Valambous’ passion for wine drew him back to the island of Santorini, where he spent many a happy family holiday as a child. In the wake of the 2010 Greek financial crisis, a plan took root in his mind - a plan that was part dream, part folly. Yannis sought to breathe new life into the vineyards he inherited from his father. His focus was to transform the family vineyards into a thoroughly modern, state-of-the-art boutique winery and craft exquisite wines which showcase the quality of Santorini’s grapes.

Made from 100% Assyrtiko, this wine ferments in steel tanks and is then aged in 3rd use 500lt French oak barrels on it lees. It ages for a further seven months in stainless steel tanks and eight months in the bottle before its release. This wine defeats criticism that Assyrtiko shouldn’t be aged in oak to preserve its volcanic characteristics by giving a perfectly balanced wine with great complexity and great ageing potential. Expect this wine to offer tons of the classic citrus zest this grape is known for, tempered by textural richness and notes of sliced almonds. This is a wine that will continue to evolve over time if you can be patient. 

This will be a fabulous accompaniment to cheeses like Gruyère and Provolone or smoked fish.

Ripe white chocolate fruit aromatics begin in a lifted and pleasantly powerful way; some spice bouquet wafts in from deft oak, and then zephyrs of violets, fresh green herbs, star anise, and eucalyptus float by, at once there and then not there. There is a superb and beautifully underplayed supporting cast, however, of round, smooth
tannic grip, of warm vibrant freshly milled black pepper, of stewed plums doused with a shot of pastis and finished with a grating of dark chocolate.

The balance between richness and tannin, between power and an underlying acid tension and edge, make this red wine almost too drinkable. You could serve this with as much ease alongside an eggplant laksa or a barbecued piece of peppered chicken. Don't be afraid to cellar some of this wine too. There's reward ahead.

The nose shows complexity through interesting spice and fynbos aromas and a prominent dark fruit note. On the palate, the wine delights with generous concentration and refined, smooth texture.

Meyer Family Vineyards have been crafting wines in the Okanagan Valley since 2006. Voted one of the top wineries in Canada, they focus on small lot productions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir drawing heavily from Burgundian influences.

This is classy chardonnay from Jak Meyer; whose wines have been turning heads for quite a few years now, especially those of the judges at the WineAlign National Wine Awards. The 2021 McLean Creek bottling from Okanagan Falls is beautifully bright and appealingly spartan, with minimal oak and lees influence in favour of bright citrus, peach and apple blossom flavours. But it's really the palate that shines with its taut acids and laser sharp delineation, not to mention the impressively lingering finish.

Top notch, and top value, classy wine. Pair this Chardonnay with any chicken dish, baked, grilled, or fried. It would also pair nicely with seafood.
