• Glug Final Edition Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023

    Original price was: $16.50.Current price is: $8.00.

    The 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.

  • Hopcroft & Cornock McLaren Vale Shiraz 2021

    Original price was: $14.80.Current price is: $11.00.

    McLaren Vale Shiraz offers a fascinating contrast to the Barossa. A warm-climate wine shaped by coastal influence, delivering richness with a distinctive edge. Its unique geography creates wines that are both generous and complex, making it a region worth returning to again and again.

  • Cellar Range Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

    Original price was: $14.80.Current price is: $7.00.

    The final bottling, only 30 cases, so released as a Cellar Range. For small bottlings we can print in-house as using specialist label printers is very expensive for small numbers. Classic style from a great vintage. A bargain.

  • The Regions Clare Valley Shiraz 2022

    Original price was: $13.60.Current price is: $8.00.

    Please return to the Clare Valley as the wine flavours are magnificent. Its Way up North yet the wines have intriguing cool climate minty flavours simply delicious. Another district that will one day have global fame. What Australia has that other continents do not is a sudden burst of hot weather that puts the ‘icing’ on the flavours.

  • Salem Valley Barossa Valley Cabernet Shiraz 2022

    Original price was: $12.80.Current price is: $7.00.

    This tiny village does exist and is now an extension of Angaston. The original church is still open and fronting the main street frontage are many cottages of this era. The wine though is a blend from many barrels as we are in clearing mode and contains Barossa Valley and Eden Valley from many sub-districts.

    Barossa Cabernet expresses the variety in a warmer, fuller style, delivering richer flavours than cooler regions while retaining complexity and depth.

    Classic Barossa Shiraz. Full, ripe and generous, just as we like it. Made from fully ripened grapes with light extraction, this 2022 delivers rich flavour now rather than needing long cellaring, showing why Barossa Shiraz remains unmatched for depth and value.

  • The Regions McLaren Vale Shiraz 2022

    Original price was: $14.50.Current price is: $10.00.

    McLaren Vale Shiraz shaped by the cooling influence of the nearby ocean, where maritime freshness meets inland heat. The 2022 vintage delivers a rich, powerful style at 15.3% alcohol. A big wine that shows why McLaren Vale stands alongside Australia’s great coastal regions.

    A rich, full-bodied Barossa Cabernet showing the region’s distinctive ripe style. Powerful yet balanced, it delivers the depth of flavour and generosity that set Barossa Cabernet apart from cooler-climate expressions.

  • Kitts Creek Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

    Original price was: $15.80.Current price is: $8.00.

    This region is higher, drier and with a different weather pattern to the Southern and middle part of the Barossa. What we want from the wines of this region is Barossa strength yet with the cooler evenings the fruit aromas are more fragrant which also shows on the palate.

  • The Green Patch Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

    Original price was: $13.80.Current price is: $7.00.

    Boutiques now make more wine than they can sell at the high prices they charge. Indeed 50% of the current oversupply is called ‘premium’ for the first time ever. Glug hunts through this surplus to find wines we bottle as ‘One Offs’ like this Green Patch. Now you see them, then they are gone.

  • Glug Reserve Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

    Original price was: $19.50.Current price is: $11.00.

    Inspired by Max Schubert’s quest for great South Australian Cabernet, we’ve worked with Barossa Cabernet since our early vintages and now release standout barrels under the Glug Reserve label. It will age well, though it is gorgeous now, so enjoy a few bottles early.

  • Oakley Adams McLaren Vale Malbec 2023

    Original price was: $12.80.Current price is: $10.00.

    A 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.

  • Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

    Original price was: $13.70.Current price is: $10.00.

    A full-flavoured Barossa Cabernet in the region’s signature warm-climate style. Rich, generous and built with depth. Unlike cooler-region Cabernets, this wine offers volume and power, with the structure to cellar beautifully over the next decade.

  • Oakley Adams Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022

    Original price was: $14.10.Current price is: $10.00.

    I keep telling the story of the role of wine merchants using Oakley Adams as they did the hard yards. The business was Melbourne based and began in 1871 as importers of wines and spirits. Later they promoted local wines which were bottled as Oakley Adams selections. Selling wine was hard work and did not become part of life of our social life until the post war years.

  • Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022

    Original price was: $14.50.Current price is: $10.00.

    The Barossa Valley is a remarkable wine region to visit. To move from admiring the landscape in the manner of the occasional visitor to having a profound knowledge of the how the landscape evolved (geomorphology) has given me much satisfaction.

    I know Old Moppa Road very well. It runs along the western edge of the northern Barossa Valley a location with many old vine vineyards. Alas for this vintage we could not buy grapes from the location we wanted along Old Moppa so moved further north to secure supply.

    This vintage was a true Barossa vintage without prolonged hot spells nor unsettling cooler periods. So out of 50 vintages the 2022 would be like about 25 of them. You want to sit with the average not the extremes. Looks good in the glass as I write this note but am wary about long term cellaring.

    The wine is rich and deep but all vintages make me cautious as the unexpected can appear as they age, so 10 plus years is not recommended – unless you are happy.
