Clarendon Hills Astralis Shiraz 2013

Region: SA- Clarendon

  "This has very complex aromas of exotic spices with graphite and dark plums, as well as black tea, iodine, white pepper and some redder plum, too. The palate has a striking level of concentration of rich red plums and blackberries. Super-fine,...

Saltram No. 1 Shiraz 2010

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "Intense release. Wealth of quality fruit and tannin. Carries a trademark coffeed toastiness but it doesn’t hammer the point; this wine is characterised by inky plum and dark earth flavour, and an impressive serving of it. Indeed it’s...

Henschke Hill of Grace 2012

Region: SA- Eden Valley
Vegan-friendly Organic Biodynamic Sustainably-made

  "One of the great iterations of this regal single site wine. Very spicy, dried ground baking spices on the nose as well as dried sage leaves and other roasting herbs and a kind of wet chalky element too. Not the saturation and swagger of 2010 or...

Wynns John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Region: SA- Coonawarra
Sustainably-made

    "Dense, powerful cabernet sauvignon with an array of dark fruits, cigar box, tobacco and subtle herb and spice notes supported by fine graphite-like tannins. The wine only hints at its potential and will need at least a decade before it...

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...

Toolangi Reserve Shiraz 2006

Region: VIC- Yarra Valley

  "Complex wine. Gamey, stalky, peppery and autumnal – there isn’t a lot of sweet fruit here, but there is a lot to keep you interested. Fleshy and juicy and vibrant." - The Wine Front   "Toolangi Vineyard is a special site for...

Saltram No. 1 Shiraz 2009

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "Ripe plums, black olives and dark cherries complemented with hints of cocoa and anise. This full-bodied red wine has a velvety palate with an excellent line of fruit flavours, chalky tannins and a fine lingering finish. The palate is dense with...

Brokenwood Graveyard Shiraz 2013

Region: NSW- Hunter Valley
Sustainably-made

Wine Front 96+ Points! "Forty-five year old vines. All French oak. This release streets the field. Some wines, even medium-bodied wines, just show us all how it’s done. Completely, cleanly, a whisper of nonchalance to the overt authority. The fold of...

Cullen Diana Madeline Cabernet Merlot 2014

Region: WA- Margaret River
Vegan-friendly Organic Biodynamic Sustainably-made

  "I was absolutely blown away by the quality of this new release from Vanya Cullen. It is probably the best young Australian red wine I have ever tasted an instant classic. It is still youthful but everything is beautifully balanced. With fruit...

Yeringberg Shiraz 2013 Museum Release

Region: VIC- Yarra Valley

  "Perhaps not surprisingly given our early experience with the variety in the 1970s, Shiraz has once again found a happy home in our vineyard. The 2013 vintage is a wine of depth, with lifted blue fruit, white pepper and intense aromatics...

Penfolds Bin 28 2013

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "An inky Shiraz, rich, dense and chewy with dark berry, liquorice and tar underpinned with spicy oak. Heroic wine that needs to be matched with fairly robust red meat dishes or allowed to age in bottle for at least a few years. Solidly structured...

Tyrrell's Vat 9 Shiraz 2010

Region: NSW- Hunter Valley
Sustainably-made

  "2010 exemplifies the precision of the modern era of Vat 9, benchmark Hunter Shiraz of enticing allure, unashamed medium-bodied restraint, finely textured body and understated longevity." - WBM Magazine

Greenock Creek Roennfeldt Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  "The nightshades are profuse in this remarkable wine. This family of flowering plants " the Solonaceae " range from the deadly datura and belladonna through the mandrake, tobacco and petunia tribes to many essential edibles: capsicum, potato,...

Clarendon Hills Astralis Shiraz 2011

Region: SA- Clarendon

  "The deep garnet-purple 2011 Astralis offers a nose redolent of Christmas pudding, allspice, mocha and anise along with a lovely core of prunes, black cherry preserves and dusty earth. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the mouth with elegant,...

Ulithorne Paternus Cabernet Shiraz 2010 (Damaged Label)

Region: SA- McLaren Vale

Grant Burge Meshach Shiraz 2010

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Mitolo Savitar Shiraz 2010 (Minor Damaged Label)

Region: SA- McLaren Vale
Vegan-friendly

    “Savitar” is a mythical dragon-like monster, and this wine is so named because of the impression Frank Mitolo and Ben Glaetzer had upon tasting one particular lot in the Willunga vineyard. They were so blown away they decided...
