I hope that you have a wonderful year ahead too. I’m very pleased to offer you the opportunity to secure your share of one of Australia’s greatest collector’s wines, Mount Langi Ghiran ‘Langi’ Shiraz 2006.

The Top 12 Wines of 2011

Hi from Matt

Now that we’ve come to the end of the year, it seems appropriate to reflect on the stand-out wines of 2011. Thinking back, it’s incredible how clearly the greatest wine experiences over 365 days of wine tasting and enjoyment rise to the forefront. Identifying my Top 12 Wines Of 2011 was straightforward, the hard part was securing extra allocations. For example, a mere 85 cases were made of my top New Zealand Pinot, Rippon ‘Tinkers Field’ 2009, so I was only able to secure an additional 24 bottles above the generous allocation we had already received.

While certainly not the cheapest wines I tasted, they were far from the most expensive wines, and in most cases they represent fantastic value. These are the wines that I stocked my personal cellar with this year, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. They are available this week on a strict first-reply basis.
