Eisenstone McDonald Vineyard Marananga Shiraz 2020
$115.00Deep, dark and very bright purple-red colour, with a lovely detailed aroma of chocolate and herbs, both fresh and dried; floral nuances and red fruits, hints of spices and the palate is very full-bodied and generous with lashings of supple tannins, all in harmony with the great depth of fruit. A complex wine already: it […]

$80.00Hoffmann 1951 Dimchurch Home Old. Hoffmann 1888-1912 Dallwitz Old. 1,963 bottles produced.

Eisenstone Koonunga Shiraz 2021
$85.00Classic Eisenstone colour, it’s hard to imagine that it spent 18 months in oak.

Stonegarden Shiraz 2019
$80.00Could this be anything other than Barossa Shiraz? One of the world’s most evocative wines, and it doesn’t seem to matter who it’s made by, the strength of Barossa Valley character always shines through. Expressive is an understatement; you can smell it from a dozen yards away. A compote of black, blue and red fruits, […]

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. The wine is intense and piercing, taut and long, with ample tannins adding a touch of chew. A solid, concentrated wine that will benefit from a little more time in bottle. […]

Eisenstone McDonald Vineyard Marananga Shiraz 2021
$115.00Deep, dense colour with a powerful, concentrated bouquet of blood plum, blackberry and ironstone, hints of chocolate/mocha, the palate likewise concentrated and essency, with density and saturation, and the tannins are pervasive, mouth-coating and gently chewy. Quite a lot of oak, but it finds balance on palate in spite of its massive proportions. 96 Points […]

Agricola Kalimna Sands Shiraz 2022
$80.00Incredibly complex aromatics. The flavours seem to be ducking and weaving, always something different or vanished whenever I plunge my nose to the glass. Blackberry, sweet raspberry, blueberry, cassis, potpourri, Japanese soy sauce, Chinese five spice, dark chocolate, kalamata olive and fresh compost. For all that, the whole bunch element dissipates somewhat overtime, but of […]

Iggy Lyndoch Barossa Valley Syrah 2020
$75.00Deep red, almost crimson in colour. Dense aromas of plum, black pepper, black currant, nutmeg, and a touch of smokiness. Aiming for savouriness rather than fruitiness here and showcasing elegance rather than robustness. Supple, yet very much present tannins with fairly fresh acidity. Pleasant mouthfeel with a long, persistent finish. Drinking well now but will […]
