Talk about value for money! So much fruit, so much oak, so much intensity, all packed into one gorgeous bottle. This price turns what would normally be a special occasion wine into the ultimate weekday warrior. From the sloping foot hills of the Barossa ranges comes a big, bad, bustling, Barossa beauty. The old vines of the site create slow-ripened, small bunches of shiraz grapes rich with concentrated black and dark red fruits. A deeply layered wine with fragrant American oak, hints of black pepper spice and enduring, yet fine-grained tannins. The sheer intensity of flavour puts this wine in a really good spot to reward aging for 10+ years but, as we always say, a bird in hand is worth two in the bush. Drink it whenever you want, why needlessly deprive yourself of this kind of happiness...

This wine from Limestone Coast has complex terroir of minerals layered with rich aroma of plum, blueberry and vanilla beans. It has the perfect balance between fluitiness and earthy complexity from the slighly acidic soil.

When we heard 5th generation McLaren Vale legends, Angove, were turning their hand to Barossa shiraz, we sat up and took notice. When we actually tasted the thing, we nearly fell off our chairs. Deep, dark, dense, delicious. This is a complete steal. This wine was crafted using traditional techniques at the historic, century-old Angove winery. After gentle de-stemming, wild fermentation was embraced in open fermenters to let the site’s character shine. Twice-daily hand plunging and pump-overs built colour, structure and complexity. Once dry, the wine was basket-pressed and sent to French oak for a long, slow maturation. Blackberry compote, aniseed and crushed herbs leap from the glass, supported by overt cedar and warming spice. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with a velvety texture that weaves dark plum, mocha and savoury oak into a seamless whole. Bright acidity and fine tannins stretch the finish long and clean. This is Barossa done beautifully. Drink now - it'll last for 10 years in the cellar but just drink it, it's so good right now.

This is Barossa shiraz with a refined edge. It’s generous and expressive from the first pour, with lifted florals, red berries, cracked black pepper and spice flowing through the aromatics and into the palate - juicy raspberry and forest fruits supported by clove, graphite and a touch of violet. Z Wines are making outstanding shiraz for fun these days...
