Sparkling Wine Wherever wine is produced around the world, you will find Sparkling. There are many methods and styles of production, from the world-famous Champagnes to the idiosyncratic Pet-Nat styles, there is something with bubbles to suit every taste. Champagne NV Paul Bara Grand Cru Réserve Brut, Bouzy Fr 160 NV Champagne Bonnaire ‘Tradition’ Brut, Cramant FR 145 2015 David Léclapart ‘L’Amateur’ 1er Cru Blanc De Blancs, Montage De Reims FR 315 Other Sparkling Wines 2019 La Prova Prosecco, King Valley VIC 65 NV House of Arras Blanc De Blanc, Bay of Fires TAS 145 Sparkling Rose 2013 Bruno Giacosa Spumante Extra Brut Rosé, Piemonte IT 275 NV Pike & Joyce Pinot Noir Rose, ADL Hills SA 70
Riesling and Friends 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. 2018 Dom Valentine Riesling, Yarra Valley VIC 65 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. 2018 Le Petit Vanguard Riesling, Clare Valley SA 65 2018 Frankland Estate ‘Poison Hill’ Riesling, Frankland River WA 85 2016 M+A Arndorfer ‘ Strasser Weinberger’ Riesling, Kamptal AUT 95 2019 Rock of Wisdom ‘Superfly’ Riesling, Eden Valley SA 55 2019 Eddystone Point Riesling, Bay of Fires TAS 70 2018 Crawford River Riesling, Henty VIC 90 2017 La Violetta ‘Rock Dots’ Riesling Blend, Great Sth WA 76 2018 Bengoetxe Txakoli, Basque ESP 75 Never tried Txakoli (“Cha-ko-lee”)? Not sure why you’d want to deprive your tastebuds of that refreshment, but ok...
2018 Wittmann Riesling Trocken, Reinhessen GER 88 2015 Meyer-Fonné ‘Schoenenbourg’ Riesling Grand-Cru, Alsace FR 210 2012 Kientzler ‘Osterberg’ Riesling GC, Alsace FR 125 2018 Peter Lauer ‘Faß 13 – Saarfeilser’ Grösses Gewachs Riesling, Saar GER 275 “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. 2014 Ansgar Clusseräth Trittenheimer Apotheke Riesling Kabinett, Mosel GER 82 2015 Markus Molitor ‘Ürziger Würzgarten’ Riesling Spätlese, Mosel GER 117 2018 Willow Grüner Veltliner, Adl Hills SA 63 2012 Weingut Jager ‘Ried Achleiten’ Grüner Veltliner Smaragd, Wachau AUT 188
If You Like Sauvignon Blanc The Australian (and NZ) White Wine Industry’s last 20 or so years have been built on the back of Sauvignon Blanc. As an entry into white wine, sure, Savvy B is a fine starting point; but now you’re here, why not see what else is around? 2018 Sherrah Chenin Blanc, Mclaren Vale SA 65 2017 Edi Simic ‘Giacato’ Pinot Grigio, Goriška Brda SLV 60 2019 The Pass Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough NZ 62 2018 Visintini Friulano, Friuli IT 78 2018 Big Easy Radio Fiano/Vermentino, Langhorne Creek SA 68 2018 Serge Dagueneau Pouilly-Fume, Loire Valley FR 94 2017 Domaine Pierre Luneau-Papin ‘Terre De Pierre’ Muscadet, Loire Valley FR 75 2018 Le Marie Malvasia Moscata, Piemonte IT 74 2017 Celler Comunica ‘La Pua’ Garnacha Blanca, Montsant ESP 78 2018 Hughes and Hughes ‘Barrel and Skins’ Sav Blanc, Coal River TAS 70
For Lovers of Texture 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. 2019 Hughes and Hughes Pinot Gris, Coal River TAS 66 2013 Le Rocher Des Violettes ‘La Negrette’ Chenin Blanc, Loire Valley FR 95 2017 Domaine Pichot ‘Clos Berger’ Chenin Blanc Demi-Sec, Loire Valley FR 75 2018 Mader Pinot Blanc, Alsace FR 70 2018 Domaine Ostertag ‘Les Jardines’ Pinot Blanc, Alsace FR 98 2016 Marjan Simcic Ribolla, Goriška Brda SLV 89 2018 Stefano Masera Cortese Di Gavi, Piemonte IT 60 2018 Massena ‘Surly Muse’ Viognier/Marsanne, Barossa SA 58 Unicorn Alert: Marc Sorrel, Tain l’Hermitage, France 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. 2017 Crozes Hermitage Blanc, Mars/Roussanne 185 2016 Hermitage Blanc, Marsanne 495

The Jura Region is idiosyncratic, and the wine industry there tiny, but their quality and influence sends ripples throughout the world. Anne et Jean-Francois Ganevat are true leaders in the region with a dizzying array of cuvees, and their wines, an unwavering delight. 2016 Anne et Jean Francois Ganevat ‘La Flandre’ Chardonnay, Arbois FR 180 ‘La Barraque’ Savagnin, Côtes du Jura FR 270 ‘Petit Courolet’ Savagnin, Arbois FR 257
The Mediterranean Ba sin The Mediterranean basin of southern Europe carries perfect conditions for textural whites; long summers, mild winters, fertile soils and a gentle oceanic influence – the following wines, mostly indigenous varieties, are fantastic examples of a modern push for showcasing this wonderful potential. 2018 Douloufakis ‘Dafnios’ Vidiano, Crete GR 65 2018 Tenuta Di Terre Nere Etna Bianco, Sicily IT 105 2018 Herve Souhaut ‘Romaneaux-Destezet’ Viognier blend, Northern Rhône FR 110 2012 Rene Rostaing Condrieu ‘La Bonnette,’ Northern Rhone FR 225 2017 Alessandro Di Camporeale ‘Vigna Di Mandranova’ Catarratto, Sicily IT 88 2017 Bruno Duchêne ‘Vall Pompo’ Grenache Blanc, Languedoc- Roussillon FR 215 2015 Dominio Del Aguila Albillo Vina Viejas, Ribera Del Duero ESP 265
C .B.A. (Chardonnay, Back Aga in!) Few grape varietals, if any, hold as much esteem globally as Chardonnay. From its birth home in Burgundy, to California, South Africa and our own backyard, this grape has flourished and endeared itself to wine lovers worldwide. 2018 Voyager Estate ‘Girt By Sea’ Chardonnay, Margaret River WA 64 2017 Ngeringa ‘JE’ Chardonnay, ADL Hills SA 72 2018 Stonier ‘Jimjoca’ Chardonnay, Mornington Penn VIC 80 2018 M&J Becker ‘Ablington’ Chardonnay, Hunter Valley NSW 86 2017 Vanguardist ‘V’ Chardonnay, ADL Hills SA 98 2018 Tarrington Vineyards Chardonnay, Tarrington VIC 99 2018 A.

France, Etc 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 two pages, just reach out. Jura 2018 Guillaume Overnoy ‘Charmille’ Chardonnay, Jura FR 135 Chablis 2018 Christophe et Fils Chablis, Burgundy FR 110 2016 Pierrick Laroche ‘Beauroy’ 1er Cru Chablis, Burgundy FR 165 Côte De Nuits 2015 Domaine Collotte Marsannay Blanc, Burgundy FR 95 Côtes De Beaune 2016 Benoit Ente Bourgogne Chardonnay, Burgundy FR 155 2017 Pierre-Yves Colin Morey Bourgogne Haut-Cotes-De- Beaune ‘Au Bout De Monde,’ Burgundy FR 165 2016 Domaine Fabien Coche Bourgogne, Burgundy FR 195 2016 Domaine Fabien Coche ‘Le Limozin’ Meursault, Burgundy FR 298 2016 Lucien Muzard et Fils Chassagne-Montrachet, Burgundy FR 225 2017 Jean – Louis Chavy Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru ‘Les Folatieres,’ Burgundy FR (375ml) 180 2014 Arnaud Ente Meursault, Burgundy FR 675
Not Quite Red 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 Pibarnon Mourvedre Rosé, Bandol FR 122 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. 2018 La Prova Aglianico Rosato, ADL Hills SA 58 2018 Harkham Estate ‘Aziza’s Rose,’ Hunter Valley NSW 65 2018 Figuére ‘Le Saint André’ Rosé, Provence FR 74 2017 Clos Cibonne ‘Caroline’ Rose, Cotes De Provence FR 120 2018 Lunaria ‘Ramoro’ Pinot Grigio, Abruzzo IT 80
Pinot Noir and Friends 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. 2019 Pike and Joyce ‘Rapide’ Pinot Noir ADL Hills SA 55 2018 Priory Ridge Pinot Noir, St Helens TAS 80 2019 Hughes and Hughes ‘Milk Vat’ Pinot Noir, Coal River TAS 90 2017 Onannon ‘Leongatha’ Pinot Noir, Gippsland VIC 115 2017 Whisson Lake ‘White Label’ Pinot Noir, ADL Hills SA 120 2016 Amisfield ‘Breakneck’ Pinot Noir, Central Otago NZ 150 2017 Ngeringa Pinot Noir, ADL Hills SA 94 2018 Koyama Pinot Noir Waipara NZ 79 2018 Novum Pinot Noir, Marlborough NZ 125 2017 Cobaw Ridge Pinot Noir, Macedon VIC 99 2017 Goisot Bourgogne Cotes D’Auxerre, Burgundy FR 110 2016 Domaine Collotte Fixin Rouge, Burgundy FR 125 2018 Farrside by Farr Pinot Noir, Geelong VIC 160 2016 Laurent Roumier Bourgogne Haute Côte De Nuits ‘La Poirelotte,’ Burgundy FR 165 2017 Phillippe Pacalet Pommard, Burgundy FR 330

It’s hard to dispute the 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 tears, and as delicious as you’d expect those tears to be. Act quickly. 2017 Jean Francois Ganevat, Jura FR ‘La Croix Des Batailles’ Gamay 158 ‘J’en Veux Encore!!!’ Gamay/Jura Varietal Blend 165 ‘Poulprix’ Poulsard/Gamay 156

From Rhone to Jumilla , And Those they Inspir ed The Mediterranean basin, from Spain’s east coast and across the south of France, is argu- ably Europe’s hotbed for forward thinking winemakers – sustainable vineyard practices are the norm, and medium bodied, complex and savoury reds are like the region’s mother’s milk.

Vodka 30 mL/60 mL 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.

Mainland Scotland The largest of the Scottish whisky sub-regions, Highland and Speyside whiskies are generally full-bodied, rich and sweet.

Tequila/Mezcal 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.
