Glug ‘North Block’ Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
$14.60The point of Barossa Shiraz is its unique depth and ripeness. Pale, delicate and light has its place as does a wine like this which is the opposite. Look for an intense depth of ‘sweetness’ along the mid palate which is a feature that seems to be unique to the Barossa Valley. I hasten to add the wine is dry its just that the taste appears as described.

P.B. Burgoyne Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$11.60Eden Valley is considered a cool climate district. Cool climate districts though are not all the same since coolness can come from elevation or latitude or a combination.
Further variations are created by the closeness to the ocean, being a source of cool air, and rainfall as humidity seems to play a role in creating the taste.

Glug ‘Sunday Drive’ Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $14.60.$9.00Current price is: $9.00.Adelaide 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.

Crayford Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2023
$14.80Shiraz forms the stable known base. Grenache has alcoholic strength but less palate taste and brings to the blend beguiling aromas and a different palate impression to Shiraz. Yet what are these two without Mataro which maintains order by rearranging both and providing a strength of character particularly on the back palate. Still the genius of this wine remains the Grenache.
