In 1843, Dr Lindeman, an upstanding man of formidable character, started his own winery. In doing so, he set his sights on civilising a colony of hard-drinking ruffians by introducing them to more gentlemanly pursuits, such as the enjoyment of a refined drop. This longheld tradition continues today with this handsome Cabernet Sauvignon, rich in blackcurrant and cassis, with a dash of fortified wine for a smooth finish. A fine wine by anyones standard.

An iconic Australian blend and one of the most popular wines from Penfolds' Koonunga Hill range, this Shiraz Cabernet offers exceptional value. The wine is loaded with raspberry, mulberry and redcurrant are supported by a whisper of grainny tannins and well integrated oak backbone.

A fresh and pure tasting Cabernet showing poise and structure. On the nose classic aromas of blackcurrant with a hint of dried herbs and cocoa. The palate is soft with a core of black fruit that is seamless and satisfying balanced by firm tannins and clean acidity. Pair with lamb shanks.

Lindemans Early Harvest wines are lighter in alcohol and calories. The Crisp Dry White has ripe flavours of citrus and tropical fruits balanced with clean, refreshing acidity.</p>

The label is a treat (a tiny vintage caravan parked outside a grand French château) but the wine itself is what's really special here. Made by Jimmy Watson trophy-winning John Quarisa, it's a big, rich red with velvety tannins and a long, smooth finish. THREE Golds show that the show judges love it too. This is impressive stuff!

David Joeky marries deep, black Durif and smooth spicy Shiraz to produce a darker, denser, profound red. As he says: “Magical things happen when Shiraz and Durif come together” . His Dark Corner bears that out to delicious perfection. The result? It's almost as dark as the corner in which it was made, a wine to stain your palate, and once tasted, you’ll be hooked. Ripe and mouthfilling, with blackberry, plum berry fruit and mocha flavours with a smooth, creamy texture

A recent addition to the Petaluma stable, the Petaluma of Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon is a great example of modern Australian winemaking when let to mingle with traditional wine estate and aged vineyards. Notes of dark chocolate, mocha, espresso and forest floor sit alongside bold blackcurrant fruit and cedar nuances. The finish is long and sustained.

Since the 1970s this quaffable Shiraz Cabernet blend has done its fair share of barbeque and dinner party circuits. Guaranteed with a consistency of quality that can only come from a big name like Penfolds who ensure it's packed with generous fruit flavours and freshness. Its hard to go past when it comes to an easy drinking red, that's easy on the wallet.
