N/V Rosé Edition 29, Krug Rosé | Sparkling | 12%

One of the wine world’s enduring greats, Krug’s multi-vintage rosé is sumptuous, complex, textured and deep. Its pale pinky-orange hue and fine, persistent mousse are the most immediately alluring characters. Beyond these, the luxurious combination of toasty autolytic flavours and vibrant, plush red fruit concentration make this a hugely impressive and expressive wine. The finish lingers with elegant blood orange and pink grapefruit.The 29ème Édition is a blend of five vintages ( the oldest wine from 2010), with the majority drawn from the 2017.

Ready: 2025 - 2037
N/V Grande Cuvée, Edition 173, Krug Dry | White | Sparkling | 12%

Krug 173 is a celebration of this house’s impeccable style. It is centred around the 2017 vintage, but draws on a blend of 150 wines from 13 different years, the oldest dating back to 2001. Instead of making a consistent wine from year to year, as with a traditional non-vintage, Krug aims to recreate the same emotion with every release. 173 is expressive, rich, and an exceptionally well-crafted Krug. Lemon confit, baked apple tart, passion fruit, tangerine and spice are all beautifully amplified on the palate. There’s a lively thread of acidity weaving through the rich fruit backdrop and a luxurious feeling of racy elegance throughout.

Ready: 2025 - 2035

2025 Woodcutter's Semillon, Torbreck, Barossa Valley Dry | White | Still | 13%

A true expression of the Barossa Valley, this Semillon hails from vineyards over a century old, thriving in a region naturally suited to the grape's medium body and natural acidity. On the nose, it offers vibrant aromas of fresh citrus fruits like lemon and grapefruit pith, harmoniously balanced by the aromatic perfume of citrus blossoms such as lemon myrtle and lime blossom. The palate, firmer and tighter than previous vintages, delivers a tangy, needle-like acidity that cleanses to the finish. Enjoy this wine in its fresh youth or cellar for up to 15 years to uncover notes of brioche and lemon curd pastry.

Ready: 2025 - 2035
2023 The Steading, Torbreck, Barossa Valley Red | Still | 15.5%

Intensely lifted aromas of red cherry, red plum, and redcurrant. Complex notes of five-spice, fennel seed, star anise, and a discernible meaty character add further intrigue. The palate mirrors the aromatic profile, with red fruits cascading over soft, chalky tannins and a dense mouthfeel. Textural savoury notes and fine acidity contribute to the wine's length and balanced finish.

Ready: 2025 - 2035
2024 The Steading Blanc, Torbreck, Barossa Valley White | Still | 13%

A wonderfully fresh and medium-bodied wine, best enjoyed in its youth but with the potential to develop further. It presents fragrant aromas of white flowers, summer stone fruits, and honeydew melon, balanced by hints of beeswax and spices such as lemongrass, kumquat, orange peel, and ginger. The palate delivers a refreshing burst of citrus and tropical fruit notes, enhanced by a clear line of acidity. With age, secondary characteristics of brioche and lime will emerge, leading to a fuller expression of the wine.

Ready: 2025 - 2032
