JJ Hahn

The Hahn’s are considered Barossa royalty - almost national treasures. Maria and Johann Christian Hahn arrived in the Barossa Valley in 1845 and their land is still in Hahn family hands, six generations on. Current custodians, Jacqui and James Hahn still live in the original homestead constructed from 1846 to 1848. Yields are kept low and there are two pickings, five days apart, which gives a greater range of complexity in the final wine.

La Gauloise

La Gauloise dates back to 1783, when the liquorist Sieur Requier discovered the recipe. In the cellars, the Master Liquorist skillfully blends angelica, St John’s wort, saffron, cardamom, genepiand and other ingredients, followed by a double distillation. To ensure finesse and roundness are combined with power, fine brandy and sugar syrup are added. Finally, La Gauloise reveals its exceptional aromatic palate after slow aging.

Tasca d’Almerita

The vineyards of Mozia are utterly unique. Once a Phoenician colony, this island in Marsala’s Stagnone lagoon, is an extraordinary archeological site. Here, under the Sicilia DOC, the destinies of two families—Tasca d’Almerita from Palermo and Whitaker from England—came together in this coastal ecosystem to make wine where vineyards have long played a part. Of the island’s 40 hectares, seven are planted with Grillo. In the oldest part of the vineyard, vines are still cultivated ad alberello (bush-trained), an ancient training method only found ...

“2021: a real “winemakers” vintage – Harvest News from the Société Civile du Château Lafleur

EN PRIMEUR

Every spring after the year’s harvest, merchants and trade organisations arrange a tasting of barrel samples of wines that are often only six to eight months old. During this time, thousands of wine critics, journalists and wine merchants from all over the world travel to Bordeaux, where they are presented with the unfinished wines.
