Barossa Cabernet expresses the variety in a warmer, fuller style, delivering richer flavours than cooler regions while retaining complexity and depth. With a long regional history dating back to the 19th century, this wine invites drinkers to explore Cabernet in its riper, more generous Barossa form.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Cabernet Merlot 2019
$14.50Cabernet makes firm wines and the tannic toughness can get out of control so blending with the soft, fleshiness of Merlot comes naturally.

Salem Valley Barossa Valley Cabernet Shiraz 2022
$12.80This 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.

Bagot Station Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
$13.40Young reds from the right vintages without hard extract are magnificent. This Bagot reminds me of those deeply coloured and powerful Moulin a Vent-Beaujolais, I imported in the 1970s. Deep in colour, one glass led to another, as did the bottles. How can wine be so pleasant. This vintage produced wines with a pronounced aroma and the winemaker has highlighted this with a light touch in the winery-such as no pressings added back. A must buy though will not evolve into a Karrawirra.

This Rara Avis, the fifth we have made since 2004, is our best Shiraz from 2022. Will keep for a long time though even the best we prefer to see consumed at a younger age.

Goat Square Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$15.80We last made Goat Square Cabernets in 2004, 2005, and 2006 then backed off as they did not fit the style we wanted for Goat Square. The Cabernet we harvested from a new source in 2021 was of another standard so we returned with the Goat Square 2021. We continue with the 2022.
