Gentle wine without the distraction of high brow oak, it persists through pure presence of varietal fruit and would be the first choice with chops or a crackling pork.

Rutherglen
|
Plush palate of dark berries, bitter chocolate, vegemite and earth, an assertive purpley wine that's content to be typecast for it's epic tannins, gripping your palate like the legs of a lithe and licentious, fruit smeared dancer.

Luscious red, richly layered like a torte of liquered fruits, shaves of chocolate, creamy oak and plum.

The bouquets here can't wait to get out of the bottle, a pandora's box (in a good way) of intoxicating fruit. A mouthful of winegums and jujube, raspberry, vanillan and spice.

Devastatingly proportioned, remarkable integration of oak with fruit and cherry acids, the hotness of it's perfume conjoined with ripe suggestions of plum and pepper, moccha and currant, cigarbox and soil.

Yarra Valley

Delivered with a healthy whack of alcohol, Diamond Valley's Cab/merlots invariably show true elegance, fully fleshed wines with suppleness and captivating complexity. The marked feature is the softness of the tannins, almost silky. Completely au naturel unfiltered and minimally handled, a sublime and delicious red that's developed into a virile beauty, long and seductive, a super food wine.

In unapologetically Claret styling, a fully rounded palate with red and purple, cocoa infused fruit, bramble, tobacco and puckering, cassis flavoured acids.

From Spain's
Catalonia Spain
|
A wine of exuberance, ripe with a sensuous background of meatyness and liqueured cherry, barnyard, olives and spice. The soft, seamless oak and tenacious tannins persist to the lingering finish, closing to impressions of leather and bramble, ribena and black olive.

McLaren Vale

Embraced by supple, aromatic oak, the peppery fruit accompanied by plum and boysenberry guides the tongue along to the mid palate where the sleek as boot polish tannins bring this heavenly, silken wine to a climax of festive pudding with dark cherries, coconut, prune and spice.

Floral aromas, cherries and subdued eucalypt, a bright and vibrant palate of ripe red and blue berries. Framed by cushioning tannins, it's an honest McLaren Vale Merlot, plummy, studded with currant and sweet vanilla oak, endowed by the most profound varietal definition.

Hanwood began the tradition of heart warming Shiraz wines from the sun drenched Riverina. A splendid drink that never dates, smooth tannins and controlled oak underpin a gazzette of bright, mouthfiilling fruits, plum, pepper, cherry and dates, before a clean, stylish finish.

Made to measure Cabernet with the most inspiring levels of black cherry, currant and cassis fruit characters, sweet clovey oak and soft simmering tannins. A legend of the Barossa and a must have with succulent red meats.
