	NV Airlie Bank Yarra Cuvée Sparkling	$28.00		Add to basket	“80/20% chardonnay/pinot noir. Charmat method, with the NV wine sitting on full lees in tank. 6g/L dosage. A pale, bright green gold. Excellent bang for your buck here. Citrus, honey, some red fruits and just enough freshly baked biscuits to make it interesting. The palate is just dry enough, finishing clean and crisp.” 90 points. Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion 2022
	2024 Punt Road Pinot Gris	$26.00		Add to basket
	2023 Punt Road Pinot Noir	$40.00		Add to basket	Made with 90/10% whole berries/whole bunches and matured in barriques and puncheons (15% new). A light, bright ruby red. Full of cranberries, strawberries, rose petals and spice, this is a little more lifted and perfumed than the previous year's version. Gentle, polished and persistent on the palate, it'll age well, too, over the next two to three years or so. 93 points. Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion April 2024
	2023 Punt Road Pinot Gris	$26.00		Add to basket	At the Punt Road winery in Coldstream, we aim to produce wines that reflect the heritage of our vineyard, and the creative energy of the Yarra Valley. We select parcels of fruit from the Napoleone Vineyard that stand out for freshness and balance. We practice wild fermentation, skin contact and barrel maturation to produce a fresh but savoury pinot gris, with notes of nashi pear and cirrus. Our pinot gris was sourced from two blocks of D1V7 at the Napoleone Vineyard. We harvested earlier than usual, at around 11.9 baume, due to ideal ripening conditions. To extract maximum texture and flavour, we pressed the grapes hard. The wine was naturally fermented in old oak puncheons, with 20% being fermented in tanks to preserve the aroma. Regular stirring of the lees enhanced the wine's complexity and mouthfeel. We bottled the wine early to maintain freshness. - Jarrod Johnson, Punt Road
	2023 Punt Road Chardonnay	$27.00		Add to basket	Apples, citrus fruits and a hint of minerality. Fresh and crisp, with a clean finish. Despite a cooler growing season, we had a mild summer with gradual fruit maturation resulting in complex and elegant flavours in our wine. We harvested from various blocks from the estate, choosing each block based on flavour characteristics and acids for a fresh, fruit-driven chardonnay. The wine was naturally fermented in French oak with regular lees stirring to build texture and complexity.
	2023 Punt Road Barrel Selection Pinot Noir	$54.00		Add to basket
	2023 Punt Road Barrel Selection Chardonnay	$54.00		Add to basket	Pear, citrus and nectarine flavours with oak spice, custard powder and assorted florals. It feels both punchy and compact, the latter in a good way, a tonic-like note lacing the finish.  Everything looks well-aligned here though it does, indeed, need extra time in bottle to relax and extend. 92 points. Campbell Mattinson, The Winefront April 2024
	2023 Airlie Bank Pinot Noir	$28.00		Add to basket	This is spot on. Lifted, lively, varietal and complex, for sure, but mostly just plain delicious. It tastes mostly of undergrowth and black cherries though there are roasted spice notes and some positively-employed reduction. It finishes dry – and more-ish. 92 points. Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front Jan 2024
	2022 Punt Road Shiraz	$32.00		Add to basket	The 2022 is graceful yet powerful with satsuma plums, dark berries, liquorice and spice. There is lovely balance, structure and length.
	2021 Punt Road Cellar Reserve Pinot Noir	$54.00		Add to basket
	2021 Punt Road Block 3 Cabernet Sauvignon	$100.00		Add to basket	Sourced from 1984-planted vines. A natural-yeast, whole-berry ferment with 21 days on skins before being pressed to French oak barriques (25% new). Matured for 18 months before bottling. A deep crimson red. Gorgeous aromatics from the first whiff with its complex array of red and black fruits, violets, cedar and a dusting of black cocoa powder. This is simultaneously concentrated, elegant and textured and while already a pleasure to drink, those perfectly judged, fine-grained tannins will ensure a long life ahead. Fully deserving of its trophy for Best Cabernet Sauvignon at the 2022 Yarra Valley Wine Show. 97 points. Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion Aug 2023
