Crayford Barossa Valley Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2023
Original price was: $14.80.$10.00Current 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.

Glug ‘Sunday Drive’ Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2023
$14.60Adelaide Hills vineyards are small and variable. A bit of good ground here and a further tiny parcel over the hill crest. Pocket handkerchief vineyards. Less common is exposure to the summer heat which ripens Shiraz and this ‘Sunday Drive’ we found irresistible and so purchased from a small garagiste maker. Cool climate though in the style of Eden Valley.

Glug ‘The Long Shot’ Barossa Valley Primitivo Shiraz 2023
$13.70This 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.

Oakley Adams Adelaide Hills Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $12.50.$9.00Current price is: $9.00.There is a central spine of higher ground that runs down Adelaidean Mount Lofty Range and vineyards are planted up to 600 metres. The wines from these vineyards have cool climate flavours because of the altitude. This region east of Adelaide is termed the Adelaide Hills and is the source of this Shiraz. It comes though from lower elevations so tastes like a cool climate Barossan or a wine from Eden Valley.

Roxton McLaren Vale Merlot 2023
Original price was: $14.60.$10.50Current price is: $10.50.Roxton has a long history as a McLaren Vale brand though had faded and abandoned by the 1960s. The advanced customer should compare and enjoy Merlot from McLaren Vale and the Barossa Valley with our view being McLaren Vale has the edge.

Glug Final Edition Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $16.50.$10.00Current price is: $10.00.The Barossa Valley has no equal, globally for power and concentration. My reading relates how consumers have changed, “They want lighter, fresher styles designed for modern drinking occasions….with new packaging and clearer, taste-led cues to make the range easier to shop”. Glug recommends the exact opposite as found in the Final Edition.

Oakley Adams McLaren Vale Malbec 2023
Original price was: $12.80.$9.00Current price is: $9.00.A McLaren Vale Malbec chosen for one simple reason: outstanding flavour for the price. Often used in blends, Malbec shines here on its own, delivering richness and character that proves variety matters less than good wine at the right value. Different, impressive, and bottled exactly as we found it.

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.

Glug Reserve Barossa Valley Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $19.50.$12.00Current price is: $12.00.The first Glug reserve was a 2015 being a small parcel just too good to blend away which was bottled in 2017. By then we had learnt how to bottle tiny amounts leading to single barrel bottlings and small amounts. The point of Barossa Shiraz is its unique depth and ripeness. Thus pale, delicate and light has its place as does a wine like this which is the opposite; having an intense depth of ‘sweetness’ along the mid palate a feature that seems to be unique to the Barossa Valley.
