Schild Estate Moorooroo Shiraz 2013

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

    "Sourced from vines planted in 1847, this is a full-bodied, open-knit wine, supple and velvety in texture. Vanilla cream and black cherries mark the nose, while the flavors are more savory, resembling black olives and grilled meat. It's...

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

  "Cola, dried spices, menthol and blueberry notes all appear on the nose of the 2014 Astralis Syrah. A massive yet approachable wine, it's full-bodied and creamy-textured, with a rich, velvety finish that picks up awesome savory notes of anise,...

Grant Burge Meshach Shiraz 2013

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Wynns Michael Shiraz 2015

Region: SA- Coonawarra
Sustainably-made

   "Perfumed and musky, meaty and earthy, with pristine dark fruits, restrained oak and gentle, crunchy tannins. Long and supremely elegant." - Jeremy Oliver   "Coonawarra shiraz is an interesting conversation. A dialogue between cool...

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...

Seppelt St Peters Shiraz 2014

Region: VIC- Grampians

Grant Burge Meshach Shiraz 2012

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

  " The fruit for this wine has tremendous concentration and intensity, making Meshach a powerful, yet beautifully balanced wine.Winemaking with grapes from such old vines is kept simple. After crushing, the grapes were inoculated with yeast and...

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...

Standish The Standish Shiraz 2015

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Wine Front 96 Points! "Interesting to taste these wines. They have plenty of tannin, well-settled acidity, not a great deal of oak, and a ‘natural’ kind of feel. That is, they’re about fruit (and therefore vineyard) expression, yet also come across with...

d'Arenberg Dead Arm Shiraz 2011

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

Ray Jordan 96 points!"The cooler than normal season has resulted in a supremely elegant and most stylish expression of this famous wine. Perfumed notes on the nose with lifted red berry and hints of lavender. On the palate, the reduced opulence is...

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...

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...
