Glug Final Edition Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
$16.50The Barossa Valley has no equal, globally for power and concentration. My reading relates how consumers have changed, “They want lighter, fresher styles designed for modern drinking occasions….with new packaging and clearer, taste-led cues to make the range easier to shop”. Glug recommends the exact opposite as found in the Final Edition.

Oakley Adams McLaren Vale Malbec 2023
$12.80A McLaren Vale Malbec chosen for one simple reason: outstanding flavour for the price. Often used in blends, Malbec shines here on its own, delivering richness and character that proves variety matters less than good wine at the right value. Different, impressive, and bottled exactly as we found it.
