Australia
Australian wine is easily among the fastest growing categories in our inventory. While many equate Aussie wines with “value,” there are more than a few extremely rare and pricey options, which never fail to earn the highest ratings from wine publications and critics throughout the world. It is true that the greatest strides in Australian winemaking have come in the last 30 years or so, but commercial viticulture began as early as the 1820s and has developed uninterrupted ever since. Check our our selections from the land down under...

93 points James Halliday: "It's matured in all-French oak and while it's mostly cabernet and merlot there's a small portion of petit verdot in the mix. It's medium weight and fluid with blackcurrant, milk chocolate and gravel notes slipping amiably through. It has shape and texture but integrity of fruit is key here. No mucking about; this is a good cabernet to drink. (CM)" (06/2021) 93 points James Suckling: "The spearmint and fresh-basil notes come through clearly, to buttress the currant and berry character on the palate. Medium to full body. Round,...

93 points James Halliday: "Each batch destemmed and pressed forthwith to tank to settle, with one exception fermented with cultured yeast, the remainder fermented in new French oak, 2 months in oak. Complex and vibrant with citrus uppermost on the long palate." (06/2021) 92 points Wine Enthusiast: "A style unique to Margaret River, this SBS is both vibrant and restrained, allowing both varieties to shine. Citrusy and pungent, it shows waxy lemon, white pepper and wet wool alongside green veg notes like bell pepper and snap peas. It's really about the m...

96 points James Halliday: "Hand picked, whole-bunch pressed to 500L French puncheons, wild-yeast fermented, matured for 10 months on lees. The Upper Yarra, on red volcanic soils, produces taut wines of extreme length. Here citrus, white stone fruit and green apple are bolstered by natural acidity. Winemaker David Bicknell makes the difficult seem easy." (08/2023) 96 points James Suckling: "Aromas of baked lemon, flint, hazelnut and lime zest. Medium-bodied with bright and driving acidity. The palate is energetic and fruity with an array of smoked citru...

97 points James Halliday: "All P58 clone from the 1980 and 1982 plantings. Whole-bunch pressed to 500L puncheons (about 20% new). Another captivating Oakridge Chardonnay, this has scents of ripe stone fruits, a little yellow plum even and a hint of oyster shell. There's wonderful depth and intensity on the mid-palate and the wine finishes taut, saline and long. While you'll no doubt enjoy drinking this now, it’s worth giving this some time to fully come together and open up. Made with the same attention to detail as Oakridge's flagship 864 Chardonnay, th...

97 points James Halliday: "Whole berry/bunch open fermentation for 3 weeks; matured for 10 months in French oak. The Willowlake vineyard is one of the first to venture to the Upper Yarra. Balance is the key word for this beautiful pinot, the red cherry/berry fragrance is mirrored by the palate, where delicate but clear savoury notes of spice are woven through the red fruit palate and aftertaste." (11/2022) 96 points Bob Campbell: "Medium-deep red-purple colour; intense and bright spice aromas, nutty/smoky barrel and foresty fruit aromas combine to give...

When our first batch of Four Pillars Faultline Gin ran out, we were all devastated. Initially conceived as a one-off project, the FP Faultline turned out to be one of our most popular gins ever, both among staff and our customers. After months of trying to find a substitute, we conceded that the first go-around was just too good and needed to be remade to the exact same specs. The initial batch was put together by David Driscoll, K&L Buyer Emeritus, wanting to build on the clean citrus notes and the creamy texture that are the calling cards of Four Pilla...

96 points James Halliday: "Old vines; hand picked; élevage in old oak. Bright, clear crimson; a perfumed, red-fruited, spiced bouquet lights the way, the palate making off with this opening by adding high-quality tannins. Whether or not a shotgun marriage, it comes together in glistening unison. *Gold*" (01/2022) 93 points James Suckling: "Fresh aromas of raspberries, blueberries and plums lead to a very fleshy palate that rolls through with plenty of sweet-fruit flavor. So drinkable now. Screw cap." (10/2021)
96 points Bob Campbell: "Medium-deep red-purple colour with a smoked-meat/charcuterie bouquet, a note of dried florals too. A complex bouquet which is intense and alluring. This translates to the palate, where it is sweet-fruited and charming, with gorgeous flavour and mouth-feel. The fruit-sweet core is succulent, the flow beautifully even and lingering. A lovely pinot noir. (Huon Hooke, The Real Review)" (12/2022) 96 points James Halliday: "A blend of MV6, C777 and C115 clones from the 2008-planted Henk vineyard at Woori Yallock. Approximately 20% wh...

Kelp, green olive, sage and currant are saturated, fulsome and expansive across the palate. Fine length due to a poised tannic kit, savvy oak handling and a stream of salty freshness. A bargain."

This is appealing for its complexity and harmonious finish. (MW)" (12/2021) 90 points Wine Enthusiast: "Clare Valley's comparatively cool climate is on show in ...
92 points Vinous: "The 2021 Grenache is a lighter and more ethereal expression and shows pretty clove and cranberry aromas with a backbone of earthy tones. Fresh acidity provides a vibrant start before building in texture and weight through to a lingering finish. Stalky tannins add a gentle bite. It feels not quite together and needs a couple of years to settle. (AH) " (02/2023) 91 points James Suckling: "Aromas of rosemary and thyme mix with baked cherries and blackberries.

Good each-way shiraz, to drink young or preferably keep a little while. Has in grunt what it lacks in elegance." (07/2023)

There's depth of fruit and intensity here, but also a sense of sapid juiciness with ripe, fine, sandy chocolatey tannins adding ample support. The wine fans out with a plume of spiced plum fruits on the finish. Wonderful value. *Silver* (DB)" (03/2022) 92 points James Suckling: "Aromas of ...

There is medium intensity in the mouth, backed by fine, savoury, positive tannins. The aftertaste is long and leaves a drying sensation. Excellent value.

Blackberry, dark plum,, bracken and spice introduce a warm-hearted red with impressive regional earth and medium-bodied credentials set against a frame of fine tannins. Boasts cabernet's firm structure and a generous addition of woodsy spice and oak." (08/2022)

95 points James Halliday: "A long-time champion of marsanne, Tahbilk celebrates both its youthful energy and its aged beauty across a range of wines. Here we see the latter in all of its near-ageless allure, maintaining the honeysuckle, citrus, appley brightness of its youth while starting to build on its earlier promise of beeswax smooth texture with a developing gentle toastiness. Another stunning museum release. It's hard to believe it's six years old." (05/2023)

99 points James Halliday: "Penfolds nailed the great vintage, making a wine that is perfect in every way. The blend of 97% shiraz and 3% cabernet sauvignon comes from the Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Clare Valley and Magill Estate in Adelaide, in that order, and as usual spent 18 months in new American hogsheads. Its detail is superb, with light and shade allowing blackberry and plum fruit pride of place, but there's also flashes of spice and licorice. It's as mouthwatering with the last taste as the first, and 7.3g/l of acidity leaves the mouth fresh. ...

93 points James Halliday: "Crushed and destemmed fruit, fermented with cultured yeast and matured 18 months in French (5–10% new) and American oak. A warm, dry, compressed season that in many ways is just made for the shiraz grape. The '19 boasts a bright spring in its step, that hopefully continues for some time. A bold, sunny wine with a core of dense choc-berry fruit flavours and scents, briar, bush mint, earth, toast and graphite. Supple and warm-hearted with a lasting generosity, you can easily miss the tannic tension at play." (08/2021)

93 points James Suckling: "Clove, star anise, mace, blueberry and smoked charcuterie kick off proceedings. The tannins roll across the mouth with a signature of peppery refinement, nicely astringent. The whole-bunch element, used to good effect. This is a classy, fuller expression of shiraz, with all efforts made to rein in any excess. The result is mid-weighted of feel and immensely savory. A long, jittery finish." (09/2023) K&L Notes: Erin Larkin for Wine Advocate on the producer's style: "This is exciting. There is a seamless integration of tannin a...

This is a three-dimensional wine, the bouquet and palate both attesting to its varietal roots, and taking the opportunity offered by the great vintage, the herbal nuances on the finish adding charisma to the equation."

Hits some rare notes in mid-palate texture and length – so early in its life, too. Citrus blossom, honeysuckle, green almond, Meyer lemon and pear aromas lead into a wine with all the ingredients for developing complexity. The varietal trademarks are lining up nicely, led by lemon-bright acidity, spring floral and citrus flavours with potential plus for further ageing. Exactly what you want and expect from a mak...

100 points Wine Advocate: "Very deep garnet-purple in color the 2008 Grange reveals a truly decadent nose with tons of spices, fruit cake and black & blue fruit compote notes along with nuances of chocolate and potpourri. The full and rich, multi-layered palate has a little oak still showing, it is going through a little bit of a structural stand-out stage, but it doesn't detract on the long and complex finish. It still needs a good few years to develop, though this very opulent, expressive Grange shows the very best of this vintage and the vineyards it ...

Nervy lemon and grapefruit flavours linger. A fine wine with a bright future. This is great value.

In 2019, despite the wine's name, it's actually merlot-led. 52/45/1.5/1.5% merlot/cabernet sauvignon/malbec/cabernet franc. ‘Merlot was great in 2019,' says winemaker Matt Byrne. An 80/20% shiraz/cabernet sauvignon blend, from estate vineyards. Matured 18 months in seasoned French oak barrels. Medium, vibrant purple.

In this blessed vintage, the fruit arrived when the winemakers wanted it, here it is juicy acidity that carries the flag."

This full-weighted expression delivers the low pH-infused grittiness of the vintage. The aromas are sumptuous, encompassing kirsch, peony, lilac, juniper and anise. The time on skins has been extended in recent years, as have the picking windows, necessitating separate ferments. Just a little candied rose water, detracting.

99 points Jeb Dunnuck: "The finest vintage I've ever tasted, surpassing even the incredible 2016 (time will tell, anyways), the 2018 Shiraz St. Henri is, as always, a multi-region blend yet is mostly Barossa Shiraz, and the aging is always in larger oak vats. (Don't tell anyone, but I often prefer St. Henri to Grange.) The 2018 is absolutely brilliant, revealing a saturated purple hue to go with a smorgasbord-like array of ripe blueberries, mulberries, iron, lavender, sage, and ground pepper. It has an almost bloody, salty character and is full-bodied, m...

95 points James Halliday: "Sports the prettiest musk-pink colour, but don't assume this is a particularly sweet or lightweight rosé. It's anything but. Fresh, crunchy acidity provides the basis for a display of striking fruit intensity: cherry, cranberry, acacia, pepper, spice. A light spray of juicy sweet fruit brings added succulence and length. Seriously good rosé, whatever the occasion." (11/2022) 92 points Wine Advocate: "The 2022 Grenache Mourvédre Rosé Is lovely. It’s delicious every year.

This is the usual approach, focusing on the purity and length of the grapefruit-driven fruit and lowering the cost of production. This might have resulted in some reductive funk, but it's as clean as a whistle." (08/2023)

95 points James Halliday: "1927 Vines is fine example of the amazing versatility of the marsanne grape. It is probably its purest expression, capturing its essential beauty early and then allowing bottle age to bring complexity. From 2016 we see lovely florals emerging on the bouquet, showing signature honeysuckle, grilled grapefruit and almond development. Belies its age with a youthful energy and drive across the palate, lively acidity matched by a soft texture. By no means at its peak." (05/2022)

96 points Wine Advocate: "The 2021 The Struie is 100% Shiraz from both the Barossa (57%) and the Eden Valley (43%), and it matured for 18 months in French oak (20% new). The proportion of Eden Valley inclusion is usually around 25%, but in 2019, it was down to 10% due to the very low yields. So, this 2021 Struie is blue-fruited on the nose, with blueberry, licorice, black tea, crushed rocks, summer raspberry, layers of campfire embers and clove. It might be that in many of the tasting notes from 2021, that the wines outperform previous vintages. This is ...
