Steeple Block is the answer to Merlot-lovers prayers – a heavenly, well-rounded red from McLaren Vale.

Grape grower Natale Seghesio is known as 'il Poeta' ('the Poet') to his friends. Not only for his lyrical compositions (featured on the label), but also for the intensely flavoured produce of his vines, growing in the premium Piedmont hills. Talented winemaker Paolo Sartirano snaps up Natale's grapes every year, taking them to his family's cellar. Founded in 1871, this cellar is now 150 years old and today in the hands of the fourth generation. Paolo has crafted Il Poeta to be a truly poetical expression of the finest Nebbiolo. Three years ageing in oak ensures the fruit marries perfectly with silky, toasted spice character. Deeply flavoured and complex, the wine is best opened early and decanted. Serve in large glasses with hearty dishes.

One of the greats, Mumm Champagne is the perfect choice when celebrating. Combining Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay together has created a delicious Champagne with rich bubbles and scents of fresh fruit and caramel.

A bestselling Prosecco – now with a delicious pink twist. This Prosecco Rosato is crafted from Glera with a splash of Pinot Noir for that delicate blush. The grapes are sourced from vineyards in the sunny Euganean Hills (known locally as ‘happy hills’), just south of Padua in Italy’s Veneto region. Here, vines thrive in volcanic soils, giving the wine its crisp minerality and lively, fruity character. In the glass, expect a cascade of persistent bubbles with notes of wild strawberries, sweet summer fruits and a hint of citrus. It's light, refreshing and irresistibly moreish – a perfect match with chicken and seafood dishes, barbecues, or simply sipping solo.

Small parcels of the best quality fruit from across top regions in South Australia were chosen for this Reserve Durif – and it shows! It’s big, rich and mouthcoating, a ‘black red’ with some serious heft. Take that as a warning! The wine is named after a type of cattle (Hereford/ Shorthorn cross) bred for the harsh conditions of Australia’s far north, and has been crafted with steak in mind. Hints of black pepper and dark chocolate coat the palate with layers of rich red fruit and black cherry.

Savour an elegant yet vibrant, silky, hand-crafted Tempranillo Graciano blend – with all the quality you'd expect from the brilliant Bryan Currie, and terrific quality grapes from cool-climate Hilltops, a region Bryan Currie knows extremely well.

Just over 20 years ago, Claymore Wines was humbly established with small volumes of Grenache and Riesling from a single vineyard in Penwortham. Since then, the estate has grown to include additional varietals and 44 hectares across three additional vineyards in Watervale.
