Glaetzer Amon Ra Shiraz
$84.99
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.

Vincent Gaudry Sancerre
$64.99
Vincent Gaudry uses fruit from all three soils types in Sancerre--chalk, silex and clay-limestone marl--to make Le Tournebride, a rarirty for the region, and a boon to this wine. The chalky soils contribute perfumy grapefruit and lime notes, while the silex adds a smoky mineral dimension and the clay-limestone marls give the wine weight and structure. The result: A wonderfully complete representation of all that Sancerre has to offer--fruit, mineral and substance.
Establishment PilsGnar 4pk
$19.29
This German-stlye pilsner is true to form, with light bready malts that borderline on crackery. Floral and leafy hops are all over the nose and palate, and lead into a crisp and dry finish.
Carlos Reynolds Red
$30.99
Color: Carmim Aroma: fresh, full of black fruit. Taste: good concentration, both elegant and silky. Fresh mature fruit, and focused on plum and black cherry. The soft tannins provide excellent balance to the wine. Good length in elegant finish.
We recommend consuming a glass with an everyday meal at home. It is a natural and healthy product that should be drunk as part of an enjoyable daily meal. Relatively young and fresh ages well in which case it should be decanted. To be served at 16 /18 ºC
Carlisle Radiant Ridge Mourvedre
$76.99
100% Mourvèdre. Harvested in late October. 80% destemmed and 20% whole-cluster. 14% new and 86% neutral French oak.
A new wine from Carlisle! While the Mourvèdre harvests are typically blended with Syrah to create their "The Integral" blend, the 2018 vintage of Mourvèdre demanded a single-varietal release. This is a ferocious, mysterious Mourvèdre with shocking presence and more than a nod to Southern French examples.
This wine is tremendously cellar-worthy. Enjoy 2025 through 2040.
Blindman Five of Diamonds Pilsner 4pack
$18.69
A crisp pils that's about as light as can be and crushable as you want. Lightly citrusy with crackery, white bready malts and a mellow finish.
Dagueneau Chardonnay Les Clous
$37.99
.This domaine has expanded considerably since the time Serge Dagueneau took on his handful of hectares. Today, there are 23 hectares of vines, of which 18 hectares are dedicated to Sauvignon Blanc in the Pouilly-Fumé appellation. Many of the vines are ancient, with some up to one hundred years old. Most of these vines are planted on Kimmeridgian marl, one of the classic terroirs of the Pouilly-Fumé and Pouilly-sur-Loire appellations. He is the nephew of the late Didier Dagueneau, a legend in the wine world. The L'Odyssee is their flagship wine, a stunning example of Pouilly-Fume.
"Fresh and round first impression with notes of citrus fruit and litchi. Good length and intensity on the palate with some aromas of undergrowth. Chardonnay takes us back to our Burgundian culture. This variety does extremely well in the clayey-chalky soil of St Lay. The grapes are hand harvested and pressed immediately. The wine is temptingly round, supple and fruity with a lovely golden colour. It would be a good match with salmon tartare, other fish dishes, veal with sauce or lamb." - Serge Dagueneau
