Our Wines
Qupe Grenache, Santa Barbara County 2018 Under Bond
A superb expression of Californian Grenache, with aromas of violets, tobacco, raspberries and wet stone.
Ridge Lytton Estate Petite Sirah 2019 Under Bond
Petite Sirah is a close relative to Syrah. Like Syrah, it is a dark-coloured grape that yields wines with floral aromas, deep colour and full, rich tannins. To moderate tannins, we fermented the grapes de-stemmed, as whole berries. Aging in twenty-five percent new oak over sixteen months has softened the wine.
Roda I Rioja Reserva 2017 - DUTY PAID
Made from 90% Tempranillo, 6% Graciano and 4% Garnacha, the Roda I 2017 has fantastic concentration of fruit on the nose with aromatic layers of abundant black plum and blueberries, cloves, black pepper and cinnamon. In the background there is a subtle white flower quality and aromas of moist earth and pleasant minerality.
Meerlust Rubicon 2018 Duty Paid
95/100, Greg Sherwood MW, A Fine Wine Safari. "Meerlust Rubicon is undoubtedly one of South Africa’s greatest wine ambassadors. If you have not tasted it yet, you are indeed missing out on one of the great Bordeaux blends produced in the Cape."
San Polo Brunello di Montalcino 2017 Under Bond
Brunello is a red wine of great power and elegance, the ultimate expression of Sangiovese.

Dubreuil Fontaine Volnay 2021
*All prices in bond* “Plenty of energy on the nose, rather stylish in a darker red fruit, some plums... 88-90 points.” Jasper Morris MW – Inside Burgundy.
Dubreuil Fontaine Pommard 2021
*All prices in bond* 89-9 Points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy. The Dubreuil-Fontaine Pommard vines were slightly less damaged by the frost, especially the sector En Boeuf. A full crimson red colour. There is a weight and generosity of fruit on the nose which the lesser appellations slightly missed.
Dubreuil Fontaine Beaune Montrevenot 1er Cru 2021
*All prices in bond* 89-91 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. A lighter purple colour with quite a refined floral pinot nose. This upper hillside vineyard stays fresh yet has added weight with global warming. The fresh limestone feel is well supported by red fruit, with attractive persistence.
Dubreuil Fontaine Pernand Ile des Vergelesses 2021
*All prices in bond* 90-92 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. A good bright lighter purple crimson. There is a little more depth of fruit on the nose. More precision, fine structure, a return of high-class fruit at the finish. Not dramatic but fine boned and well made. Long fine finish.
Dubreuil Fontaine Aloxe Corton Vercots 2021
*All prices in bond* 88-90 Points Jasper Morris inside Burgundy. Mid red crimson, the nose is altogether more rustic, being served after the Ile de Vergelesses. Rugby man shoulders to this but the tannins are not ugly and the wine finishes well.
Fattoria Le Pupille Poggio Valente 2019 - DUTY PAID
95 points, Monica Larner, the Wine Advocate “This wine always stands out in my mind, and it's worth dedicating a few words as to why.
San Polino Brunello di Montalcino 2018 - IN BOND
