Wolf Blass brings us a fruit driven style Shiraz Merlot Cabernet blend with a bouquet of lifted spice, plum, and subtle oak. The palate is medium bodied, showing soft fruit flavours with rich berry characters.

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.

Hardys R&R Shiraz shows plenty of value for money. Pepper and spice flavours are complemented by soft tannins and oak. Now available in a value pack 1 Litre bottle.

Full of dark berries and plums this richly-coloured and -flavoured wine is from South Eastern Australia. An excellent everyday wine it suits hearty soups and slow cooked lamb making it a perfect choice for winter evenings.

Punnets of strawberry, blackberry and raspberry flavour are miraculously shoehorned into a standard size bottle, while ageing in American oak adds a spicy, toasty finishing touch. 'Big Mac' McPherson grew up in the world of wine, tutored by his father Jock, who had established a winery in the Hunter Valley. Andrew went on to set up wineries at home and abroad and work for some Australia's top names. These days he crafts characterful wines by himself at great value prices. The Full Fifteen is perfect with roast beef or lamb and a wonderful companion to barbecues.

Porta Luna personifies the dynamic orbit of the moon. A drop that is otherwordly, this Cabernet Melot is medium bodied with an abundance of red cherry, plum and raspberry characters. Soft tannins on the palate leave a lingering finish. Perfect match for a slow cooked roast lamb or caramelised roasted vegetables.
