Description
Recognised as one of the country's leading producers of cool climate wines for the work he's done under the banner of Yabby Lake in Mornington Peninsula, Tom Carson's personal label with his wife Nadège Sune became an overnight success story when they took home James Halliday's Wine of the Year for their 2014 Shiraz Viognier.
Since then, their wines have become as rare as hen's teeth. Their limited single-vineyard offerings are now hunted by collectors and quickly squirrelled away by those on the mailing list.
These are small-batch handcrafted wines that chanel a sense of place. Never available for long, the Serrat wines are some of the finest of the modern Yarra Valley.

2023 Serrat Chardonnay
97 points - "Mendoza clone, whole-bunch pressed, natural-yeast fermented and matured in two seasoned 600L French oak barrels and one new puncheon. A bright green gold. Extremely complex with its bouquet of perfectly ripened white nectarine, pear, lemon verbena, iodine and a hint of nutmeg. Powerful and structured, this has real verve and presence on the palate. Really long. Really good." - Philip Rch (Halliday Wine Companion)
2023 Serrat Pinot Noir
98 points - "A bright, medium crimson. Brooding and complex with its bouquet of wild strawberries, dark cherries, spices, rosebush and a little potpourri. Seamlessly textured and gently saline, the tannins are ripe, velvety and very persistent. Everything is in total harmony, and while it wouldn't be a crime to drink this now, its best is yet to come." - Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)
2023 Serrat Grenache Noir
96 points - "A light, very bright crimson. This is another uber-aromatic and seductive grenache from Serrat. Aromas of freshly picked red cherries, redcurrants, a soupçon of lavender and fragrant spices can all be found here. The palate is balanced and fresh, with those typically fine yet chalky Serrat tannins giving the wine structure and length." - Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)
2023 Serrat Shiraz Viognier
98 points - "With its aromas of red and black fruits, sandalwood, black pepper, freshly hung meat and crushed violets, this is another highly perfumed and seductive Serrat shiraz viognier. This builds steadily through the mid-palate, culminating with very fine, silky and persistent tannins on the impressively long finish. A beautifully put together and balanced wine." - Philip Rich (Halliday Wine Companion)

Ordering
We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.
Some things to keep in mind:
- Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
- The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
- We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
- We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
- It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.
- It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.
We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.
At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!
No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.
We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.
To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you.
If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.
If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
