Along the steep, narrow valley that traces the northern Rhône, the appellations of Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu and Saint-Joseph take their place among the great wines of France, and Domaine Faury is one of the region’s most artisanal producers. When Philippe Faury took over the domaine in 1979, the family was selling wine, peaches and cherries, and the bulk of their clientele was local. Over the years, Philippe expanded their holdings to over eleven hectares. The Saint-Jospeph sees 35 to 70% of whole clusters macerate in open concrete vats for 3 weeks. Gravity barreling occurs in large containers (foudres and demi-muids) for an aging period of 15 to 18 months. The wine is vinified with natural yeast and carried out by gravity, without fining or filtration.

The palate opens with black forest berries, embellished by notes of menthol and black licorice and black pepper. It can age for a decade or more, a stunning example of Saint-Joseph.

Best's Wines was established in 1866 by the pioneering Henry Best then sold to his neighbour Frederick Thomson in 1920. It's run by the Thomson family in the best tradition! Brooding spice and clove characters on the nose with red fruits nestled amongst subtle complexities and a touch of restrained oak. Great depth of flavor. Deep, rich with a long finish showing fine tannins.

Amon-Ra Shiraz is an iconic wine that epitomises Ben Glaetzer’s passion to create wines that are full flavoured, multi layered and intense but still elegant, stylish and finely balanced. The nose has essence of black cherry, dark plums and spice. On the palate look for mouth coating richness with restraint and admirable poise. Multi layered flavours of dark chocolate and dried spice with bright fruits and great palate length. This is a wine that will develop beautifully with long term cellaring over decades.
In Egyptian mythology, Amon-Ra is considered to be the king of all gods. The temple of Amon-Ra was believed to be the first temple to ever plant a monoculture vineyard to produce wine for the citizens of the temple.
The eye on front of the label is the all-seeing eye of Horus or wedjat ("whole one") - a powerful Egyptian symbol of protection. It is represented as a figure with six parts, corresponding to what Egyptians regarded as the six senses; touch, taste, hearing, sight, smell and thought.
Ben created Amon-Ra Shiraz to appeal to all these six senses.
