Red
Clos De La Roilette 2019/20 Fleurie Mg
$104.99A beautifully lifted Cru Beaujolais with fragrant aromatics of red cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate layered with violet, peony, and a subtle earthy spice. The palate is more structured than typical Fleurie, offering a medium- to full-bodied frame with ripe acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a savoury mineral edge driven by its manganese-rich soils. Juicy yet serious, with impressive depth and a long, floral-tinged finish that will reward short to medium term cellaring.
Lorgeril 2024 Voyageur Pinot Noir
$29.99Rich fragrances greet the senses, showcasing notes of red cherries, raspberries, violets, and blackcurrant leaf. The palate is gracefully supple, featuring a hint of spicy pepper, velvety tannins, balanced acidity, and culminating in a prolonged, invigorating finish.
Springfield 2021 Thunderchild
$37.9934% Cabernet Franc | 33% Cabernet Sauvignon | 33% Merlot
This classical blend was created by using the ancient technique of fermenting uncrushed berries with native yeast from the grapes. After aging for one year in French barrels, it was bottled without fining or filtration. A further 12 months of bottle aging took place prior to release.
100% of the profits from this wine are donated to the Die Herberg charity which provides aid to children from broken homes.
Springfield 2022 Whole Berry Cabernet
$48.99Springfield adopts a minimal-intervention approach in making its Whole Berry Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine takes its name, ‘Whole Berry’ from its vinification – with grapes macerated whole, then fermented with natural yeasts, racked, and finally matured in French oak for one year. The wine has a velvety-smooth texture with soft tannins and typical Cabernet Sauvignon notes of red fruits and hints of cedar. A tremendous bottle of Cabernet for the price.
Springfield 2016 Meth Ancienne Cabernet
$89.99Thirty-five years ago, Springfeld cleared a 2.8-hectare triangle of land previously ignored because it was not ‘good’ enough – “too rocky and too steep”.
Cabernet Sauvignon was planted, struggling at first with virtually no soil. The miracle was in the fruit: tiny berries – intense in colour and flavour, this meagre crop was vinified in the traditional way. No crushing of berries, native yeast only, no fining and no filters.
Wine was made with little intervention and kept for two years in new French barriques. After three more years of maturation in bottle, Springfield releases their top wine. It is a piece of their history, their passion and labour. It is their finest expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, and will age effortlessly for another two decades.
