Description
Recognised as one of the country's leading producers of cool climate wines for the work he's done under the banner of Yabby Lake in Mornington Peninsula, Tom Carson's personal label with his wife Nadège Sune became an overnight success story when they took home James Halliday's Wine of the Year for their 2014 Shiraz Viognier.
Since then, their wines have become as rare as hen's teeth. Their limited single-vineyard offerings are now hunted by collectors and quickly squirrelled away by those on the mailing list.
These are small-batch handcrafted wines that chanel a sense of place. Never available for long, the Serrat wines are some of the finest of the modern Yarra Valley. Just 12 packs available.

2025 Serrat Grenache Blanc
96+ points - "A brilliant green gold. Subtle and beguiling aromas of green apple, freshly sliced white pear and frangipani. The wine's gentle texture is balanced by crunchy acidity. Finishes saline and pithy. A standout to drink now and over the next three to four years." - Philip Rch (Halliday Wine Companion)
2025 Serrat Chardonnay
97 points - "Barrel fermented and matured in two seasoned 600L French oak barrels and two 500L barrels (one new). Brightly coloured. An intense bouquet of stone fruits, citrus, preserved ginger and sea spray. Mouth-filling and beautifully balanced on the palate before finishing saline and long. Will be starting to hit its straps by the time it's released and will continue to blossom over the next five to seven years at least." - Philip Rch (Halliday Wine Companion)
2025 Serrat Pinot Noir
97 points - "25% whole bunches and matured in 500L French oak casks (25% new). A medium-bright crimson ruby. In contrast to the more delicate, fragrant Nenagh Park Pinot, Serrat's home block has produced a wine with aromas of black cherry, blood orange, rosebush and graphite. The palate is medium bodied, concentrated and with chiselled tannins that augur well for anyone who still has a bottle or three in their cellar eight to 10 years from now." - Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)
2025 Serrat Grenache Noir
97 points - "25% whole bunches with 14 days on skins. Matured in one 600L French cask. A bright ruby red. Aromas of bright red fruits, pomegranate, aromatic herbs and fragrant rose petal that emerge the more the wine sits in the glass. The palate is equally complex and energetic, with silky, persistent tannins auguring well for those that still have a bottle or two six to eight years from now. Another lovely cool-fruited, cool-climate grenache from Serrat." - Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)
2025 Serrat Shiraz Viognier
98 points - "5% whole bunches; co-fermented with 5% viognier. Matured in 500L French oak (25% new). Deep purple. Aromas of dark cherry, blackcurrant pastilles, violets and white pepper can all be found in the concentrated, multi-faceted bouquet. It's voluptuous without being heavy on the palate. The flavours go on and on, as do the fine-grained and exceptionally persistent tannins. It's balanced enough to drink now but it will also reward 10 years, or more, in your cellar. Super wine." - Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.
Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.
What that means for you:
- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate
Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.
**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.
If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
