Kitts Creek Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$15.80This region is higher, drier and with a different weather pattern to the Southern and middle part of the Barossa. What we want from the wines of this region is Barossa strength yet with the cooler evenings the fruit aromas are more fragrant which also shows on the palate.

The Green Patch Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$13.80Boutiques now make more wine than they can sell at the high prices they charge. Indeed 50% of the current oversupply is called ‘premium’ for the first time ever. Glug hunts through this surplus to find wines we bottle as ‘One Offs’ like this Green Patch. Now you see them, then they are gone.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
$14.50The Barossa Valley is a remarkable wine region to visit. To move from admiring the landscape in the manner of the occasional visitor to having a profound knowledge of the how the landscape evolved (geomorphology) has given me much satisfaction.
I know Old Moppa Road very well. It runs along the western edge of the northern Barossa Valley a location with many old vine vineyards. Alas for this vintage we could not buy grapes from the location we wanted along Old Moppa so moved further north to secure supply.
This vintage was a true Barossa vintage without prolonged hot spells nor unsettling cooler periods. So out of 50 vintages the 2022 would be like about 25 of them. You want to sit with the average not the extremes. Looks good in the glass as I write this note but am wary about long term cellaring.
The wine is rich and deep but all vintages make me cautious as the unexpected can appear as they age, so 10 plus years is not recommended – unless you are happy.
