Pikes The Hill Block Reserce Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Sip a 94pt Cabernet from popular, celebrated Pikes estate of Clare Valley, “From one of their oldest estate vineyards, now forty plus years of age... a fine line of juicy acidity, sleek tannins and good balance," (WinePilot). "… elegant yet quite distinctly potent … feels delightful to drink, not afraid to be restrained and reserved, yet offering up all the flourish of the variety. 94pts” (Mike Bennie, The Halliday Wine Companion). Pikes is a family business with drinks - beer, soft drinks and wine – in their history since the family arrived in the Clare Valley in 1868. Pikes is a very popular destination and brand, as illustrated by its winning the Halliday Wine Companion’s People's Choice Award in 2022 and 2023.
Mitchell Peppertree Sparkling Shiraz Non-Vintage
Bright ruby in the glass with a fine bead on the tongue that shows lifts of youthful sour cherry flavours with earthly undertones leading in to a lingering plummy finish.
Yeringberg Shiraz
This classic Yarra Valley Shiraz from Yeringberg is showing those trademark Shiraz characters of cracked black pepper and great fruit weight, there is also some good concentration and a long powdery tannin finish.
Bremerton Old Adam Shiraz
Bremerton Old Adam is a stunning example of Langhorne Creek Shiraz with dense and integrated fruit that exudes ripe plum and blackcurrant. Rebecca Willson is able to seperate each parcel of fruit that comes in off of the old vineyards and keeps them that way throughout fermentation and maturation in oak. This enables perfect barrel selection to create a wine of true distinction.
Jim Barry The Florita Riesling
Jim Barry simply can't put a foot wrong! From Australia's home of the tight, pure and powerful Riesling - the Clare Valley - comes The Florita Riesling. Purity in a glass, this Riesling is a magnificent micro siet Riesling that shows aromas and flavours of lime dominated citrus married with stonefruit characters that lend itself to some amazing food matches. It's no wonder the Riesling revival is at last beginning to come to fruition.
Brokenwood Wade Block 2 Shiraz
Vibrant, youthful colour, medium density and lovely purple tints for this Shiraz by Brokenwood. Being a cooler year the aromas are more on the spice cherry side than ripe and opulent. Medium weight palate and again spice and savoury edges. The tell-tale McLaren Vale jube fruit is there along with background oak.
Shingleback D Block Reserve Shiraz
The Shingleback D Block Reserve Shiraz is named for the Davey Block of the Davey Estate vineyard and is the personal expression of the McLaren Vale from the eyes of winemaker John Davey. True reserve wines, the D Block is only made in exceptional vintages just like this 2009. In the glass the wine has a colour that is impenetrable purple red. On the nose there are aromas of mulberry and blackberry that mingle with dusty cashew, milky chocolate (typical of McLaren Vale), spice and forest floor. There are tight, fine tannins to counter the bold, fresh fruit which results in an alluring and unmistakable wine that expresses the essence of the vine, the time and the place.
Seppelt St Peters Great Western Shiraz
Classic Great Western Shiraz with sumptuous ripe fruit aromas and peppery spicy characters. You'll love the velvety texture vanillin oak and fine tannins. Cellar with confidence.
