Description Easter's on the way, and with celebrations with family and friends in mind, here's an outstanding collection of great Aussie reds ideal to bring to any dining table and satisfyingly smooth enough to keep sipping once the plates are empty. There's lavish Shiraz from the Barossa Valley and Langhorne Creek's exceptional Lake Breeze, succulent Adelaide Hills Tempranillo and lip-smacking Grenache, both great with lamb, and two top drawer Cabernets from McLaren Vale and WA's remote Great Southern region. Kick things off with a glass of McPherson's Bubbly Personality, an Aussie sparkling sure to delight, and there are two elegant stemless glasses in the mix too.
From Lake Breeze, Halliday Wine Companion's 'Best Value Winery of the Year 2022', the Bullant Shiraz is their entry-level offering but it delivers "extraordinary value" (Tony Love, Halliday Wine Companion).
A dark, inky Barossa beast with ripe aromas of smoky blackberry, fruitcake, toasty oak and dark chocolate… a bigger, bolder and more mouthcoating version of the bestselling Patronus. Get out your biggest glasses for this outstanding Reserve Shiraz!
Made with classy cool climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay fruit from Victoria's Goulburn Valley and Strathbogie Ranges, this delicious Sparkling from the McPherson family impresses with its elegance and flavour.
The Winemakers Selection offers quality in every glass you pour, because it's the winemakers who oversee all of life's best drinking experiences - from vineyard, to barrel, to the bottle in your hand.
5 Red Star Halliday-rated Byron & Harold have crafted a glorious Cabernet Sauvignon rich with forest fruits, blackcurrant, plum and bay leaf with dusty dark chocolate tannins. Great Southern reds like this offer exceptional value.
Alex Russell is turning out some exceptional wines under his Russell & Suitor label. The reds are juicy, delicious and quite moreish, much like the Franca's Vineyard Grenache.
Juicy, smooth and oh-so-easy to drink, this gold-medal, 94pt Colab & Bloom Adelaide Hills Tempranillo smells of violets, ripe cherry and vanilla. On the palate there are nuances of dusty earth, rich red fruits, vanilla and sun-baked leather.
These two elegant yet practical stemless glasses are perfect for everyday drinking and enjoyment.
