Indigenous Umbrian, Organic additions
We’re excited to announce an expansion into Umbrian wines through Tenuta Alzetura. This winery was established by long-time Alepat family producers, the Cecchi family towards the end of the 1990s, and encapsulates three widely different terroirs quite close together in Umbria, capable of producing distinctly different versions of the indigenous grape of the region, Sagrantino.

Il Vignaiolo – Great Value Wines for the Italian Table
We had some air-freighted samples of these wines out in the trade about a month ago, and the container has finally arrived with our first shipment of this value-driven brand of specially sourced pan-Italian wines. Those who were lucky enough to sample them are already knocking on our door for the Pinot Grigio, which is […]
Introducing Single Contrada Wines From Alta Mora
Etna single-contrada wines from Alta Mora have arrived! We’ve been dying to bring some of these incredibly terroir-expressive wines to Australia, and we think that enough of you are starting to understand Etna wines, and it’s finally time. With some great luck, we’ve snapped up a small allocation of the 2017 vintage wine, both Finale […]
Champagne P. Vallée & Vallepicciola Premiums
When Alessandro Cellai visited earlier this year, he brought with him a selection of Vallepicciola’s ‘Grand Cru’ wines and we fell in love. These next-gen Super Tuscans are the reason Vallepicciola is being touted as “one of the most important wineries in the area” by the likes of Gambero Rosso, while Forbes and Vinous have […]
New: Burgundy X Great Southern Collab Marchand & Burch
In 1990, Jeff Burch of Howard Park crossed paths with Pascal Marchand in the cellars of Domaine Comte Armand in Pommard. A fast friendship quickly formed, with passion for Pinot Noir as its foundation. A decade later they embraced the possibilities of a unique collaboration and began the Marchand & Burch Collection. This pan-global range […]

Joining the Alepat Taylor portfolio from our favourite Western Australian wine family, the Burches of Howard Park, is MadFish. On the face of it, the range is comprised of local wines inspired by the rugged coastline of Australia’s south west and the accompanying laidback lifestyle. Behind the scenes, we can let you know this range […]

Tuscan Pinot Noir and Chardonnay by Vallepicciola
Pievasciata is just 10 kilometres from Siena. It’s picture-book Tuscany, with rolling hills a patchwork of cultivated fields, woods, vineyards and olive groves, punctuated by tall cypress trees and honey-coloured ancient stone villas. The wine towns of Radda and Gaiole in Chianti are just up the road, but it’s in the UGA of Castelnuovo Berdagna. […]
New to Range: Sevenhill Stickies
We visited the Sevenhill Estate earlier this month and, after a couple of very sturdy sessions with Will Shields and team, we came back with some limited lines that they’d been hiding under the counter at cellar door. Joining the incredibly solid line-up of world-class Riesling, Grenache and more, we now have three small-batch fortifieds. […]
