A little warmer season made the fruit prevalent here, but when it’s blackberry, dark plum and sublime cassis we’ll take it. Of course, it’s balanced too, and there’s some tobacco and pencil shavings in there. A great one for that boujee Bordeaux or Cabernet lover you hold dear.

A Rodda Tête de Cuvée Cabernets 2019

Grapefruit, lemon and a whiff of gun smoke greet you here and lead to moreish nectarine, citrus pith and a lick of oak toast complementing the medium to full-bodied weight we know and love of Beechy.

Willem Kurt Chardonnay 2021

Pitch-perfect Beechworth Chardonnay that expertly marries an intensity of fruit with the drive from the cooler 2021 vintage. A beautifully medium-bodied wine that reflects its deft winemaking and the many years winemaker Tracey Richards has spent honing her craft. Whether it's a dinner party or a wine club, this is sure to impress.

Haldon Estate Chardonnay 2021

Red fruit leads into tart cherry, hints of terracotta earthiness and some wood spice, before serious tannins build toward the finish and steal the show! Give this a decant before dinner and it'll really sing.

Fighting Gully Road Sangiovese 2022

Deliciously fresh and crisp rosé made with Sangiovese and Aglianico from home-grown Beechworth and Alpine Valley fruit. This one's crunchier than previous vintages but still brimming with red and dark cherries on the nose.

Fighting Gully Road Rosé 2022

Here we see a Chardonnay that has been completely barrel fermented in French oak, with around a quarter being new, as well undergoing both malolactic fermentation and extended time on lees. The result is lively, powerful wine, with plenty of length on the palate and a precise finish. If you need a bottle to impress those in the know, this is it.

Sorrenberg Chardonnay 2022

A cooler season meant a slower ripening and a Chardy with a smidge more acidity that feels amazing and leesy. Of course, there’s a lot of ripe, concentrated fruit on the palate, like nectarine, crispy apple and stone fruit skins, before a long finish that includes just a little sourdough breadiness.

A.Rodda Smith's Chardonnay 2022

The Beechworth legends are at it again with Brunnen, a small patch over the track from VS&B main plots that keeps a very cool climate thanks to a natural subterranean water cycling. The result is a lovely Pinot Noir with finesse and balanced flavours, like sweet-spiced rhubarb and strawberry that flow with a healthy dose of silty tannin.

Vignerons Schmölzer and Brown Brunnen Pinot Noir 2021

All shale and slate with layers of white peach, grapefruit and subtle oak playing in the glass. Delicious.

Vignerons Schmölzer and Brown Thornley Chardonnay 2021

Vignerons Schmölzer & Brown Pinot Noir 2022

Stellar Beechworth Riesling that's laden with engaging phenolic structure and gives off a dry, euro-style in the glass. Chalk, citrus, and stone fruit meet a soft, flowing texture, crisp acidity and a length you can savour for a long, long time.

Vignerons Schmölzer & Brown Beechworth Chardonnay 2022

Sorrenberg Gamay 2022

A real value-packed medium to full-bodied blend. Think briar fruits and they'll manifest in your glass alongside a little Autumnal leaf and some fruits of the forest. Of course, there's a healthy amount of tannin which delivers a nice savouriness.

Mulberry Station Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

An ideal year for Beechworth's warmer and drier sites has produced outstanding fruit with excellent tannin development from Traviarti's Rosso and Black Springs Farm vineyards. Made from younger vines, this Nebbiolo is bold yet beautifully approachable. Decant this for maximum drinking pleasure or if you can bear to wait, there's plenty of cellaring potential.

Traviarti Mezzo Nebbiolo 2022

One to cellar, or enjoy right now, or both. There's the full gambit of Red Bordeaux varieties - Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Carménère, and of course some Cabernet Sauvignon. All that leads to a good hit of blackberry, wild cherry and dark fruit. Super wine, whenever you drink it. Want to know when special or limited allocation bottles like this come our way?
