One of our most popular customers picks here at first Choice. Church Block was the first wine the late Greg Trott produced under the Wirra Wirra label back in 1972. He took the name from one of the original vineyards, which runs next to the small Bethany Church (Est 1854) across the road from Wirra Wirras century old ironstone cellars. The wine is a blend of 50% cabernet with 37% shiraz and 13% merlot delivering vibrant colour then true cabernet blackberry and cassis aromas and dominant flavour as well, while the rest of the varietal makeup adds a sweeter fruit-cored palate, full with bright red energy and comforting, easy drinking textures. Enjoy with Beef, mushroom and red wine pie.

This Spanish beauty is from the new-wave, modern producer, Tandem. It has a lovely waft of mint slice and blueberries, with some gutsy tannins that provide good support to olive tapenade and fennel notes. Tart cherry pie add depth with smoke and cedar notes lingering.

Red and black berries and is medium bodied with fine, elegant tannin. This wine has great length and shows sweet spice and dark chocolate notes from measured use of  French oak. Julian Langworthy named winemaker of the year 2018 by James Halliday.

'One of the best yet. Abundant vibrant cabernet and merlot with stacks of rich dark fleshy flavours. The nose is all black berries with savoury notes showing traces of black olive and dark chocolate. A little touch of leafy cedar completes the wine.' - 92 Points - West Australian, Perth 04 Oct 2012, by Ray Jordan.

The Hay Shed Hill Cabernet Merlot highlights the strength of Margaret River in producing medium-bodied, flavoursome and elegant Cabernet blends. Ripe berry fruits and textural tannins showcase this classic wine style. The bouquet is enticing, and the palate continues the theme with juicy cassis and redcurrant fruit, 12 months in French oak judged to perfection, contributing to both texture and flavour. Great example of value & drinkability from this outstanding winery.

Widely known to be pretty hit and miss, you often need to taste a hundred entry level Bordeaux wines to find one great one. That is literally what we did to discover Chateau Labatut, and what a discovery it is. We think this bright and fruit driven red is easily the best value Bordeaux in Australia.
