'Classic Wines' Pack | July 2026
A mix of well-known and much-loved classics, but like, really REALLY good.
July's Classic Wines 3-Pack includes:
1. 2019 Pippan Steel ‘Clone 10’ Nebbiolo
Nebbiolo | Alpine Valleys, VIC | Paula Pipan + Radley Steel | Pipan Steel
The site for this winery took years to find, their desire being to reproduce an Aussie version of this regal grape in line with the altitude & aspect of the famed Piemonte region. After 7 years in bottle, this wine has softened beautifully, yet remains as powerful as can be - safe to say, they’ve nailed it.
2. 2025 M&J Becker Tralee Vineyard Chardonnay
Chardonnay | Tumbarumba, NSW | Meagan + James Becker | M+J Becker Wines
I love wines from Tumbarumba, and this one is the goods. It’s buttery and resinous, bees waxy and creamy cashews, breakfast oats and orange blossom - and then there’s a lovely, oily salinity that pulls it all together by its bootstraps. These two can do no wrong, it’s a pleasure to feature them!
3. 2023 Champ des Treilles Bordeaux Blanc
Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc, Muscadelle | Bordeaux, FR | Corinne + Jean-Michel Comme | Corinne + Jean-Michel Comme
A co-ferment of three Bordeaux white varieties which gives this wine a lovely completeness. We get bright honeysuckle, white flowers, musk and dried hay on the nose. This carries through to the palate with a lovely, textural, clean opulence - think apricots in syrup with a bright, salty finish.
