  2. Ogier Le Temps Est Venu Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2022
    Ogier Le Temps Est Venu Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2022
    Always a lovely wine and the 2022 has an extra level of freshness and crunchy snap. A blend of grenache blanc, roussanne and a good dollop of viognier. Stone fruits, some quartz mineral notes that thread through the mid palate and sprinkle white pepper to finish. Some slippery textural elements provide length and its cut nicely by a streak crunch acid.

  4. Turkey Flat Marsanne Roussanne 2022
    Turkey Flat Marsanne Roussanne 2022

    It’s grippy, it’s richly flavoured, and just when you think it’s going to stop – the flavours continue on. This saw a proportion of new oak and it shows, but the overall profile remains elegant and then there’s that length. Citrus, stonefruit, cracked wheat and smoky bacon characters do a delicious job here, so too the honeysuckle notes. Give it another 12 months in bottle and it will be better again. CAMPBELL MATTINSON, The Wine Front

    It’s a funky, struck match affair, honey and smoky stuff, pear and lemon zest, a juicy apricot sort of flavour, plenty of grip and texture, wheaty (yes it is), with a chalky lemon zest finish of good length. Rugged. Full of personality. It’s excellent. GARY WALSH

    SPECIAL VALUE - A Rhône-inspired white blend of marsanne and roussanne from the Turkey Flat vineyards in Bethany and Stone Well; whole-bunch pressed with some skin contact and a portion aged in new oak. Pale straw with some intriguing struck flint and cordite notes layered above the juicy white peach, lemon and apple fruit base. Hints of nougat, toasted almonds, crème fraîche, white flowers and ginger complete the picture. Dry with a lovely textural component, a minerally acid line and excellent clarity on the finish. Great complex, zesty drinking. JAMES HALLIDAY’S WINE COMPANION

    With a light yellow hue, it has a very smoky bouquet combining barrel and reductive aromas with spices and a hint of smoked chicken, the palate multi-layered and entertaining, medium bodied and soft-but-dry in its balance. A lovely wine with a really engaging set of flavours, and a long and satisfying follow-through HUON HOOKE

    The bold and the beautiful, plenty to love here with lots going on and it delivers on it all in this beautiful package with punchy fruit, great length, plenty of nuance and detail, a long, fruit laden and citrus cut finish that serves to engage those old taste buds and stir them to life. Stimulating! It’s one of those wines that leaves you feeling refreshed, it isn’t thirst slacking, or quenching, as bright, clear and upbeat as it is, because you immediately go back for a second glass and then the bottle is gone and it’s a work day tomorrow and you have to talk to people about wine… you know what I mean? Very hard to stop drinking, which makes it dangerous mid week. Fortunately Danger is my middle name, Roscoe Anthony Danger Halligan-Rose… not sure why my mum thought that was appropriate.

    This is so damn good it’s hard to keep a straight face while writing this review. It’s not a wine to take too seriously, but its seriously banging. ROSCOE

  8. Domaine La Florane Visan Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2022
    Domaine La Florane Visan Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2022
    Grenache Blanc with Marsanne, Roussanne, Burboulenc, Clairette and Viognier.  Wild fermented and raised in concrete vats, aged briefly on fine lees.
     
    Aromatics and flavours of apricot, peach and honeysuckle, with grapefruit/citrus fruit, rind and pith.  There's a real zip to this release, great energy humming here.  The stony mineral and cleansing acidity give a pleasing textural edge and palate definition.  It's clichéd to be going 'best release yet', but this cuvée is on song here.
