Close match 01
Smalltown Vineyards The Good Luck Club Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Smalltown Vineyards The Good Luck Club Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Smalltown Vineyards · The Whisky Exchange

This bold Australian Cabernet bursts with flavours of blackcurrant, chocolate, and kirsch-soaked plums, offering a smooth, easy-drinking palate with ripe, sweet tannins. Smalltown's Cabernet swaps Pinot's delicate red fruits for deeper blackcurrant and plum richness, but both deliver that silky, approachable texture you love in premium reds. You get the same focus on ripe fruit and integrated tannins rather than extraction, making this an equally food-friendly pour. Where Cabernet differs is in its opulent chocolate and kirsch notes—you'll find this Australian has more generosity and warmth than Cloudy Bay's mineral restraint. It's the wine to choose when you want the same elegant drinkability but with bolder, sweeter fruit character to match richer dishes.

Close match 02
GD Vajra Barbera d'Alba 2025
GD Vajra Barbera d'Alba 2025
GD Vajra · The Whisky Exchange

An organic 100% Barbera with a fruity nose revealing blackberry, blueberry and prune, with violet, herbs and lithe minerality underneath. The palate is bright, with that fruitiness giving way to herbs and graphite on an elegant finish. This organic Barbera mirrors Cloudy Bay's herbal and mineral undercurrent while delivering similar silky elegance through its lithe, refined tannins. You'll recognize that bright acidity and the way dark fruit (blackberry, blueberry) sits alongside dried herbs and graphite—it's the same precision you admire in New Zealand Pinot, just from Piedmont. Try it for its violet perfume and the way herbs and graphite dominate the finish rather than fruit sweetness. This wine shows you how a different grape and region can capture the same philosophical approach to Pinot—delicacy over power, complexity over extraction.

Wildcard pick 03
Les Cretes La Sabla 2021
Les Cretes La Sabla 2021
Les Cretes · The Whisky Exchange

Les Crêtes manages 35 hectares of vineyards in six villages of the Aosta valley in Italy. This 2021-vintage is a blend of local red grape varieties, vinified in stainless steel. The result is a ruby red wine, with a fruity and floral character. Les Crêtes blends local Alpine varieties into something with the silky texture and red-fruit brightness you prize in Cloudy Bay, plus that same herbal and floral complexity. You're getting the elegant mineral backbone and drinkability of premium Pinot, just in a lighter, more ethereal Italian package. This is worth exploring for its stainless-steel purity and how the blend reveals layers of subtle florality alongside red fruit. It's leaner and more delicate than Cloudy Bay, offering you a chance to explore how precision and elegance work across different grape traditions.
