Vincent Latour Chardonnay 2022
Vincent Latour, a renowned winemaker in Burgundy’s Meursault, draws on a family legacy dating to 1792. Emphasising tradition and innovation, Latour’s wines showcase Meursault’s limestone-rich soils, producing vibrant, mineral-driven Chardonnays. Minimal oak ageing and large barrels preserve the region’s unique terroir, enhancing purity and elegance. Vincent Latour’s Bourgogne Chardonnay offers fresh, vibrant notes of green apple, citrus, and a subtle minerality, reflective of Burgundy's limestone soils. The palate is balanced and elegant, with a gentle hint of nuttiness from restrained oak ageing. Its clean finish and bright acidity make it a refined yet approachable expression of Burgundy’s terroir. His wines show that not all Burgundy needs to be expensive.

The Shaw + Smith M3 Chardonnay 2021 is a stunning example of Australian winemaking, showcasing the unique terroir of the Adelaide Hills. The M3 Vineyard, situated at an elevation of 400 meters, benefits from the cool-climate conditions ideal for producing high-quality Chardonnay. The region's extended ripening period develops complex flavours, while the high diurnal temperature range—warm days and cool nights—at this altitude ensures vibrant acidity. The 2021 M3 Chardonnay displays an expressive bouquet of citrus, white peach, and subtle flint. On the palate, it is elegant and layered, with notes of nectarine, lemon curd, and a hint of almond, balanced by a refreshing acidity and a long, mineral-driven finish. There is a prominent lick of French oak that is balanced out by a long complex finish.
Alheit Vineyards Cartology 2019
Add to Cellar - BUY | See full offer
A favourite amongst our customers, the Cartology is one of the best Chenin Blancs coming out of South Africa. The 2019 Cartology was whole-bunch-pressed and aged in a mix of cement eggs, amphorae, foudres, and old barrels. Its bouquet reveals honeysuckle, white peach, and hints of orange peel. A crisp palate of citrus peel, lime, and ginger finishes elegantly. At €32.95 inc VAT per bottle, this is a steal.
