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.

Fareham Estate Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
$15.40Late last year we purchased a collection of Shiraz and Cabernet of exquisite quality from a ‘five star’ winery, this rating being awarded by a noted wine writer. I can say no more as part of any purchase means we are forbidden to use the maker’s name.
-
‘The Regions’ Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
$14.80One our best ever purchases came late last year which I termed ‘the five star winery haul’ and that is the source of this beautiful Clare Valley Cabernet-a five star winery. As for the source, well our lips are sealed.

Colton & Hewett McLaren Vale/Barossa Valley Cabernet Shiraz 2015
$11.80The common sense drinker should only think of what is in the glass and this maturing red delivers.
-
Cellar Range Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021
$15.20We cannot reveal the source since the reason wines like this are offered is because the grower-maker wants anonymity. They want no conflict with their brand which as in all cases they offer the same wine at far higher prices.
-
Terrene Estates Limestone Coast Shiraz 2021
$11.50Terrene is a medieval English term that is suggestive of the French term terroir, for origin. Glug is attracted to wines that meet our quality terms yet are from unknown districts since we can buy them at lower prices. So expect high quality at a fair price.
-
Mount Eagle Eden Valley Riesling 2022
$13.30‘You Australians don’t get Riesling’ I was once told by a New Zealand expert. The discussion was over a glass of Grosset Clare Valley Riesling and my response was to nod wisely and keep drinking. Naturally the Clare taste is different to the fragrant aromas and softness of those from New Zealand.

Farmers & Growers Wheatsheaf Barossa Valley Field Blend NV
Original price was: $9.80.$8.00Current price is: $8.00.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.
-
Glug ‘The Back Block’ Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
$14.20This Cabernet is not like that from say the Yarra Valley. You will detect a varietal resemblance and then the warmth of the Barossa takes over and being the Barossa there is more body weight on the palate.
-
Karrawirra Barossa Valley Shiraz Cabernet 2021
$15.00What a beautiful wine, the result of perfect vintage, the 14th for Karrawirra. Karrawirra is a traditional Glug brand so expect a traditional interpretation of a Barossa red.
-
Borderland Estates ‘Flocking Galloots’ South Australia Sauvignon Blanc 2023
$8.60Glug simply loves Sauvignon Blanc. We were there in the mid late 1970s promoting the variety when the elite shunned it – indeed they were scathing of its potential.
-
Glug ‘Primis’ Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
$13.80It is the Glug view that the delights of warm climate Cabernet have not been recognised an we continue our mission to alter this perception. The Glug Primis is a ‘once off’ bottling of wine purchased from a local boutique. It offers Glug customer excellent value. Big red at 14.9% alcohol.
-
Karrawirra Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
$16.50The Barossa Valley has a long history with Cabernet though it’s not rated as highly as the Shiraz which is wrong. We made just under 100 cases.
