Wild Duck Creek Springflat Shiraz 2016

Region: VIC- Heathcote
Sustainably-made

"Big, heady, dark and powerful red wine. Scents of clove, mint, cocoa powder, ripe plums. Supple, soft, decadent in the palate, molten tannins that pucker to close, a heady, rich, charismatic wash of chewy, dark plummy fruit, sweetness, ground nuts and...

Penfolds RWT 2015

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "Glass-staining dense purple colour, with terrific saturation. It's very rich and ripe, concentrated and profound to sniff, but surprisingly less oaky than anticipated. The wine is massive and dense, full-bodied and powerful, tightly-packed and...

Best's Thomson Family Shiraz 2014

Region: VIC- Great Western

  "A deeply flavoured and exotically spiced shiraz whose peppery, floral bouquet of pristine blackcurrants, mulberries and dark plums has a musky, cedary background and a hint of earthiness. Medium to full-bodied, it’s long and luscious,...

Saltram No. 1 Shiraz 2012

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "Over the years a flag bearer for Saltram in vintages where its power and intensity are matched by its complexity, 2012 being such a vintage. The colour is that of a 1yo, and the complex array of black fruits are welded to the oak and tannins."...

Peter Lehmann Stonewell Shiraz 2008

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

"Deep garnet-black colored, the 2008 Stonewell Shiraz presents relatively youthful notes of warm black plums, blackcurrant cordial and crushed blueberries over licorice, chocolate box and yeast extract. Full bodied, ripe, rich and expressive in the...

Clarendon Hills Astralis Shiraz 2014

Region: SA- Clarendon

Region: SA- Coonawarra

Wynns Black Label Shiraz 2016

Region: SA- Coonawarra
Sustainably-made

   "A fascinating wine that is as much Coonawarra genetics, stamped across its sinuous tannins, as it is cool climate medium-bodied shiraz of blueberry, mulberry, lilac scents and sash of peppery acidity." - James...

Grant Burge Filsell Shiraz 2014

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  “This release is very much in the established Filsell style, but it’s a better rendition of it than we’ve seen from recent vintages. This is rich, plush, dark and hearty, all of which you’d expect from Filsell, but...

Best's Great Western Bin 0 Shiraz 2014

Region: VIC- Great Western

  "Best's' touchstones of history are part of what makes them one of my favourite Victorian wine producers (of a pretty long list of course). Something special though. As with this wine. Pours with that satisfying purply hue amongst the black and...

Yeringberg Shiraz 2014 Museum Release

  "A museum release at 10 years old. Vibrant purple red colour. Aromatically intense, some gamey secondary characters but also still has amazing dense, plummy  blue fruit and white pepper. Textually it is soft and rounded, with an intensity of...

Best's Great Western Bin 0 Shiraz 2013

Region: VIC- Great Western

  "Depth, texture, balance and long sinewy length. Not much more need be said it's a cracking release with a fabulous future ahead of it. Cherries, boysenberries, plums, suggestions of fresh garden mint and slips of coffee. There's a seriousness to...

Best's Thomson Family Shiraz 2012

Region: VIC- Great Western

  "The sheer vibrancy and purity of fruit is nothing short of a marvel from these grand, dry grown 1867 vines planted by Henry Best himself. The 2012 is just the 13th release, precociously backward on release, promising a monumental future, yet so...
