The key to understanding the wines of the Adelaidean Mount Lofty Range since the flavours of the other regions relate back to this benchmark. Famed for Shiraz, Cabernet, Grenache and Mataro. Full bodied and intensely favoured reds that stand alone. There are no global comparisons.

  • Goat Square Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022

    Original price was: $15.80.Current price is: $11.00.

    This style of wine is what we wished to make when coming to the Barossa. This is achieved by using simple wine making methods, summed up as pick, ferment in small open fermenters, settle and age in old, oak puncheons.

  • Crayford Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021

    Original price was: $14.80.Current price is: $10.00.

    We enjoy wines like this Crayford when younger though the wine will hold up well for many years.

  • Karrawirra Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet 2021

    $16.50

    What a beautiful wine, the result of perfect vintage, the 14th for KarrawirraKarrawirra is a traditional Glug brand so expect a traditional interpretation of a Barossa red.

  • Crayford Barossa Valley Shiraz Durif 2022

    Original price was: $14.80.Current price is: $9.00.

    What varieties can be used to make wines that create a taste that carries the global badge ‘made in Australia’. Shiraz for sure as it takes on another dimension in our warm regions. Of the many hundreds of other varieties it is work in motion though a Glug favourite for stardom is Durif.

  • Oakley Adams Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

    $12.80

    Barossa Cabernet that changed perceptions. While tradition says the best Cabernet comes from cool climates, Australia proves otherwise—great Cabernet thrives from the Hunter to Clare, and especially the Barossa. The Oakley Adams release captures this fresh identity: bold, elegant, and proof that if the wine tastes good, you’ve found the right place.

  • The Green Patch Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

    Original price was: $13.80.Current price is: $9.00.

    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.

  • Crayford Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2023

    Original price was: $14.80.Current price is: $10.00.

    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.

  • Kitts Creek Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

    $15.80

    Only recently have smart customers again realised how agreeable are warm climate Cabernet wines.

  • 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.

  • Glug ‘The Long Shot’ Barossa Valley Primitivo Shiraz 2023

    $13.70

    This is a red you will enjoy being a blend of the Italian variety Primitivo with our local favourite Shiraz. Shiraz is the outstanding variety for Australia and rises to heights that eclipse any other Global region. The blend with Primitive works as this variety also responds to our local summer heat. A pleasing addition to the Glug portfolio.

  • Barbarossa Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet Durif Mataro 2022

    Original price was: $15.80.Current price is: $10.00.

    NMD is short for ‘no more details’ and is the game we played with the early releases of the Barbarossa. The name Barbarossa and knowledge that it was 100% Barossa Valley was all customers were told. A real guessing game.

  • Goat Square Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022 375ml bottle

    Original price was: $8.00.Current price is: $5.00.

    A consistent expression of Barossa Shiraz in its fifteenth vintage, made with simple methods to highlight ripe, plump fruit and soft texture. Gentle handling and no new oak keep the focus on drinkability, delivering an honest, “salt of the earth” Barossa red.

  • Goat Square Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2023

    Original price was: $15.80.Current price is: $9.00.
