Juliard Shiraz 2021
$38.00I asked one of the most influential winemaker’s in Beechworth recently what he thought Beechworth was best at and his answer surprised me: shiraz. Really!? Not nebbiolo, chardonnay, pinot noir, or sangiovese. Nup, trust me he said, shiraz. Beechworth’s shiraz is different. A sort of combination of Northern Rhone/Barossa/contemporary Heathcote. Juliard’s is medium to full […]

Craiglee Shiraz 2019
$60.00Firm classic Craiglee, a style that hasn’t wavered for at least the past 20 years. Blackberry, mulberry, cherry, blackcurrant, baking spices, tobacco, cigar box and bay leaf. Firm and savoury, still very young at this stage – you can smell, feel and taste the tannins. A nod to the great reds of Valpolicella, sweet, savoury, […]

Iggy Lyndoch Barossa Valley Syrah 2020
$75.00Classic Barossa, classic. Blackcurrant, mint, chocolate, glace cherries, ferrous, blackberry, maple and sweet raspberry. The oak is a little more evident here, and the fruit is fleshy and succulent. Pure and deep, compact and precise, and I wish I had decanted this before drinking. Very fine, with Nutella and savoury spice-laden tannins that tighten and […]

Eisenstone Mattschoss Vineyard Greenock Shiraz 2021
$115.00Deep bright colour and a tinge of sawn-oak among the aromas that include tar, graphite, various nutty and woodsy aromas, complemented by brown spices.

Kay Brothers Hillside Shiraz 2022
$55.00A selection of blocks off the estate, with varying soils; 18 months élevage in American and French oak. This has some classic appeal, with forward fruit and a familiar lick of oak, but there’s also such polish and relative transparency to it. The fruit, from a cooler year, has a buoyant, vivid feel, absent heaviness […]

Riggs & Wiggs Cote Vineyard Shiraz 2024
$50.00Made from dry-grown shiraz planted on a north-facing slope, with the grapes fermented in 130-year-old open vats from the original 1800s Côte d’Or winery. It has excellent energy and vibrancy, aided by the co-fermentation of 5% semillon. As well as fixing colour and providing lift, the semillon moonlights as a whole-bunch imposter, introducing an intriguing […]

Bondar Hope Springs Eternal Shiraz 2023
$74.00If I had to a serve a South Australian shiraz to a European, unversed in Australian wine, then this would be it. Fragrant, with a compote of brambly, red and blueberry fruit, bitter chocolate, Middle Eastern spices, fresh compost, licorice subtle oak. Lucious and sexy, with an intensity and lavishness of fruit that could only […]

For all its size, this is remarkably […]

Vanguardist Oeno Syrah 2024
$44.00The first release for a syrah in the Botanic Series, following on from the inaugural V label syrah in ’23. Tiny production; about 40% whole bunch. Not sure if one could pick a Vanguardist wine on style regardless of variety, but it feels so. That’s not to say there’s an imposition of making. Not at […]
