Six Trophies, nine Gold Medals, a listing in James Halliday's Top 100 Wines for 2012 - is there any wonder that there is just a slight degree of excitement around our latest Tahbilk '1927 Vines' Marsanne release that has snuck in ahead of time wit...

Light yellow, its nose is made of hazelnut and pear aromas: a white flower bunch with a beautiful mineral expression... The palate is nicely balanced in this fresh, full-bodied wine. This 2010 vintage brought a rich Crozes-Hermitage with a nice lo...

Brilliant pale yellow colour. Subtle nose of yellow fruits, floral notes (hawthorn), lavender honey with discreet oak overtones. Round and full, with gentle acidity on the palate and a long finale of almond. Elegant wine with a subtle balance : ri...

Such a consistent wine this - especially now that it comes sealed with a screwcap. Citrus fruit, crisp natural acidity and a lightly honeyed texture. Will age too. Iconic (if sometimes forgotten) white wine.

Marsanne is not exactly the first grape you ask for when you hit the pub, but thanks to people like Tamburlaine experimenting with varieties like this, you now get the opportunity to sample them. It’s a perfumed, aromatic style that is famously bl...

Ahh Marsanne, that most forgotten white grape. Did you know that Tahbilk, in Australia's Goulburn Valley, is the largest growers of this capricious grape in the world? It is the Rhone Valley where it most naturally at home though and here Chapouti...

From an absolute Cracka of a vintage in the Canberra region, this mealy, juicy and layered white wine shows the typical honeysuckle varietal richness over a quite generous palate of honeyed fruit. It's a nice mouthful of flavour this one... Watch...

A toasty, honeycomb and marmalade aroma profile gives clues about age, but the dry, tense and brisling freshness of the palate suggests something else altogether. It's lemony and clean, almost steely and drags refreshing appley acidity long in the...

Light bright yellow colour. Some sulfide and 'egg custard' lees-derived aromas. Intense spicy flavours and lively palate; crisp and long and frisky. Rich spicy flavours, exotic and charming, full of character and really delivers a lot of satisfact...

Light to medium yellow colour. Pungent 'lemon drop' aroma, some green herbal elements, not that appealing. The palate is a trifle hollow and vapid. Short and lacking flavour and fruit. Fair average quaffing.

Medium to light, bright yellow colour. 'Funky', strongly reductive and charcuterie-like aromas, not exactly fresh nor clean. The palate is full and weighty, rich and broad, filling the mouth and leaving a little alcohol heat on the aftertaste.

Full yellow colour, but bright. Pleasant if rather overt stone fruit and lightly spiced aromas, even a hint of ginger. The palate is broad and rather oily with a fatness and slight flatness that is a bit ordinary, and the finish falls short. It's ...

Light yellow colour. Fresh, clean, ripe honeydew melon, cashew nut and faintly spicy, herbal aromas. The palate is light and attractively fruited with delicacy and lightness, but also some richness as well. There's zingy acidity and it's lively an...

Medium yellow and bright in colour. Toasty nut and lightly yeasty aromas. Rich palate with masses of fruit and perhaps a tickle of sweetness, the alcohol warming the finish and aftertaste. Lemony acidity. Not a bad wine and amazing value.
