John Hughes’ deep love of Riesling shines through once again in this superb Eden Valley release.
The 2025 No. 4 is sourced from selected vineyards across the southern ranges of Eden Valley, including the High Eden subregion of Flaxman Valley and sites near Angaston and Springton. In a year defined by record dry conditions, searing heat, and a challenging frost event, these sites yielded fruit of stunning purity and intensity.
Made in a dry style, this Riesling captures Eden Valley at its finest: elegance, perfume, and slate-like minerality. The bouquet leaps with fresh lime, passionfruit, and rosewater, layered with fennel seed, star anise, and a hint of rain on warm slate. The palate is finely structured, bursting with lime juice and elderflower, drawn long by the vintage’s hallmark crisp acidity.
Another deadset bargain for any Riesling lover from John & Belinda Hughes.
97 points & No. 9 in the James Suckling Top 100 Australian Wines of 2025
"The palate is sharp and focused... The finish is both electric and precise. Excellent."
- Ryan Montgomery (James Suckling)
Patrick Sullivan is a name synonymous with exceptional Australian Chardonnay.
Here's a top-value way to sample his sensational stylings with this variety, with this very reasonably-priced entry-level Pat Sullivan wine!
This, only the third-ever release, continues to honour the volcanic soils of Southern Australia with a wine that strikes a lovely balance between richness, well-defined fruit, and distinctive soil-derived minerality.
The vineyards are nestled along Australia's unique limestone coast. This region is the world's third-largest volcanic plain, harbouring approximately 400 dormant volcanoes. Who knew?!
Pat's deep-rooted connection to this area, where he spent much of his childhood, fills him with tremendous enthusiasm as he offers this great modern representation of Australian Chardonnay.
94 points & Top 100 Wines of 2024
"Patrick Sullivan is one of the country’s most thoughtful winemakers; beneath his mop of unruly hair ticks a brain obsessed with how volcanic-derived soils can shape a wine. He works mostly across Gippsland, Victoria, but for this wine he heads across the South Australian border to Mt Gambier. The result is a fine, sculpted chardonnay, its gentle curves laced with a sparkling minerality."
- Nick Ryan (The Australian)

"It feels familiar, a wine from the past, the affordable cellar dweller for the flavourtown chardonnay drinkers, and it’s great for that."
- Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)
Andre Bondar is one of the best makers of Rose in Australia. There. We said it.
And the 2025 is absolutely on point yet again. A blend of Grenache (90%), Cinsault (5%), and Mataro (5%), this rosé is all about freshness, delicacy, and drinkability, perfectly capturing the breezy charm of their coastal home.
It's pale, dry, and full of aromas of red berries, watermelon, and a hint of citrus. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with juicy fruit flavours balanced by a clean, savoury finish.
Our go-to Aussie Rose and unbeatable value!
"In any year, this is a sure candidate for Australia’s top rosé – for both quality and value ... A benchmark mod-Oz rosé.”
– Young Gun Of Wine, 2023.
"This is benchmark stuff, further cementing Bondar's rosé as a reference point."
- Marcus Ellis, Halliday Wine Companion
"Always one of the country's finest rosés"
- Ned Goodwin MW, Halliday Wine Companion
This is the wine that kicked it all off for Ricky Evans, and after 13 vintages, it just keeps getting better. A true snapshot of the Tamar Valley, TMV Pinot blends fruit from Ricky’s own vineyards with a couple of trusted growers, delivering a cracking Pinot that’s both effortless and detailed.
Think bright red berries—raspberry, wild strawberry, a bit of cranberry—wrapped up in fine, chalky tannins with a flicker of spice. There’s just enough whole bunch (10%) to add a little lift, and a stint in old barriques (only 10% new) keeps everything fresh, juicy, and dangerously easy to drink.
Pure Tassie Pinot pleasure—made to be opened, enjoyed, and probably finished faster than you planned. Stocks are always tight, so don’t sit on your hands.
The Aphelion The Confluence Grenache is a brilliant showcase of Rob Mack's mastery of McLaren Vale Grenache. Sourced predominantly from the prestigious Blewitt Springs subregion, this vibrant and expressive wine seamlessly blends whole berry and whole bunch ferments to create a Grenache that is complex yet fantastically drinkable.
In the glass, it’s a stunning, bright red with purple hues. Aromatics of raspberry, cinnamon spice, and red liquorice leap out, with a hint of herbal intrigue. On the palate, you’ll find wild strawberry, Satsuma plum, and fine sandalwood, balanced by soft, fine tannins that give the wine a beautiful length and poise. Despite its intensity, the Confluence remains light on its feet—packed with flavour but never heavy.
Perfect for drinking now but capable of evolving through to 2035, this is a wine that works equally well on its own or paired with food. Whether you’re enjoying a casual evening on the deck or indulging in a special meal, the 2023 Confluence Grenache is a versatile, crowd-pleasing bottle that reflects the best, brightest side of of McLaren Vale Grenache.

"This is all charm, but with a distinctly sophisticated elegance of delivery, with all the expected pops of red fruit – raspberry, red cherry, redcurrant, some pomegranate – conveyed with vibrancy but never confection, florals, white pepper, musk and a hint of orange peel accenting. The tannins are fine, naturally wrought, food friendly and perfectly synched with the medium fruit weight. Just lovely."
- Marcus Ellis (Halliday Wine Companion)

"Strawberry, raspberry, a fair amount of spice, a little twist of orange peel and amaro herbs too. It’s medium-bodied, offers bright cranberry crunch to acidity, and the quality of the tannin is something of a highlight – kind of like pumice stone – then it’s all juicy red fruit with a cinch of bitterness and a savoury flourish closing out a finish of fine length. It’s really good. It has energy, and it drinks very well too."
- Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)
Few winemakers know Shiraz Viognier like Bryan Martin. He spent years at Clonakilla helping shape Australia’s most famous example of the style, and for nearly two decades he’s been honing his own version under the Ravensworth label. Today, his estate-grown Shiraz Viognier is one of Canberra’s most talked-about wines.
The 2023 vintage shows why. It’s cool-climate Shiraz at its most captivating: floral, spicy and red-fruited, lifted by just a whisper of Viognier. That small addition isn’t about perfume alone – Bryan uses it to shape the palate, giving the wine a silky, seamless feel that’s become a hallmark of Ravensworth.
This is a wine that feels effortlessly together even in youth, with layers of cherry, spice and dried flowers already meshing beautifully. The structure is fine and long, suggesting a decade in the cellar will only add complexity, though it’s dangerously drinkable now with lamb or anything fragrant and spiced.
Production is small – only 700 dozen made – and demand is high. If you’re serious about Shiraz Viognier, this belongs in your collection.

"Layers and layers of texture and interest. It's light on its feet and an excellent choice for the Australian summer."
