d'Arenberg Footbolt Shiraz
d'Arenberg The Footbolt Shiraz is a firm favourite with many McLaren Vale Shiraz lovers and for good reason.

Scarpantoni Chardonnay
An excellent food wine, it matches well with just about any foods you might match a dry white wine to, but fresh white seafood dishes (white fish, squid, prawns & crabs) are perhaps the best accompaniment to this wine.
Vineyard Road Sparkling Brut Cuvee
This is an elegant wine, showing aromas of citrus notes, peach, lemon zest and a hint of toasty French pastry combined with a crisp clean palate of apple and stone fruit. Selected Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pino Gris fruit was carefully handled during the wine making process to preserve the bright fruit freshness.
Marauding Vintners Langhorne Creek Lady Chardonnay
For the Marauding Vintners, real wine is not a commodity, but an expression of people, place and time, where art and nature merge. They know the real deal is often found off the beaten track, and devote time to tracking down the genuine characters. Lady Chardonnay is quite the actress. Born, it's said, from a liaison between a French aristocrat and an uncultivated 'peasant'. She appears the world over in many guises, winning rave reviews in Burgundy, Champagne and select Aussie venues – appearing luscious and well-rounded where the sun shines most, lean and elegant in cooler climes. You'll adore the fresh, modern, beautifully balanced performance she gives here.
Silenus Reserve Black Label Langhorne Creek Chardonnay
Conditions for grape growing in Langhorne Creek are ideal thanks to the natural fertility of the floodplain soils, the ability of those soils to retain moisture from natural winter floods, and the moderation of the local climate by cooling evening breezes off nearby Lake Alexandrina and the Southern Ocean in summer. Fragrant honeydew melon, white peach, fleshy mango and pineapple, with lively acid on the back palate and just a touch of creamy oak. It’s a beautiful match to roast chicken with all the trimmings.
Penny's Hill The Agreement Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc
Shingleback Davey Estate Shiraz
