Restless Farm ‘The Deer’ Eden Valley Shiraz 2020
$13.20The Eden Valley is dryer and higher than the Barossa Valley and as the reds from Henschke show produces a wonderful variant of Barossa Shiraz.

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.

Landaus Vintners ‘Blockies’ South Australia Shiraz Mataro 2022
$8.80Since the first wine in 2007, the finishing touch to Blockies has come from the use of high-quality Mataro. We believe Mataro is the best all-purpose variety to use when adjusting the wine flavours of warm climate reds. Incidentally Mataro has no role of course in making cool climate reds. Thus, the back palate lift comes from the addition of about 15%, high quality Barossa Valley Mataro. The result is as good as the first we made in 2007.

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.

Kitts Creek Barossa Valley Mataro 2018
$14.50The Barossa Valley is about 30 kilometres in length and we favour grapes from the central to northern limit as these provide the rich, full bodied styles which Glug favours.

Mount Eagle Eden Valley Cabernet Syrah 2022
$14.10The best way I can describe this Mount Eagle is to appreciate that the medium density, the result of the location, displays a range of flavours, perhaps fragrant, which tend to be masked in wines from the adjoining Barossa Valley.
