These Blanc and Rouge burgundies from near Chablis (Saint Bris) are sensational value at $34! The Bersan (father and son) team are now well and truly organic and the wines have a generosity or even an exoticism that makes them stand out. Their cellar is impressive with two levels underground that used to belong to the Knights Templar. Bravo.

Domaine Mee Godard allows us a glimpse of the future of the Beaujolais region at its best. It’s a small Domaine of six hectares of vineyards, mostly located in the Morgon appellation. The uncompromising attitude established by Mee, coupled with very old vines across the estate (60 years of age on average) produces state of the art, profound, complex wines with lots of character.
Mee Godard 2022s have just landed in our warehouse in Collingwood and we are stoked - the queen of Beaujolais has not disappointed!

“I drank a 2015 Brovia Barolo a few days ago with my boys. It (like all Brovia’s) punches well above its weight and the seductive sweet perfume and silky firm structure with succulent flavours it had clearly show why these wines are so sought after!” Randall. The 2019s arriving next week have all scored above 95 inc 99, 98 and 100pts!
This estate now run by Elena Brovia and Alex Sanchez and it’s hard to believe but the wines in recent vintages are even better with more power, perfume and depth. These vines are organic, grown with passion and drive, and are barolo’s made with dedication and mastery, with a sympathetic approach to the fruit and terroir. Bravo

** 2019 BROVIA ARRIVING IN 2 WEEKS **

We were lucky enough to taste the 2019’s with Alex Sanchez last year, who at the time described the vintage as having elegance and power, along with being very pure and elegant - and we definitely agreed!!

Speaking about the 2019 vintage Alex said, “We try to keep the best expression of every single vintage along with the expression of the site and terroir.”

While these wines are drinking beautifully now and have great freshness and intensity, they will continue to evolve and age gracefully over the next 5-10 years.

Gonet-Medeville, an enviable collection of Premier & Grand Cru appellations in the heart of Champagne producing award winning sparkling wine, all of which are rated 92 Points or above by Wine Front and others! At these prices this is outstanding value for money given the quality. With 100% barrel fermentation and aging of the base wines and the generous amount of reserve wines used in the Non Vintages Randall was heard to say “bloody hell these are like the Krug of grower champagnes”. randalls.net.au/collections/gonet-medeville

An icon of Beaujolais, Louis-Claude Desvignes makes some of the classiest examples of single-site Morgon within the Cote du Py! These two wines were recently crowned in The Wine Advocate’s top 5 Beaujolais from 2022. As we’ve already seen at Thivin, 2022 is shaping up to be one of the greatest Beaujolais vintages, producing seductive, ageworthy examples across all the crus.

The 2022 vintage of Chateau Thivin is arriving late June/early July and we couldn’t be more thrilled!
The current custodians of Thivin, are the organic/biodiversity dynamo Sonja; and Claude-Ed, who worked at Chave (Hermitage), Fromm (NZ), Ch Belair (St. Emilion and Geierhof (Kremstal) to name just some estates! Of course, previous generation Evelyne and Claude are still part of the brains’ trust!
It’s no doubt that what they are doing is working, with the 2022 vintage being the best set of wines I have ever tasted from Chateau Thivin!

Now with his son Nathan (who has been working there for 17 years) the team is still crafting ground-breaking wines. This new release of wines is sensational.” - Randall

They’re here! It’s been a good while since we’ve had any Bindi wines on the shelf, as these never last long after release. Hardly an introduction needed for these, but needless to say some of the best Pinot noir in Australia is being produced at this address. Michael Dhillon has released some old-but-new vintages of the high-density Darshan vineyard, planted as tribute to his late father and the man who began this magical Macedon winery. Kostas Rind and Dixon are both absolute steals at $65; they are both so representative of Michael’s winemaking style and of the site (Kostas Rind comes from the original vineyard planted by Darshan in 1988!), yet have remained still very accessibly-priced. The Dhillon and Pyrette label wines continue to shine as Michael branches out and experiments with bought fruit from across Macedon and beyond. Get in before they’re gone!

“Since Ewan Faiveley took over in 2005 the wines have been steadily improving to a point now where they are amazingly great and very consistent in quality. I visited about 5 years ago and saw the improvements in the cellar, and the pervasive feeling of determination was obvious…
For the reds, the grapes are totally destemmed and fermented in open wooden vats for the finer wines and conical stainless-steel tanks for the lesser cuvées. The wines are clean, vibrant and although not as “big” and firm as they used to be, they have impressive density and concentration. The premier and grand cru wines get two-thirds new wood.  The whites are classically made and are right up there with the best.”  - Randall

From the elevated Porongurup sub-region of the Great Western in WA, comes Mount Trio Wines. We’re constantly blown away by the quality for price of these wines, and decided to make the 2018 Mount Trio Cabernet Malbec this week’s special.
This wine scored 90 points from The Wine Front’s Gary Walsh, and has been described by Randall as ‘a ripping cabernet’.
At $14 a bottle (or $149 for 12), you’d be silly not to try it!

Join us on the 28th of May for an evening of delicious food and fantastic wines, all talked through by Gus Pollard - General Manager of Bannockburn Vineyards.
The Bannockburn and Bize connection:
Gus Pollard has visited Bize many times and was a great admirer of the late Patrick Bize. Hugo Bize (Patrick’s son) completed a vintage at Bannockburn last year, switching with Matt Holmes (Bannockburn winemaker) who completed a vintage with Simon Bize the same year.
We’re of course huge fans of both producers, and can’t wait to share an evening at with anyone interested in joining.

If you’re keen to reserve a ticket (or would like more information…including the evening’s menu)

🔔 2023 Bannockburn is here! 🔔

“It’s no great secret that my eldest son Gus works at Bannockburn, so there is a “connection”. I do get hear about the “workings” and some trials and plans; and pains. So I am acutely aware that in recent years there has been a more intense desire for improvement, and great strides in quality increases.

Perhaps I shouldn’t write this, but when Gus was over 2 nights ago I sneakily poured him some 2023 Bannockburn Chardonnay (he didn’t see this), then I put another bottle on the bench (he couldn’t see the label, but the capsule clearly looked French) and I gave him the glass. He picked it as a 1er Cru Meursault!… The Pinot 2023 too, is a beautiful complex wine well worth of your attention.” - Randall

It’s hard to believe it, but these excellent Gevrey Grand Crus can be had for $589 and $449 a bottle! I can’t remember the last time I saw anything ending in …-Chambertin Grand Cru for under $500, let alone an established domaine with six generations of family custodianship and envious holdings only within Gevrey and Chambolle (they don’t even make a Bourgogne). These and other hidden gems of Burgundy have just gone out to our mailing list on pre-arrival, check out the website or email us at [email protected] for more details.
