Spinifex Rose 2019
Add to cart$24.00in any six
$27.00 per single bottle
Barossa rose made with grenache, mataro and cinsault. Excellent rose. High drinkability, fair amount of texture, fruitiness, savouriness and more. Complex but not at the expense of straight-out more-ishness. Orange oil and redcurrant, pomegranate and woodspice. Such good mouthfeel, such good flavour. 94 points – Campbell Mattinson, The Winefront Click here for our full Spinifex […]

Spinifex Syrah 2018
$26.00in any six
$28.00 per single bottle
Spinifex’s 2018 Syrah is Pete Schell’s higher-toned, more linear, red fruited and floral expression of the Barossa. It’s bursting with beautifully sculpted, racy, red-and-blackberry-fruit. A lifted rosehip note and some inky depths on the driven finish. Gets more and more perfumed and lively with air, it’s another terrific effort from one of Australia’s most gifted […]

Spinifex Papillon 2019
Add to cart$27.00in any six
$31.00 per single bottle
Pete Schell’s Papillon, ‘the butterfly’, was one of the first of the modern Barossa wines to show that ripeness and depth of flavour needn’t come at the expense of freshness and vineyard clarity. The 2019 remains at the very top of its game. Deliciously crunchy texture, cleansing acidity and savoury grip. All this is somehow […]

Spinifex Syrah 2019
Add to cart$27.00in any six
$31.00 per single bottle
Spinifex’s Syrah is Pete Schell’s take on a leaner, higher-toned expression of his adopted region. To this end, Schell sources from generally higher, cooler sites, where earlier harvesting gives wines with bright fruit expression and a textural freshness. The wine, naturally fermented with a judicious use of whole clusters (on average 30%) in a combination […]

Garagiste Le Stagiaire Pinot Gris 2018
Add to cart$29.00in any six
$32.00 per single bottle
“Rich, spicy custard apple, almost tarte-tartin, plus a yeasty-leesy note. Quite spicy on the palate too; some light, white oak flavours from 6 months in barrel, plus a piercing citrus acidity and crunchy phenolics. Complex, idiosyncratic and challenging. Extra points for that.” 95 Points, Halliday Wine Companion 2020 Made in a pure-fruited, medium-bodied style […]

$32.00 per single bottle
The mature (est. 1956) vineyard in Eden’s Flaxman Valley is around 4-hectares planted roughly to one-third Riesling and two-thirds Shiraz.

Garagiste Le Stagiaire Pinot Noir 2018
Add to cart$29.00in any six
$32.00 per single bottle
Wow, this is a great pinot noir. Has an almost electric pulse. Bright, cranberry and pomegranate fruit, taut and fresh, a web of charry-reductive tannins but so judiciously found. Sinew and pucker, wine drawn long, it’s one for the very elemental and savoury pinot lovers. Complex and compelling wine. 94 points – Mike Bennie, The […]

2018 welcomes a trio of cameo appearances from Garagiste under the increasingly impressive Le Stagiaire label.

$35.00 per single bottle
The 2018 Spinifex Riesling has real intensity, complexity and texture – characteristics of the vineyard’s concentrated, low yield fruit. This is a million miles away from the limey, stereotypical Australian Riesling. Instead you get preserved lemon, tonic water and notes of white peppery spice. There’s flesh but also plenty of acid and a twist of […]

Deep crimson-purple. Clearly the best of the three very good ’16 Spinifex Shirazs, all making light of a vintage that had a few challenges, and also reflecting the old vines. It effortlessly moves along a bouquet and palate that are supremely elegant, complexity so deeply seated and balanced you barely notice it until the time […]
