Bondar Violet Hour Shiraz 2024
$30.00Andre Bondar and Selina Kelly approach McLaren Vale shiraz like young renovators who’ve just inherited an old mansion from an eccentric old aunt. What was once dark has had the light let in, abundant artifacts and ornate over-stuffing replaced with cleaner lines and more open space. It’s still the beautiful place it always was, but […]

Standish Wine Co The Standish 2021
$135.00Very deep colour and remarkably vivid considering the presumably long period in wood. There is bright purple towards the rim, fading from the deep blackness of the core, suggesting the inclusion of whole bunches. Intense aromatics, florals, black fruits, sweet and savoury spice. It’s not overly complex at present but the flavours are utterly captivating […]

Such an attack of freshness and tangy fruits.

Standish Wine Co The Relic 2022
$140.00The 2022 The Relic Shiraz-Viognier contains 2% Viognier skins, and this addition presents in this vintage as a core of raspberry and pomegranate. It is pure fruited and powerfully aromatic, as this cuvee always is. Interestingly, I am tasting this wine from two different glasses: one opened two days ago, one opened this morning. They […]

Bondar Rayner Vineyard Shiraz 2023
Original price was: $45.00.$39.00Current price is: $39.00.From the two oldest blocks on the Bondar-owned Rayner vineyard. The 1960 vines are on clay and limestone; the 1950s, being the major component, on deep sand with ironstone. Andre Bondar is never going to pursue rich styles, but this bottling usually has a little more supple generosity. That’s still true here, with a sultry […]

Curator Wine Co Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
$30.00Sourced from 5 plots from Curator’s own vineyards in Marananga. Unmistakably Barossa and it’s done so well.

A wine to buy a dozen bottles of, as there is […]

By Farr Shiraz 2024
$110.00This is always so, so good. It’s complex which I love, as so often this grape is one dimensional. There is more than a note of ripe fruit, there is graphite, black olives, it feels silky yet there is a note of ocean spray, a faint yet lovely salinity, then follows the spice. There is […]

Curator Seppeltsfield Shiraz 2022
$60.00From vines planted in the 1950’s, a single vineyard. 18% whole bunches, the rest whole berries, wild fermented and basket pressed to French oak, 15% new for 18 months.

Jasper Hill Georgia’s Paddock Shiraz 2024
$90.00Don’t be misled by cliches about the size and style of the Jasper Hill wines. Big though they are, they are fresh and balanced, with lovely natural acidity and waves of fruit and tannin. “Controlled full on”. Ferrous and autumnal notes reside with dark cherry, chocolate, lavender, potpourri, leather, polished wood and a compote of […]

Wild Duck Creek Sparkling Duck Shiraz NV
$80.00Exceptionally rare. A wine that I think embodies this estate like no other, showcasing their ability to make elegant, savoury and very complex wines, not just dark and massive monsters. Dark in colour, but less so than their still shiraz’s, and there is a greater emphasis on tertiary notes. The fruit profile is very complex, […]

Eisenstone McDonald Vineyard Marananga Shiraz 2020

A complex wine already: it […]

Adelina Shiraz 2022
$65.00Col McBryde told me that he liked to drink Pinot Noir and Nebbiolo whilst at home and their influence is clear. Expressive with kirsch, lavender, pink peppercorns, cassis, blackberry, cocoa, mint, fresh compost and a ferrous quality not always present in Clare shiraz. Medium bodied and mouthwatering, the fruit picked perfectly ripe. Very pure, deep […]

Eisenstone Greenock Shiraz 2021
$85.00Deep, bright red-purple colour; the bouquet likewise bright and fresh, initially with a high-note of freshly-sawn oak, which dissipated somewhat with time in the glass. The palate is bright, intense and elegantly weighted, just making the full-bodied weight category. It’s quite oaky but has good approachability, medium-long carry, and the tannins are ample and very […]

Craiglee Eadie Shiraz 2019
$48.00Funnily enough, when I tried this, I thought there was a dash of viognier, as it reminded me of Cote Rotie. Super fragrant with cured meats, fresh compost, smoke, Middle Eastern spices, black and red fruits and violets. Full bodied, succulent, masses of fruit and rich, oozing tannins. Very different from the estate shiraz and […]
