16 Little Black Pigs Rosé
There's always fun to be had when a member of the Pig family comes calling. This delicious 'cousin' is a succulent pink as good on the lips and tongue as it is on the eye. Lovely to look at, great aromas of ripe Summer fruits, and every bit as satisfying on the palate. Sip on its own, with fresh prawns or even a fresh fruit salad. It's delicious.
Zonte's Footstep Chocolate Factory Mclaren Vale Shiraz
Entry: Velvety and plush and fragrant rich blackberrycherry fruits. Some tangy cedar and lingering cigar box characters. Middle Palate: Juicy round black cherry fruits, tempered with the soft idiosyncratic "milk chocolate" McLaren Vale Shiraz sweetness and roundness. After Palate: Lashings of trademark milk chocolate with blackberries and dark-fleshed plums and spice with velvety, smooth tannins. Finish: Juicy blackberry and mocha notes intertwined with signature lush McLaren Vale tannins. It's like taking a big mouthful of Black Forest cake.
The Black Pig McLaren Vale Shiraz
Sourced from perfectly ripe Shiraz grapes from plots across the region, creating the beautifully formed fruit we've come to expect from this varietal. Oozing blackberry and bramble components from nose to tail, soft and silky to the touch. Fire up the BBQ - you've found the perfect wine match.
The Great Bonza Reserve Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon
It's made by the talented John Quarisa, who has enjoyed a “distinguished career as a winemaker spanning over 20 years” (Halliday). John likes his wines to express big personality and juicy fruit and value for money – he’s certainly achieved that here! Ripe and round blackberries conspire with flavours of plum and cinnamon spice. On the palate, rich red berries and brewed coffee make for a very appealing wine.
The Black Pig Reserve McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon
McLaren Vale is home to some of Australia's biggest reds and here's a prize example from the bestselling 'Black Pig' - a cassis-rich Cabernet with wall-to-wall black cherry and bramble tones and a delicious lick of menthol.
McPherson XV Pure
Castillo de Epifanía Crianza Rioja Alta
Enjoy a silky Rioja Crianza with five years’ age, from the premium Alta region. In the most northwesterly corner of Rioja, the flatter land starts rising up into soaring mountains. It's here you'll find the start of the Rioja Alta vineyards – a fine enclave of Spain’s most famous red wine region . The extra altitude freshens as well as ripens grapes slowly to full flavoured perfection. Since most Riojas blend grapes from across the region, and the most famous bodegas like to blend Alta grapes into their finest wines, you almost never see Rioja Alta on labels. In fact, there are only two villages permitted to add it. In one you'll find Juan Antonio Leza’s family winery, the cellar behind Castillo de Epifanía Crianza Every grape comes from their sleepy Rioja Alta village. This is Juan’s first Castillo de Epifanía Crianza – made from high-grown handpicked Tempranillo grapes grown in Alta’s cool Najerilla Valley. Aged in French and American oak barriques for a full 12 months, and with five years of maturity, the superb 2021 vintage is drinking beautifully. With a perfect balance of red berry fruit, spice, subtle vanilla oak and a delightful juicy freshness, this is lovely on its own and delicious with grilled meats or tasty tapas.

Del Monte Shiraz Grenache 2021 is a stunner. From first sniff to its long satisfying finish, it’s hugely appealing, with fresh plummy Shiraz and raspberry-edged Grenache shot through with attractive spice and approachable tannins.

Six Word Durif
Black fruit, sweet spice and liquorice make wonderful bedfellows to a blanket of seamlessly integrated tannins. The lengthy flavours lead to a dreamily long finish where vibrant soft fruit makes itself known. Best enjoyed with the classic, rich braised meat of an oxtail stew with a side of crusty bread.
