Kalleske Clarrys Grenache Shiraz
Old vine Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro are blended in this elegant wine from South Australias Barossa. Raspberry, violets and rich red fruits play on the palate and make is just right for roast chicken with lots of vegetables.
Santa Margherita Chianti Classico
Santa Margherita Chianti Classico hails from the historic Tuscan region of Chianti; the spiritual home of Sangiovese. This exciting Sangio has an intense ruby red colour with faintly garnet tones. The initial aromatic sensations are sweetish and vanilla-like, typical of wines matured in barriques. The clean, ethereal bouquet then highlights Sangioveses spicy notes. On the palate we again find very well integrated oak which soon gives way to hints of wild berry fruit preserve and to that nuance of spices we perceived on the nose.
Isole E Olena, Chianti Classico
Tenuta San Guido Le Difese, Toscana
Torbreck The Struie Red
A tried and true expression of ripe and generously flavoured shiraz that lets the fruit do the talking rather than excessive oak or alcohol. Traditionally a blend of Barossa and Eden Valley estate grown fruit, there's so much to like here ; delicately scented spice, earth and licorice complexities intertwine with layers of supple, mouth filling blue and black fruits. Savoury, long and fine, quality French oak imparts gentle cedar notes to complete the picture. 'A blend of Barossa and Eden Valleys. An extremely powerful and complex wine, with a major question hanging over its head in the form of tis alcohol; there is an ocean of black fruits, but the alcohol warmth is a take it or leave it issue.' (2012 Vintage) - 94 Points. - James Halliday - Published on 26 Jul 2014.
Torbreck The Steading Grenache Blend
One of the bast examples going around. Incredibly ripe and sweet fruited bouquet and palate, showing Grenache's love for the heat; soft and ripe, warm and fleshy, with a splash of savoury spice to conclude.
Argiano Rosso di Montalcino
Rosso di Montalcino has an intense ruby-red colour, it is medium-bodied, with good concentration. The palate is elegant and well-balanced, flavours of red fruits, violet, menthol and earth, all characteristics of Argianos terroir. A generous wine with smooth and velvety tannins that will please all Sangiovese lovers. A lovely dry red from the DOC wine in Tuscany.
Frescobaldi Castiglioni Chianti
Deep in the heart of Chianti in Italy's beautiful region of Tuscany lies Frescobaldi. Made from Sangiovese with a touch of Merlot to soften the palate, the wine displays bright cherry and red berry fruit with a well balanced savoury backbone of earthy spice.
Casanova Di Neri Tenuta Nuova
Tapanappa Foggy Hill Vineyard Pinot Noir
Former Hardys Chief Winemaker Brian Croser, knows a thing or two about wine and it shows in the quality of wines this 5 Red Star winery produces. Intense and brooding, this sweet Pinot Noir has complex black fruit and a definite tannin structure that provides a savoury finish.
