The Cellar Selection
Every bottle in this collection is chosen for what it brings to the story, not just the shelf. Five ways to complete The Illusionist — tap a pairing below to read its story.
Saicho Jasmine (Sparkling Tea)$377Read moreShow less
Fuding, Fujian Province, China · Alcohol-free · 750ml
Grown at 500m in Fuding, the birthplace of jasmine tea itself, this sparkling tea layers jasmine blossom, lemon peel and pear over apple and lychee — a quietly theatrical, alcohol-free pour for a bouquet built entirely around things not being quite what they first appear.
Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc$362Read moreShow less
Marlborough, New Zealand · 13.5% ABV · 750ml
Founded in 2009 by Kevin Judd — one of the winemakers who first put Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc on the world's map — Greywacke's "Wild" ferments with native yeast for a wine with more shadow and complexity than the variety usually shows. Nothing about it is as straightforward as the label suggests.
Starward Whisky$434Read moreShow less
Victoria, Australia · 40% ABV · 700ml
Matured in ex-wine barrels from Australian wineries rather than imported oak, Starward's Two-Fold builds spiced vanilla and red apple into something distinctly its own — a Silver Medal winner that reads as Australian as anything else in this collection, and the most unexpected pour on this list.
Xanadu Cabernet Sauvignon$357Read moreShow less
Margaret River, Western Australia · 14% ABV · 750ml
Four-time gold medallist across Australia's major wine shows, this Cabernet Sauvignon from Margaret River's Xanadu estate is concentrated, fresh and built for the cellar — proof that the boldest choice on the table can also be the most decorated.
Chandon Brut$322Read moreShow less
Yarra Valley, Victoria · 12.5% ABV · 750ml
Aged over two years on lees and awarded 94 points by Halliday, Chandon's flagship Brut layers apple sorbet, lemon zest and toasted notes into real complexity — the most classic choice in a bouquet built on subverting expectations.
