Trial Bin 093 Barossa Cabernet Merlot Cabernet Franc M.V.
$10.40Great wines have been produced since the red wine trials of the 1950s by Max Schubert showed us the way. These evolved into Penfolds Range and the sweeping range of Bin numbers of today. This Trial Bin 093 helps us understand the blending of Barossa Valley with Eden Valley wines.

Old Moppa Road Barossa Valley Durif 2020
$14.80Deep in colour with great power describes the style Glug likes. Why the genes of the warm climate loving Shiraz when crossed with those of the high altitude, cool climate Peloursin produce the perfect variety for Australia, Durif, I do not understand. Instead of a mid-way point we have a supercharged Shiraz. Wonderful wine and the aroma will tell you what to expect.

Knotts Mount Lofty Ranges Vermentino 2024
$13.60I write this note, glass by my desk. Scented with a difference, shows fragrance, good length, made for Australia-a picnic white, for the anything but Chardonnay crowd. Perhaps serve on your boat on Sydney harbour, during summer of course.
Sourced from a nameless, smart boutique in the Adelaide Hills. For those without a boat, the rest of us, Vermentino like Gruner Veltliner will be one of the very large number of varieties that clamour for attention which you try a few times each year.

Glug ‘North Block’ Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
$14.60The point of Barossa Shiraz is its unique depth and ripeness. Pale, delicate and light has its place as does a wine like this which is the opposite. Look for an intense depth of ‘sweetness’ along the mid palate which is a feature that seems to be unique to the Barossa Valley. I hasten to add the wine is dry its just that the taste appears as described.

P.B. Burgoyne Eden Valley Riesling 2023
$11.60Eden Valley is considered a cool climate district. Cool climate districts though are not all the same since coolness can come from elevation or latitude or a combination.
Further variations are created by the closeness to the ocean, being a source of cool air, and rainfall as humidity seems to play a role in creating the taste.

Crayford Barossa Valley Shiraz Durif 2022
$14.80What 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.
-
Auld & Burton Clare & Barossa Valley Cabernet Merlot 2017
$12.20At Glug, wines come and go quickly. Here we have used two varieties from two regions in various proportions. I find more Clare in the final blend than Barossa so look for a touch less heat and higher altitude flavours. Finally explaining the Clare flavours continues to defy me.
