Description

The Eugenio Bustos sub-region of the Uco Valley in Mendoza sits at high altitude in the foothills of the Andes, between approximately 900 and 1,100 metres above sea level. At this elevation, the daily temperature variation between hot desert days and cold mountain nights is extreme, a factor that concentrates fruit flavours while preserving the natural acidity and freshness that define the best high-altitude Malbec.

The region takes its name from the town of Eugenio Bustos in San Carlos, and the sandy loam soils over bedrock here drain freely and force the vines to work hard for water, producing naturally lower yields and more intensely flavoured fruit. Malbec from this sub-region is known for its floral aromatics, ripe plum and dark berry character, and the kind of racy acidity that adds energy and length to the palate. The wine is aged in French and American oak for eight months before bottling, adding layers of mocha, vanilla and coconut complexity to the naturally vibrant fruit. For those who love Malbec, this is a genuinely satisfying everyday expression of the variety at its most characterful.

Customer photo review of Zalto Universal Glass Twin Pack

These glasses bring a lightweight, sophisticated touch to any dining experience. We received them as a gift and have been absolutely delighted—so much so that we wouldn’t choose anything else now. They’ve truly elevated our table setting.

Customer photo review of Vignoble Boudon 'Les Vielles Garennes' Bordeaux 2018

We absolutely love this wine! After one run through the decanter, it becomes a beautifully smooth red. We also purchased the decanter from The Wine Traveller and couldn’t be happier. Quick dispatch and delivery. The organic reds taste incredibly fresh and clean—no chemical aftertaste at all and no hangover. We're hooked. Thanks, Greg!

Vignoble Boudon 'Les Vielles Garennes' Bordeaux 2018

I'm very impressed with the ease of ordering and speedy delivery with my first order. Oh yeah....and the wine is delicious!

I was at first hesitant about a sparkling wine in a screw cap bottle but was very pleasantly surprised by both the quality of the wine and the cap. The screw cap does a better job of keeping the bubbles fresh than any champagne stopper I have ever used. This wine is our favourite drop for those everyday bubbles where you don't want to open an expensive French champagne like Verve or Taittinger (she who must be obeyed favourites).

Tamburlaine High & Dry Premium Cuvée

My wife loves her French bubbles and rates this one favourably alongside her French favourites but with a considerably more affordable price tag!

Tamburlaine High & Dry Premium Cuvée

I’ve had to give up my French champagne for health reasons and so I’ve tested many sparkling ‘wines’. I first sampled this at the famous Lakehouse Daylesford and have never looked back. It looks like champagne and is the closest thing you’ll get without the alcohol and the French touch. Give it a go!

Kolonne Null Cuvée Blanc No.1 Zero Alcohol Sparkling 375mL

The wine is Magnificant. Subtle, flavoursome and very drinkable. My favourite red wine ever.

Chevalier De Bayard Aude IGP

It made me sad when my doctor said to give up alcohol. I love my bubbles. At a lunch at the Lakehouse I saw this non- alcoholic sparkling and gave it a go. Game changer. Looked the same and was very well received by my palate! The best part no adverse reactions and no hangover. So…..I had to buy some for those special celebrations when I didn’t want to feel left out. A little on the expensive side but worth it.

We are normally Shiraz drinkers, but I would describe this Grenache as a warmer-climate Pinot Noir with more body, making it incredibly approachable, food-friendly, and a fantastic alternative to heavier reds. It is a highly aromatic, medium-bodied red wine with flavours reminiscent of red cherry, raspberry, and strawberry. Very nice indeed.

Tscharke A Thing of Beauty Grenache

The best prosecco (in our opinion) and one we have bought lots of times.

See Saw Balance Prosecco

From the first time you had suggested this we have loved it.

We were amazed how quickly you managed to package our order and get it Aus Post. Unfortunately, Aus Post are a business that do not care about quality and it took 2 weeks to get it to us. This is not out of the ordinary and I feel Aus Post are hurting businesses and this might impact on whether we decide to purchase from you guys again. However, you guys were great!

Nomads Gardens Pinot Blanc

I tasted this wine at Marmelo restaurant in Melbourne. I loved it. I have been systematically tasting zero alcohol sparkling wines for some months and this was the best one I had ever tasted. I ordered 6 bottles, and everyone I share it with is VERY impressed.

Kolonne Null Cuvée Blanc No.1 Zero Alcohol Sparkling 375mL

My son bought this prosecco at the Sutherland Saturday markets, and we all agree it's the best prosecco we've had. I re-ordered directly through The Wine Traveller as they weren't there a couple of weeks ago, and delivery was super-fast plus 10% off my first order! Very happy, and will be purchasing again once we get through the latest box.

Delivery speed can improve further but the wines are lovely. Also will be good if photo as well as description refers to correct year of production

Brockenchack Jack Harrison Shiraz

We love this wine especially with some age on it. Deep rich palate that is beautifully smooth after breathing a few hours.
