Serafino Bellissimo Nebbiolo
Hither & Yon McLaren Vale Rosato
Enjoy a delicious 'Italian-style' pink blend of Aglianico and Sangiovese, from McLaren Vale's dynamic Hither & Yon, with scores of 91 & 92pts. "“74/26% aglianico/sangiovese from the home Sand Road vineyard. A burnt orange tone and a savoury cast. Redcurrant and pomegranate, sour cherry, cool peach, rose, rhubarb and red apple skin. This is firmly pitched to the table. More power to that. There’s abundant fruit and flavour, but there’s a linearity of structure, fine tannin and acid in league, intertwined. Bring the food and it will sing.92pts.” (Marcus Ellis, The Halliday Wine Companion).It is "…fresh, juicy and crisp but it also has good spread (of flavour) through the finish, which is always the surest sign of quality. Red cherry, fennel, watermelon and an array of fragrant, Italian herb characters – and a flash of blood orange too – all make for highly enjoyable drinking." (Campbell Mattinson) It's also deliciously food-friendly, as Shanteh Wale writes in The South Australian Wine Guide 2026: "A lovely way to enjoy brunch, as this wine will work with fruit, fresh cheese and sheets of smoked salmon too. Drink now-2027. 91pts.”
Coriole Nero
This McLaren Vale Nero d'Avola from the talented team at Coriole has an incredible swag of awards including two Gold medals and four Trophies! In the glass: Medium density dark red. On the nose: Fresh red and dark cherry aromas with herb and violet perfume. On the palate: Medium weight yet quite intense with raspberry and redcurrant fruit freshness and lifted acidity. Very youthful, lively and Pinot-like with light, silken lingering tannins and savoury spice. Quite delicious!
Mitolo Jester Sangiovese Rose
One of the earliest and most condensed in history thanks largely to a dry and warm growing season. A very wet July was followed by some of the driest spring months on record, led to some great flavour and colour development and the resulting wines are packed with delicious ripe flavours.
Mitolo Jester Mclaren Vale Vermentino
Light bodied, bright and bursting with clean, clear flavours of lime and Granny Smith Apple. Mouthwatering acidity and savoury, pithy texture draw out the palate, making it an ideal foil to fresh seafood dishes.
Wolf Blass Grey Label Shiraz
The Wolf Blass Grey Label Shiraz is an opulent concentrated and complex style with plenty of spicy fruit and a dash of chocolate. True to the style that Wolf himself made from the very beginning of this now iconic brand, this is very tasty and enjoyable now yet it has the weight and complexity to improve with cellaring.
