Roxton McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
$14.60McLaren Vale has won more Trophies and Gold medals for Cabernet than for Shiraz and this is attributed to the ocean influence and associated cooling breezes. Globally it is believed that the best Cabernets come from districts with a maritime location, a view developed from the French understanding of flavour development.

Roxton McLaren Vale Shiraz 2021
$14.60Ninety minutes of pleasant driving across the Adelaide Hills links McLaren Vale with the Barossa Valley, the two most important districts within the Adelaidean Mount Lofty range. This Roxton is a fine example of the McLaren Vale style and a nice foil to our Karrawirra Barossa reds.

Borderland Estates ‘Flocking Galloots’ South Australia Sauvignon Blanc 2024
$9.60Glug simply loves Sauvignon Blanc. We were there in the mid late 1970s promoting the variety when the elite shunned it – indeed they were scathing of its potential.
-
Terrene Estates South Australia Chardonnay 2024
$9.60Vines arrived with the First Fleet, collected from European vineyards, while cuttings also came from Madeira and Cape Town, both with a long wine making history. More varieties arrived with the Busby collection of the 1830s. We know Chardonnay existed for a long time in Mudgee yet what was the origin? New clonal selections arrived though it was not till the mid to late 1980s that sufficient Chardonnay was being made to meet demand. Now all vineyard districts grown Chardonnay though it is no longer favoured in warm regions like the Barossa Valley. This Terrene Estates is a Glug blend from several sources.

Waitohi Springs Marlborough New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc 2023
$12.80Who was to know that plantings of Sauvignon Blanc along the river terraces of the Wairau River, draining the northern end of the South Island of New Zealand, in 1973 were to produce a taste sensation.
-
Farmers & Growers ‘The Ploughman’ South Australia Shiraz Grenache 2022
$8.70Can you make good wine that does not cost so much? Yes you can and when we began Glug we wanted a range of ‘quaffing dry reds’ or QDR’s as they are called that were of superior quality.
-
Hopcroft & Cornock McLaren Vale Rosé 2024
$13.80This is the first McLaren Vale Rosé we have stocked, a wine style that Glug enjoys when made from warm climate regions. Rosés made from the varieties Grenache and Mataro which fruit well in warm climates are our favourites.
-
Glug ‘Sunday Drive’ Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2023
$14.60Adelaide Hills vineyards are small and variable. A bit of good ground here and a further tiny parcel over the hill crest. Pocket handkerchief vineyards. Less common is exposure to the summer heat which ripens Shiraz and this ‘Sunday Drive’ we found irresistible and so purchased from a small garagiste maker. Cool climate though in the style of Eden Valley.

Fareham Estates Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$15.60A big rich, juicy Cabernet, minty, intense flavours, being part of the ‘five star red haul’ we stumbled across in mid-2024. Five stars being the winery rating of the wine writer James Halliday. Halliday published ‘Clare Valley-the history the vignerons and the wines’, in 1985. He devotes a section to Fareham Estate which was founded in 1966.
