If this top estate’s usual customers found out we were selling this McLaren Vale Shiraz worth $65 a bottle for a mere $15.99 a bottle, they’d be feeling quite miffed!The powerful, plush Shiraz was destined for an overseas market, but when our wine buyer Ben tried it, he knew we had to get our hands on it. It’s a beautiful example of McLaren Vale Shiraz: a full-bodied palate of plush, vibrant red fruit with notes of mulberry, vanilla, spice and blackcurrant. Crafted by a talented family-run estate that has been growing premium wines in the region since 1973, their top wines sell for over $350 a bottle. It’s a blend of Italian winemaking heritage that they have traced back hundreds of years, with the uniquely Aussie character of McLaren Vale’s fertile soils. Valued at $780 for the dozen, you save a staggering $588. That’s 75% off!

The fruit was hand-picked in early April, the whole bunch pressed and allowed to briefly settle. This removes the heavy solids from the juice, whilst retaining many of the lighter solids that are a wonderful source of nutrient for the yeast. A small portion of the wine was fermented in large old oak vessels to add some further complexity to the wine. All of the juice was fermented by our natural wild yeasts and then racked off its lees at the end of fermentation. The wine was prepared for bottling without any further manipulation, other than filtration to retain the pristine character of our delicate Riesling. The nose of this wine shows lovely delicate floral aromatics that are typical of all Delatite Rieslings whilst the palate has layers of lemon rind and lemon blossom with fine talcy structure and a fresh acid finish. This wine can be drunk in its youth, but like all great Rieslings, it will age easily for ten years. Should be wonderful for up to twenty years, developing fabulous toasty honey characters, that Riesling is famous for.

With an impressive award-winning history, this densely flavoured, spicy champion comes from the Padró family cellar founded in 1898, in Spain’s Tarragona region. Combining concentrated, old bush vine (up to 70 years old) Monastrell (aka Mourvèdre or Mataro) from Tarragona with a little from warm Jumilla for extra richness, plus a portion of strawberry scented Tempranillo, this rich and spicy red is spot on with barbecued, lamb or beef, or try it with a range of Spanish tapas-inspired delicacies.
