Peter Lehmann was the fifth generation of one of Barossa's pioneering families and is regarded as a legend of Australian wine. The winery is rated as a 5 star winery by James Halliday and the wines consistently demonstrate the diversity of the Barossa Valley region. The 8 Songs Shiraz is deep red in colour with a black core and a bouquet of charcoal chocolate notes with dark plum and mocha, finishing with soft velvety tannins and rich opulent fruit on the palate. Opulent fruit and velvety tannins creates an elegant expression of Barossa Shiraz at its sensuous best.

Crafted entirely from fruit grown on a mature single vineyard site on the North West edge of McLaren Vale, the KG Vineyard consistently produces small concentrated berries full of dark fruit flavours. This is a powerful red that will cellar magnificently.

The Barossa Old Vine Company has been 100 years in the making. They individually craft wines from the Barossa's finest fruit using the best (not necessarily modern equipment). The vines are anywhere from 35 to 100 years old and with award winning winemaker Nick Badrice at the helm it's not surprising this Shiraz is special. 2014 is the first vintage they released and the wines are produced in such small volumes you won't want to miss your chance to add this unique Barossa red to your cellar.

First made in 1959, Penfolds Kalimna Shiraz is an icon in the field of warm-climate Shiraz. Always ripe, robust and generously flavoured. The Bin 28 is named after the Kalimna vineyard that was purchased back in 1945 and from which the original fruit was sourced from. Today, the Bin 28 is a great example of the Penfolds dedication to multi-region, multi-vineyard blending. The Barossa Valley will always remain an integral part of the Bin 28 blend providing rich, vibrant primary fruit flavours.

Penfolds St Henri is one of Australia's greatest red wines. The Shiraz for St Henri is selected for subtlety and elegance and the finished wine has the structure complexity for extended bottle maturation. The 1991 is a classic St Henri vintage that is good to drink until 2022.

With vineyards approx. 5km from the ocean (as the crow flies) the benefits of the cooling breezes are evident on the wine. It is inky yet bright, with silky dark fruits and excellent length. Bold, smooth and wonderfully balanced

This McLaren Vale Shiraz is full bodied and with rich presence, the palate has abundant flavours of blackberry,early season fresh cherry - all vibrant and energetic with a hint of quality oak.

Created in 1962, Penfolds Bin 128 is a regional wine that reflects the unique climate and growing conditions of South Australia's Coonawarra district and the relatively elegant style of cool climate Shiraz. From the 1980 vintage, French oak replaced American, highlighting the pepper, spice and floral characteristics that define this style. Since the mid-1980s, a greater attention has been paid to fruit ripeness, resulting in a wine that is fuller in style and structure.

Yarnbombing' - a type of street art where public areas (like statues or trees) are decorated with yarn - is all about giving something traditional a modern twist. So it shouldn't be surprising that Corrina Wright, the unconventional and bright South Australian winemaker, used it as the name for her new wine. As a tribute to her grandmother, whose love of craft inspired Corina as a child, Corrina and family 'yarnbombed' a vine that had been cared for by family members for generations. But the wine itself is a worthy dedication on its own, offering nougat, mulberry and pepper notes on the palate with soft, generous tannins, meaty spice and a fresh lifted finish.

Taylors Jaraman Shiraz continues the long tradition of producing flavour rich red wines from premium vineyards across South Australia. This Shiraz is sourced from the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale regions and brings a little bit from both worlds with rich, foreboding fruit from McLaren working in harmony with the aromatic and textured Clare Valley fruit. Delicious today, yet will cellar nicely for the medium term.
