Propping all that fruit up is some nice cashew, pulled warm bread and lemon rind. There’s a lot of drive and power here, but it’s never overwhelming.

Deep Woods Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2023

Pours with plenty of green herbs, crunchy tart citrus and some sleek texture that makes for a little slip and glide. So if you are looking for a local but Loire Valley varietal wine, this is the best of both worlds.

You have some ripe citrus and apple blossom to look forward to that pushes through with just a grain of sweetness, but plenty of chalky bitter lemon aromas.

Embrace some ripe, round and bold lime blossoms, papaya and a little candied apple that’ll go perfectly with some saucy, sweet and sour tenders or tofu slices.

Bellarmine Half Dry Riesling 2019

2023’s vintage comes with a little more plush n pithy lemon fruit and a subtle oxidative edge which gives it some more savoury grip. Will make a trip to Jinda Thai, HuTong or your local BYO haunt even better.

Frankland Estate Alter Weg Riesling 2023

Bright, lifted blue fruits, spicy lined tannin and some chewy acidity – they might be some of the words you want to hear if you need a red for a BBQ. The fact that it's all savoury and chalky also means it’ll pair well with slow-roast lamb, blue cheese, and dark chocolate, so yes take it with you to that BBQ.

Chenin’s a great variety to introduce to the Chardonnay drinker in your life who needs a little extra love, just make sure they share.

Corymbia Rocket Vineyard Chenin Blanc 2023

We’re in on that alone, but there’s also a sturdy backbone of compact stone fruit and a nice citrussy-sherbety pull of acidity to keep you energised over the warmer months. We recommend pouring this into a fishbowl-sized wine glass, giving it a little swirl and savouring everything it has to offer. Superb modern Chardonnay that also deserves some space in the cellar.

Nocturne Treeton Sub Region Chardonnay 2022

An absolute beauty of a Chardonnay that sits just on the lighter, softer side in the context of Margaret River style. This will please the gambit of Chardy drinkers with its relaxed feel, a lick of toasty oak sweetness and a delicately creamy feel from some lees stirring. Delicious!

Voyager Estate Coastal Chardonnay 2022

A tight and nervy style of Chardonnay from vines in the dry-grown Highbury Fields and Block 9 vineyards, ranging from 20-35 years old. A fantastic wine from this cool nook of WA and just the drop to transition you to summer sipping.

Forest Hill Highbury Fields Chardonnay 2022

Just one sip and your mouth will be flooded with zingy lime. Delicate floral aromas play second fiddle, with talcum minerality and bright acidity on the palate. There's oodles of fun and energy here. Best enjoyed under the evening sun while you cook up a feast as lively as this wine.

Frankland Estate Riesling 2023

Easy, flowy fruit with a little gooseberry and nettle. It’s got a sound line of acidity and a little dry-to-savoury bite that’ll see it welcoming all the chilli and lemongrass you can top your noodle soup with.

Happs I Series Semillon Sauv Blanc 2023

It feels like sitting at a cosy pub in late Autumn, early Spring and eating an amazing steak with peppercorn sauce while the AC fans warm air and that smell of cloves, leather and a fireplace (even though the fire’s not been lit in years) float through the air.

Frankland Estate Isolation Ridge Syrah 2022

This a phenomenal wine that sings with some air time or rest in your cellar if you can bear to wait. A remarkable plot that translates into beguiling aromatics, mineral essence and laser-like focus.

Vibrant on the nose with plenty of floral and cassis notes and juicy in the glass with some sappy tannin rounding out on the palate. If you're planning a night in you need this wine.

Deep Woods Cabernet Franc 2023

Refreshing and just a little warming, this one’s full of citrus, a tiny piece of fresh-cut pineapple with just enough acidity and some sticky phenolics. Textures are comforting like curling your toes in the sand on the beach while a dear friend tells you something hilarious.
