Mount Eagle Eden Valley Pinot Gris 2022
$11.80Pinot Gris is like an albino version of Pinot Noir with an appealing aroma, delicate palate and good length. It needs no barrel fermentation or barrel ageing or all the other wonderful winemaking tricks and seems best when treated just like a Riesling. Take the free run juice, ferment and bottle and when this is done correctly you will have in your hand a most appealing drink.

Glug ‘The Back Block’ Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Mount Eagle Eden Valley Riesling 2022
$11.80‘You Australians don’t get Riesling’ I was once told by a New Zealand expert.

Naturally the Clare taste is different to the fragrant aromas and softness of those from New Zealand.

Glug ‘The Bright Spark’ Barossa Valley Mataro 2021
Original price was: $13.80.$10.50Current price is: $10.50.The Barossa Valley climate is ideal for producing good crops of grapes that reach exceptional sugar levels and have plenty of colour. Historically these were used to produced fortified wines of high quality, particularly port. The three favoured varieties were Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro. I refer to these as the Barossa heritage varieties and many vines of great age survive.

P.B. Burgoyne Padthaway Shiraz 2021
$10.40The Barossa reds from 2021 are so good that a vintage rating of 10/10 is appropriate. Ideal weather of course covers a large area and reports and tastings of wines from the Limestone Coast-Great South East of S.A. also confirm a great vintage.

Farmers & Growers Wheatsheaf Barossa Valley Field Blend NV
Original price was: $9.80.$9.00Current price is: $9.00.What is a Field Blend? The varieties of vines e.g. Cabernet are propagated by cuttings so they are all identical. Back in time vines were crosses from pollination thus each plant was different. Also vineyards were often planted with many varieties. Hence the Field Blend being a wine made from all the different clones and varieties in the vineyard.
Recall the overall flavour is controlled by the weather of each vintage. There are many varieties and several vintages making this wine though you will detect Shiraz and Durif, favourites of Glug while the components are from several recent vintages.
