Savaterre Shiraz
The Savaterre vineyard is elevated at 430m above sea level and is farmed along organic principles. No pesticides are used. An incredibly complex, lifted, lively and intense nose. Exotic aromas of smoked meats, dried red rose, allspice, clove, dark plum, dark cherry ,blackberry, mulberry, mandarin, violets, sandalwood, bay and funky undergrowth. This aroma really revs me up, it continues to evolve as time goes by. This wine is alive! Complexity, poise, sinewy acid, fine tannins wrapped around a sleek core of pristine dark fruit. A wine thats slightly reduced and smelling of undergrowth now that transforms in the glass and continues to seduce. This is Terroir. This is Savaterre.

Two Hands Samanthas Garden Shiraz
Elderton Command Shiraz
Elderton's Command Shiraz is one old school Barossa Shiraz. Named because of the special treatment the quality fruit 'commanded', this is a Shiraz of foreboding concentration. The fruit for this 'Excellent' Langton's classified Australian icon comes from the century old Elderton vineyard located on the banks of the Para River and is matured in a mixture of French and American oak. This allows the wine to retain its driven power while also giving the wine a level of complexity and balance unique to this region and producer. Elderton's Command can be enjoyed by lovers of ripe and rich fruit early, yet will reward the truly patient with a wine of true beauty when left alone to mature for a decade.

Mt Lofty Ranges Vine Aspire Gamay
This Gamay is a vibrant, expressive wine that strikes an exceptional balance between savoury nuance and bright fruit character. From the first sip, it takes you on a journey, opening with tart red fruits, sour cherry and rhubarb, then transitioning thorugh a mid palate of fresh acidity, subtle herbaceous notes, and a savoury thread, indicative fo a cool vintage. The finish reveals a smoky, toasting depth with whispers of cured meats and charcuterie, adding intrigue and complexity. With its light to mid palate weight and a gentle touch of French oak, this Gamay is both refined and effortlessly drinkable, versatile, food-friendly and full of personality.
