Bagot Station Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
$13.40Young reds from the right vintages without hard extract are magnificent. This Bagot reminds me of those deeply coloured and powerful Moulin a Vent-Beaujolais, I imported in the 1970s. Deep in colour, one glass led to another, as did the bottles. How can wine be so pleasant. This vintage produced wines with a pronounced aroma and the winemaker has highlighted this with a light touch in the winery-such as no pressings added back. A must buy though will not evolve into a Karrawirra.

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.

Glug ‘The Escapee’ Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
$14.60In a district like the Barossa Valley the long summer never ends and grapes can be left hanging well into April or May and you can watch the berries shrivel in the heat. Vintage 2021 was favourable for the development of flavours and is as close to 10/10 as is possible. The grapes for this Glug Cabernet were harvested for full ripeness in the Glug style. We prefer drinking wines when younger though this wine will hand around in a good cellar for a long time.

Square Mile Barossa Valley Cabernet Merlot 2020
$13.80As I tell customers ‘judge what is in the glass’ not what you wish it to be. Barossa Merlot is delicious when you ask, is it a good drink.
-
Landaus Vintners ‘The Diviner’ South Australia Shiraz Grenache 2022
$8.80I rate this Diviner as the best we have made and that is because of the base we discovered last year. Also supplies of warm climate Grenache have improved allowing us to spread this resource into wines like the Diviner.
-
Grandma Raethel Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
$19.50The Grandma wines remain true to our belief that Barossa reds reflect the warm climate and location which in classical vintages achieves a flavour depth and fruit sweetness along mid palate, that is not found in wines from any other place globally.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
$14.80Cabernet makes firm wines and the tannic toughness can get out of control so blending with the soft, fleshiness of Merlot comes naturally.

Restless Farm ‘The Elephant’ Langhorne Creek Shiraz 2021
$12.80Great vintages happen when everything goes just right such as a long even ripening without stress on the vine and thus the bunches of grapes. The excitement grows that 2021 will be one of the classics and I have my finger crossed that it may equal the 1996.
