[SOLD-OUT] Craiglee Shiraz 2008

Region: VIC- Sunbury

Campbell Mattinson 95 points! "Craiglee is at its best when it's both ripe and pepper-spicy at once. This 2008 Craiglee is an example of the vineyard at its best. It's blueberried and black cherried but it's (black) pepper spicy and super fine...

[SOLD-OUT] Pierro Chardonnay 2009

Region: WA- Margaret River

The run of very good to excellent vintage for chardonnay in Margaret River almost defies belief: the years from 2004 to 2010 have certainly produced outstanding chardonnays for Pierro. While each vintages produces a unique wine, the quality has been...

[SOLD-OUT] Tapanappa Piccadilly Chardonnay 2009

Region: SA- Adelaide Hills

"This new wine is a little brother to Tapanappa's Tiers Chardonnay. It has a rich, full-blown stone fruit and nutty bouquet showing lees and barrel-ageing characters. High acidity and rich, generous fruit flavours of peach and cashew nut; not overtly...

[SOLD-OUT] Penfolds Bin 407 2008

Region: SA-(Other)

Tyson Stelzer 96 Points!"Never in the history of Bin 407 has a cabernet of such desk-thumping precision been let loose. Coonawarra and its neighbouring regions have loaded this vintage with every classic cabernet character in the book. Tannin engineering...

[SOLD-OUT] Penfolds Bin 150 Marananga Shiraz 2008

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

"Intense Barossa Shiraz with classic chocolate/mocha and sweet American oak flavours (matured in a mix of American and French oak although the US oak appears more dominant). A backbone of firm, ripe tannins suggests a decade or more of cellaring...

[SOLD-OUT] Best's Thomson Family Shiraz 2008

Region: VIC- Great Western

Campbell Mattinson 94 points! "It's grown on vines planted in 1867 " another way of saying that it's both a) rare and b) unable to replicated. 2008 was a warm year but a very good one in the Grampians. It has that beautiful even-tempered ripeness so...

[SOLD-OUT] Cape Mentelle Zinfandel 2007

Region: WA- Margaret River

Jeremy Oliver 96 points! "America, look out! This astonishing zin has an explosively floral fragrance of blueberries, blackberries and sweet charry, perfumed oak backed by spicy, meaty undertones. Deep and alluring, it's silky-smooth but stacked with...

[SOLD-OUT] Wolf Blass Black Label 2005

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Jeremy Oliver 95 Points!'Artfully smooth, polished and integrated, this sumptuous, deeply layered red has a dark, briary bouquet of v very ripe dark plums, blackberries and a hint of raisin tightly knit with new smoky, cigarboxy oak. Full to medium in...

[SOLD-OUT] Heathcote Estate Shiraz 2008

Region: VIC- Heathcote

"The rare, ideal location of Heathcote Estate, planted on the deep red Cambrian soil, imparts amazing depth and character to our shiraz. The 2007 wine is a blend of BVRC12, BVRC30, SA1654, ESA3021, PT23, SA1127 clones. These clones are planted across...

[SOLD-OUT] Mount Langi Ghiran Langi Shiraz 2008

Region: VIC- Grampians

Nick Stock 98 Points!Best Shiraz and Wine of the Year!-Good Wine Guide 2011"A much-anticipated vintage that doesn't let an ounce of expectation go to waste, this continues the wine's upward trajectory with conviction. Plenty of depth from these old (45...

[SOLD-OUT] Wantirna Lily Pinot Noir 2009

Region: VIC- Yarra Valley

Campbell Mattinson 93+ Points!"I was on the alert for signs of smoke taint in this wine but saw none whatsoever. It's a beautiful wine to drink, regardless of vintage. It tastes of cherries and rose petals and swish, cedary, spicy oak, though it comes...

[SOLD-OUT] Rockford Rifle Range Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

[SOLD-OUT] Rockford Basket Press Shiraz 2008

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

[SOLD-OUT] Kay Brothers Block 6 Shiraz 2008

Region: SA- McLaren Vale

Tyson Stelzer 94 points! There's a core of energy in Block 6 that permeates every crevice of this wine, toned down a notch in ripeness this year, highlighting the complexity of its Christmas cake spice and berry fruits. New American and Baltic oak...

[SOLD-OUT] Bass Phillip Gamay 2009

Region: VIC- Gippsland

"Following in the footsteps of some fantastic recent vintages, this 2009 Bass Phillip Gamay is probably closer to the Beaujolais-Villages classe (or even Cru-classe) than most of the Beaujolais (Gamay) wines we are familiar with in Australia. In fact,...

[SOLD-OUT] d'Arenberg Dead Arm Shiraz 2007

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

Jeremy Oliver 95 Points!"Brooding, dark and powerful, this rather closed young red will take tome to unfold its layers of deep, dark plums and berries, its meaty, chocolatey complexity and its seasoned, cedary oak. Scented with pepper and spice, it's...

[SOLD-OUT] Greenock Creek Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Phillip White 94+++ Points!"Many deep red thinkers suggest the Barossa sometimes makes Cabernet that beats its Shiraz. Here's a wine that many will offer as proof. All the impossible florals are here, with the confectioner's window wide open next door...

[SOLD-OUT] Kaesler The Bogan Shiraz 2007

Region: SA- Barossa Valley

Gary Wlash 93 Points!"A uniquely Australian name for a uniquely Australian style. Incredible purple black colour " looks like a barrel sample. Cassis, blackberry nip, menthol, a violet port like fragrance, and smooth, smooth vanilla oak. There's some...

[SOLD-OUT] Dry River Pinot Noir 2003

Region: NZ- Martinborough

Bob Campbell 93 Points!"The usual criticsm for this incredibly dense wine is "it's a very impressive red, but it's not Pinot Noir". I believe that time will restore any appearant loss of varietal integrity. Furthermore I've put my money where my mouth is...

[SOLD-OUT] Wendouree Shiraz-Malbec 2008

Region: SA- Clare Valley
