Magical Mornington Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Magical Mornington Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Australia’s most humble vigneron 🍷🌱✨

It’s rare that we take on new domaines at Terroir Selections; the majority of our producers have been with us for over a decade, if not more. And so it’s incredibly exciting to share that we have a new Australian producer joining our portfolio - Symons Wines from the Mornington Peninsula. 

These wines are the first release for Mike Symons of his own label - having cut his teeth at Petaluma with Brian Croser, he then spent 18 years as chief winemaker for Stonier before leaving in 2022. He didn’t want to name his label ’Symons’, but after trying to register five different names (all already taken) his friends told him to give up. It’s not just his name on the label however - Mike has worked with the vineyard plots he uses for years, and now performs all the viticultural and winemaking duties - from pruning to picking, pressing to barrel topping - and he is determined to honour the unique climate and terroir of the peninsula. 

Given all his hard work in the vineyard, this inaugural release demonstrates a real lightness of touch when it comes to winemaking, making use of older oak, small percentages of whole bunch for the Pinots and time spent on gross lees. The resultant wines are expressive, delicate and complex, culminating in a single vineyard bottling of his “pride and joy”, the Georgica Vineyard.

It’s a joy to present this small yet exceptional collection of Châteaux, carefully curated by our Bordeaux expert @xavierbzt and featuring a selection of beautifully elegant and expressive Left Bank Bordeaux wines. 

Our selection begins with some very smart but well-priced Haut Médoc and culminates with the extraordinary 100-point First Growths Château Margaux and Château Haut-Brion 2019 plus the magnificent Château Léoville Las Cases 1986, hailed as ‘the pinnacle of the 1980s.’

Here’s your chance to get your hands on some beautiful claret at all price points, from some stand-out vintages on a first-come, first-served basis - best not to dawdle…

“Harmony is a great word here. Fantastic drinkin “Harmony is a great word here. Fantastic drinking” 🍷🍇⚡️

Some wonderful words from @mikebennie101 on @tapanappa’s new B&V Vineyard Syrah 2021 for the @winecompanion 

“This is a site not owned by Tapanappa but kindred to the motif of high quality vineyards within Tapanappa’s stable. This is beautiful and distinctly ‘syrah’ in its medium weight, silky tannins, huge perfume and gentle, savoury elements. It smells like red berries, cherry, port jelly, game meat, white pepper and leafy herbal things. The palate similar, juicy in a way, very pure of fruit character and tightening slowly on a ripple of lacy, talc-like tannin profile. A sweetness of spice lingers. Harmony is a great word here. Fantastic drinking.” 95 points - 196 dozen made

A packed house in Adelaide this week @lalouisiane A packed house in Adelaide this week @lalouisiane for the @terreaterrewine masterclass showcasing twenty years of the Crayères Vineyard. It was great to hear @xavierbzt talk so passionately about the site he and Lucy planted and have farmed with such care for two decades. 

We talk so much in Australia about winemakers, and yet so rarely namecheck and celebrate the unique pieces of earth that are at the core of all we do. It was fascinating to see both the evolution and consistency of the wines from the 2014 vintage to the present day - these are carefully crafted releases that are built to age and will bring much joy both now and in the years to come.

Xavier will be repeating this masterclass in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane in the coming weeks so if you’d like to see what it is about the Crayères Vineyard that has kept him so absorbed and inspired, let us know with a DM and we’ll send you the details.
