Salomon Estate Wildflower Syrah Viognier
Yelland & Papps Stone Well Barossa Valley Syrah
This is cracking – Barossa at its most elegant. 95pt, Gold, Great Value “Damn fine drinking” Barossa Rhône-style Syrah “A distinctly Rhôney style; modest in alcohol and packed with ripe plum and cranberry fruits, pressed wildflowers, exotic spice and meaty nuance. Spacious and savoury on the palate with a light floral tilt, fine powdery tannin architecture and a stony, amaro-flecked exit. Damn fine drinking. 95pts, Great Value” (Dave Brookes, The Halliday Wine Companion). "Michael and Susan Papps (née Yelland) set up this venture after their marriage in '05. It is easy for them to regard the Barossa Valley as their home because Michael has lived and worked in the wine industry in the Barossa Valley for more than 20 years. He has a rare touch, producing consistently excellent wines". (Halliday).
E. guigal La Reynarde
Joining La Mouline, La Landonne and La Turque as Guigal’s fourth single-vineyard icon, La Reynarde represents a historic addition to Côte-Rôtie. Sourced from a 1.6-hectare terraced plot in the Fongeant lieu-dit along the Côte Brune, the 100% Syrah vines root deeply into granite, schist and iron-rich clay. Winemaker Philippe Guigal employs whole-cluster fermentation with traditional punch-downs, followed by 40 months of maturation in new French oak barriques. The palate delivers dark berry fruit, graphite and iron-tinged minerality bound by refined, architectural tannins. It offers collectors supreme prestige, regional distinction and immense cellaring potential.
Whitebox Shiraz
Whitebox Shiraz has aromas of dark fruit, spice and leather that leads into a palate of blackberries and cedar. The fruit sweetness is balanced by firm acid and fine tannins. A great example of Heathcote Shiraz from a favourite of Dan Murphy's customers over the years.
Sidewood Shiraz
Tucked away nicely in the Adelaide Hills, Sidewood Estate have made an art form out of crafting some of the very best single vineyard cool-climate wines available in Australia. Owen and Cassandra Inglis purchased the boutique property in 2004 and immediately set about making their vision become a reality. Their Sidewood Shiraz displays that vision to perfection. Attention to detail is the key here which enables flavours of red cherry, currants and dark plum to shine through along with hints of cinnamon and spice. The texture is beguiling and gives promise to a wine that will age for up to a decade.
Zuccardi Q Malbec
