Ox Hardy Grenache 2022
$30.00Jeremy’s score 94/100A deep, vivacious perfume of dark cherries, dark plums, blueberries and rose petals reveals notes of licorice and tar. Long, smooth and evenly paced, it’s generous and fine-grained, with a charming core of cherry, cranberry and blood plum-like fruit steadily becoming richer and more intense down the palate. Deliciously fruited, it’s underpinned by tight, sandpapery tannins. Delicious right now but likely to evolve very well.

Ox Hardy Slate Shiraz 2021
$80.00Jeremy’s score 94/100Bright aromas of cassis, redcurrants, cranberries and dark plums are lifted by scents of five spice and backed by smoky cedar/vanilla oak. It’s fullish to medium in weight, long and gravelly, with a sumptuous core of sour-edged dark berry/plum fruit that steadily builds with aeration, ultimately finishing savoury, with schisty, mineral notes.

Ox Hardy Upper Tintara Vineyard Shiraz 2022
$30.00Jeremy’s score 92/100Spicy, peppery aromas of small black, blue and red berries are lifted by scents of dark flowers and backed by gentle cedar/mocha oak and a faint earthiness. Medium to fullish in weight, it’s long, smooth and evenly ripened, presenting a vibrant core of fruit framed by fine, loose-knit mineral tannins and backed by smoky, chocolatey oak. A totally charming and elegant wine of savoury charm and balance.

Peccavi Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
$75.00Jeremy’s score 97/100A quintessential cabernet whose heady bouquet of cassis, violets, dark cherries and fresh cedar/vanilla oak reveals smoky, meaty undertones and a hint of dark chocolate. Long and evenly paced, with a plush, perfectly ripened expression of classic cabernet flavour, it’s tightly knit with fine-grained chocolatey oak and supported by a firm, gravelly backbone, extending towards a lingering finish of focus and freshness. A long-term classic offering equal parts of power and charm. World class.

Peccavi Chardonnay 2021
$65.00Jeremy’s score 96/100It’s still in the first spring of youth, but this artful, elegant and presently fruit-driven chardonnay will evolve wonderfully over time. It opens an alluring fragrance of white peach, nectarine, melon and green apple skin backed by smoky, creamy vanilla oak and suggestion of mineral. Smooth and silky, its pristine palate drives with style and focus down a fine, powdery spine towards a gentle finish of refreshing acids.

Peccavi No Regrets Cabernet Merlot 2021
$25.00Jeremy’s score 91/100An excellent mid-market Margaret River cabernet blend that punches well above its price. Its vibrant bouquet of dark cherries, cassis, dark plums and cedar/chocolate oak reveals a smoky hint of tobacco and dried herbs. Long and refined, it’s polished and approachable, with refined presence of plump berry-like fruit and oak underpinned by a loose-knit spine. Drink now or later.

Peccavi No Regrets Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2022
$25.00Jeremy’s score 90/100Very stylish and shapely, this is more of a Sancerre-like sauvignon than a WA fruit bomb. A faintly herbal expression of gooseberries, melon and a hint of lychee dextends long, round and flavoursome down a fine, chalky palate, finishing dry and almost savoury with briny notes of oyster shell and mineral.

Peccavi Petit Verdot 2020
$55.00Jeremy’s score 92/100If ever you’ve been curious enough to explore exactly what petit verdot contributes to a Bordeaux blend, here is your opportunity. Lifted by a whiff of violet, it reveals a confiture-like bouquet of mulberries, cassis, dark plums and toasty vanilla oak. Effortless, smooth and creamy, its chocolatey presence of dark berries and cherries is framed by a loose-knit grade of grainy tannin. Like most reds made 100% from this grape, it’s for the short to medium term.

Peccavi Sauvignon Blanc 2020
$45.00Jeremy’s score 95/100Made in a contemporary white Bordeaux style with contributions from both oak and semillon, it’s mouthfilling, tangy and savoury. A scent of guava, gooseberries and lychees backed by smoky suggestions of vanilla oak and creamy yeast-derived nuances reveals a whiff of musk and dried herbs. It’s long, luscious and refined, with a wonderful depth of fruit that drives over a pithy crunchiness towards a lingering finish that hints of brine and minerals. A terrific food wine and certainly a sauvignon blanc for adults!

Peccavi Syrah (Formerly Shiraz) 2022
$55.00Jeremy’s score 94/100While Margaret River doesn’t immediately spring to mind as a region ideally suited to shiraz, Peccavi has a long history of crafting savoury, Rhone-inspired expressions of this variety of genuine class. This vintage reveals a musky perfume of cassis, raspberries and blueberries knit with smoky cedar/vanilla oak and lifted by scents of cinnamon, white pepper, violets and red flowers. Smooth and seamless, its succulent core of translucently clear fruit knits perfectly with a fresh oak interface, finishing with style and lingering flavour.

Peccavi The Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
$150.00Jeremy’s score 96/100Peccavi’s top level cabernet bucks the Australian trend, for it’s based on quality and purity of expression rather than additional ripeness, oak or extract. A heady, essential perfume of cassis, redcurrants, raspberries and dark plums backed by suggestion of dried herbs, minerals and blueberries is deftly supported by gentle cedar/cignarboxyoak. It’s plush and luxuriant but emplashises purity and elegance as it glides down a pliant but chalky spine of grainy tannins, culminating in a lingering finish of remarkable length and balance.

Peccavi The Estate Merlot 2019
$150.00Jeremy’s score 97/100High octane merlot indeed, from Australia’s finest label of this variety. Opulent aromas of dark cherries, plumcake and fresh vanilla oak lifted by heady aromas of red flowers simply shriek their varietal purity, while the sumptuously flavoured, long and polished palate delivers a pristine, international level of merlot expression without ever exceeding a medium to full-bodied framework. Framed by a fine grade of powdery tannins that become more firm and grainy with aeration, it’s gentle and refined, finishing long and pure. Made entirely from the lastest Bordeaux selection of merlot clones.
