CÔTES DU RHÔNE SPECIAL
$25 per bottle*
We have another cracking special this week seeing as last week's promo cleared out almost immediately.
This week we are running a promotion on the '22 Taparas Cotes-du-Rhone for $25/bottle*- the perfect winter red.
We usually sell this for $35 a bottle at the regular single price, our case price for purchasing 6 bottles would ordinarily bring it down to $29.75/bottle.
OFFER: BUY 6 BOTTLES OF TAPARAS CÔTES DU RHÔNE FOR $25 PER BOTTLE
For $25 a bottle, this is a saving of almost 30%!
Cote-du-Rhone reds are known for their medium body, combination of red and dark fruits with spice and earth in the mix. Comforting and pairs so well with so many dishes, but can even be drunk with just a light antipasto board in winter.
This is only available while stocks last so don't hesitate! Stock up on this one!
*price per bottle when ordering 6 bottles in-store or online

Little Reddie Tasting
Saturday 26th
3pm-6pm
Join us this Saturday as we taste through the fun wines of Little Reddie!
The Little Reddie project came about a bit over 10 years ago after Pat Underwood was exposed to some positive influences that moulded his interest and passion in wine. After numerous vintages for classic local estates such as Bannockburn and Gembrook Hill as well as extensive travels throughout the regions of Europe, Pat has picked up some very important knowledge and experience which he expresses in these small-batch wines sourced from thoughtfully selected Victorian vineyards. These are the wines that we'll be pouring this Saturday:
Little Reddie Mountain Fizz 2024
Little Reddie Riesling 2023
Little Reddie Leanganook Chardonnay 2023
Little Reddie Nebbiolo Refosco 2024
These are some fun and expressive wines that always have a place in our store. Come down and taste them for yourself!

Timo Mayer
Timo Mayer grew up in Germany, where his family have been making wine for over 400 years. He moved to Australia and studied winemaking at Wagga Wagga, before working at De Bortoli and Gembrook in the Yarra Valley and establishing Mayer Wines in 2000.Timo has made a name for himself in the Yarra with his small-batch, single vineyard wines of elegance and charm.
Ideally located in the center of the Yarra Valley, Timo and his wife Rhonda planted a 2.4 hectare vineyard on a slope, which they named Bloody Hill because it was bloody steep!
"We believe that wines are made in the vineyard and therefore try to interfere as little as possible in the natural winemaking process"
All of their wines are unfiltered and unfined so as to capture as much of the soul of the vineyard as possible in the bottle. Their aim is to make wines with a point of difference which the minimal-intervention approach helps to accomplish. Timo's experimentation with 100% whole bunches also sets his apart from his peers as this helps to achieve wines of almost impossible lightness and perfume.
We just ordered in two of his classic Yarra Pinots. The '24 Doktor Mayer' is beautifully sappy and detailed while the '24 'Close Planted' actually sees Timo scale back the whole bunches to 30% for this vintage and ages it in 15% new hogsheads. This is one of Yarra Valley's most sought-after Pinots. The Mayer range always sells out quickly so get in fast if you want to secure your share of the excellent 2024 Pinots!
