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...

Noon Winery Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Region: SA- McLaren Vale
Vegan-friendly Sustainably-made

  "Gentle mint notes on the nose give the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve a lifted, almost floral character. Combined with cherry and cassis fruit, it's clear that this is Cabernet, albeit very ripe, full-bodied Cabernet, with a supple, almost...

Tyrrell's Vat 1 Semillon 2016 Winemakers

Region: NSW- Hunter Valley
Sustainably-made

  There's a wow factor to this wine, the way in which it manages to harness such impressive power and concentration and deliver it in such smooth, seamless and tubular shape is a thing to marvel at. Aromas of gently flinty lime and lemon fruits...

Tyrrell's Stevens Semillon 2011

Region: NSW- Hunter Valley
Sustainably-made

  "Pour a glass of this for the unwary, and half will think it's a cool climate riesling, the lemon juice acidity suggesting the Eden Valley as one possibility, Porongurup another. It is really hard to spit out, and I console myself thinking it's...

Balnaves The Tally Reserve Cabernet 2015

Region: SA- Coonawarra

  "Deep, dark and foreboding in the glass, lovely colour. Aromatics of plums, mulberries, chocolate, vanilla and a bit of cedar and tobacco, there's a lot going on here. The palate is all deep, dark and not so mysterious. There's blackberry,...

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...

Ulithorne Paternus Cabernet Shiraz 2013

Region: SA- McLaren Vale

  "This wine exhibits a beautifully deep crimson colour alongside plentiful aromas of blackcurrant, raspberry, and mulberry on the nose. The palate is bursting with ripe dark fruit such as plum and juicy blackberry, which are complemented by pepper...

Petaluma Coonawarra Cabernet Merlot 2010

Region: SA- Coonawarra

96 POINTS - GOURMET TRAVELLER!    "As always pairs cabernet sauvignon with merlot. I found a very attractive, fragrant bouquet of red fruits, particularly raspberry, with oak and cedary bottle-age all nicely melded. Peter Bourne agreed,...

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...

Henschke Keyneton Euphonium 2010

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

  This has come on well since seven years ago. Typical regional raspberry, and spicy/vegetal bouquet, laced with dried herbs including thyme and oregano. Medium bodied, soft, supple; drinking very well now. Lovely wine, elegant and drinking in its...

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...

Clarendon Hills Domaine Clarendon Syrah 2012

Region: SA- McLaren Vale

  "Sweet-berried fruit with aspects of tar, aniseed and black forest cake; robust and full-bodied; warm but juicy/spicy through the finish. If you ordered this from a restaurant list, looking for a big-but-modern red to melt into, you wouldn't be...
