Description Our staff get to try a lot of wines and you can see their top favourites popping up in staff orders and wines they recommend to customers again and again. Here are their latest premium faves – enjoy! Lake Breeze is always a top choice, the feisty Bullant a perennial favourite. Tahbilk’s Old Vines Cabernet Shiraz is a wine of the moment that’s really making waves, as is the Moss Brothers Fidium Margaret River Shiraz (RRP $55!). No surprises that The Black Pig Shiraz The Prize has made the cut – it’s amazing! The Willunga 100 Adelaide Hills Tempranillo and Marauding Vintners McLaren Vale Governor General Grenache are also providing endless delight. Try them for yourselves here.
With origins in Spain and southern France, where he still regularly distinguishes himself, this impressive figure first set foot here in 1840 and today also calls South Australia home. The Governor General (Grenache) is charming and powerful.
Established in 1860 and run continuously by the Purbrick family since 1925, Tahbilk is regarded as one of Victoria’s best producers of cool-climate Cabernet and Shiraz. You’ll find a delicious blend of blackberries, blueberries and vanilla here.
Salena Estate has become one of Australia’s largest family wine producers. Their fabulous Barossa Shiraz is abundant with ripe mulberry and plum with hints of liquorice, vanilla and spice.
An elegant and balanced expression of Margaret River Shiraz. The fruit shows good concentration, sweet red fruits and savoury spice. The oak adds layers of chocolate and mocha with soft round tannins that linger with good persistence.
"A succulent wine drinking well" says Huon Hooke. "This is impressive" writes Ned Goodwin in the Halliday Wine Companion, and we think that both writers are bag on!.
This thoroughly satisfying Cab Merlot blend from Lake Breeze's Greg Follett " punches above its weight" (Tony Love, Halliday Wine Companion).
