Riesling and Friends
Never tried Txakoli (“Cha-ko-lee”)? Not sure why you’d want to
deprive your tastebuds of that refreshment, but ok...
A family winery on the banks of the Danube, the Alzingers work
with the utmost respect for their environment and a minimal
intervention philosophy in Vineyard and Cellar. This ‘Mühlpoint’
Federspiel is a bracing playoff between classic Grüner spicyness
and the regional minerality for which Wachau is known.
Undoubtably one of the best Australian winemakers you’ve never
heard of, Victoria’s Dom Valentine comes with a heavy hitting
resume and Riesling is definitely a strong suit – well worth
a lash.
Few beverages in the world can hold the esteem that the supremely
aromatic Riesling has globally, and at all the spectrum’s ends – in
Germany and Austria, the wines that boast a purity and sweetness carried
by a lick of structural acid and texture find themselves the most prized,
where few Australian wine drinkers have grown without knowing the
lazer-dry styles of the Clare.

“Grösses Gewachs” is a German Riesling producer’s version of a
Grand Cru; in the case of Florian Lauer, his usual terroir-driven
style is amplified here. The Saarfeilser exemplifies all this; some-
where between dry and off dry, but tremendous structure, power
and balance.

sure, Savvy B is a fine starting point; but now you’re here, why not see
what else is around?

From inauspicious beginnings after taking over in 1982, Marc Sorrel has
paid dues and risen the Rhone ranks, and now finds himself at the peak of
quality, traditionally styled Hermitage. Tiny quantities.
The ways that white wine develops texture are myriad: oak, time spent on
lees, fermentation techniques or indeed the varietal character from each
grape will contribute to a broad mouth-feel and a long, satisfying finish.

Chardonnay’s spiritual home is arguably Chablis and the Côtes De Beaune
in central France. Steeped in history and home to some of the finest
winemakers in the world, there is little question as to why these wines are
amongst the most prized Whites in existence. As you can probably tell, we
don’t mind a Burgundy; if you want any further help deciphering the next

The world has a lot to thank Sandi Skerk for; without him, the

know them now. This wine is a great way to get to know the OG.
Whilst producing white wine with a high degree of skin contact is not a
new process, a surge in new wave talent that invest themselves heavily
in minimal intervention and experimental winemaking processes are
exploring the limits and producing ‘Orange’ wines of exceptional quality
and intrigue.

Funky fresh and bone dry from a natural icon, just around the
corner from Provence.
Fully organic, fruit driven Rosé from a blend of grapes surely to
be a future Australian Success Story
Few regions in the world, if any, rival Bandol in the south
of France for production of Rosé wine. Typically produced
from Mourvedre, these are the benchmark worldwide for dry,
herbaceous Rosés.
Rosé wine has been the quiet achiever in the wine world for a great many
years. From the dry, herbaceous provincial styles to the more fruit driven
New World expressions, the ‘pink drink’ has and will always have its
place in the world’s restaurants and bars.

2015 Rudolf Furst ‘Tradition’ Spätburgunder, Baden GER 135
Prophet’s Rock winemaker Paul Pujol is the veteran of many
vintages at the famed Burgundy Estate Comte Georges De
Vogue, so his approach in Central Otago is different to his
neighbours. Low extraction, supple and integrated. Five Star.
As every Queen has her King, so Chardonnay has Pinot Noir. A wine that
is as versatile as the places that make it, Pinot may be a trick to grow, but
if handled correctly rewards drinkers with a depth and complexity few
wines can match.

Cuvée, ‘En Le Rue De Vergy’ comes from a vineyard that sits just
above the Grand Cru ‘Clos De Tart’ and performs well outside of

If you said that Jean Francois Ganevat was the most famous living

legendary status of this guy, who makes a dizzying amount of different
cuvees, all to exacting standards of Biodynamics, and what we could easily
call ‘Natural’ Winemaking. – Ganevat Wines are as rare as unicorn’s

It’s no secret that Australians like to drink big wines. From rich soils and

styles that has made Australian wine famous. As the Australian industry
matures, the exploration of newer wine growing regions, and the obser-
vance of modern thinking towards wine making has ensured that what
our wines make up in weight is not at the expense of complexity and
finesse.

but decent cross section of a few of these techniques. Whether it’s stopping
the ferment with a distilled brandy, slightly drying the grapes on straw or
just choosing grapes with a touch of the Noble Rot the finest sweet wines
the world over can be a perfect end to any meal.

Vodka is a pretty relaxed category of spirit. Made from anything that
contains starch and distilled in pretty much any way; as long as you can
blast it up to high proof relatively quickly, you can produce vodka. High
quality vodka, on the other hand, takes a little more craftsmanship.

Tequila and Mezcal are both a part of one big, happy family – made in
Mexico from members of the Agave family, that’s pretty much where the
similarities end. Tequila, from the Blue Weber Agave, speaks of sweetness
and soft fruit, whereas Mezcal, made from any member of the Agave
family, presents mineral, faint smoke and earth.

Brandy refers to any spirit made from a fruit – be it grapes, apples, pears,
even apricot – as a result brandies are expressive, not only of their base,
but their terroir, and their ageing processes.
