Glug ‘Sunday Drive’ Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $14.60.$7.00Current price is: $7.00.Adelaide Hills vineyards are small and variable. A bit of good ground here and a further tiny parcel over the hill crest.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Primitivo 2023
Original price was: $13.70.$8.00Current price is: $8.00.The climate of the Barossa Valley creates full flavoured wines that charge across the palate. In addition, they show complexity, and it is this combination that has fascinated consumers and winemakers for so long. These flavours play out in the traditional varieties Shiraz, Cabernet, Grenache and Mataro.
There are other varieties planted, though all in small lots, that have been trialled for several decades and these include, Carignan, Durif, the many Portuguese port varieties, Primitivo or Zinfandel and many others. These interest Glug as we see our role as introducing new styles and unfamiliar varieties to our customers-to keep up their wine interest.

Crayford Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2023
Original price was: $14.80.$9.00Current price is: $9.00.Shiraz 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.
