d’Arenberg The Galvo Garage Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Cabernet Franc
The 2018 d’Arenberg The Galvo Garage Cabernet Merlot Cab Franc from McLaren Vale is a true gem from one of South Australia’s most esteemed wineries. With a deep ruby colour and a rich, complex bouquet of dark berries, vanilla, and cedar, this wine is a feast for the senses. On the palate, flavours of blackcurrant, plum, and spice are balanced by smooth tannins and a hint of oak. The addition of Cabernet Franc adds a touch of elegance and depth to the blend. This vintage is drinking beautifully now but also has the potential for further ageing. Pair it with a hearty beef dish or enjoy on its own to fully appreciate its full-bodied and velvety smooth texture. A true masterpiece from d’Arenberg, this wine is a must-try for any serious wine lover.
Sherrah Shiraz
d'Arenberg The High Trellis Cabernet Sauvignon
Geoff Merrill Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
Wirra Wirra Single Vineyard Hickinbotham Cabernet Sauvignon
Olivers Taranga Chica Mencia Rose
Grans musk lollies follow through on the palate, although it is a dry rose. The palate is all watermelon rind and flowers, with some fine, creamy tannins and zesty dry lemon finish. Like eating a watermelon right down to the white bits this rose is refreshing as! Delicious with cured meats, or try with chocolatey desserts for a taste sensation.
Smidge "La Grenouille" Cabernet Sauvignon
Pirramimma Shiraz
Pirramimma Shiraz is full-fruited and powerful, with sweet plum and mocha along with cinnamon notes and dark chocolate which are all typical regional characters of McLaren Vale.
Oliver's Taranga Vineyards Shiraz
Oliver's Taranga have a long and distinguished history in the McLaren Vale and are custodians of some of the premier vineyard land in the region. Corrina Wright is now the winemaking brain behind this progressive winery and her Shiraz is a modern masterstroke. Smoke and bacon on the nose with sweet and savoury tones. Soft fruit flavours luscious mouth feel and great length to this wine. Delicious.
Willunga 100 Shiraz Viognier
Willunga 100 was born out of the dream and vision of 3 industry icons, David Gleave MW, Michael Hill-Smith MW and John Ratcliffe to produce region specific wines that deliver true Australian value and quality. '100' is a old term used to nominate parcels of important land that had earned their place on the map. The fruit for this award winning Shiraz Viognier comes from the area once known as Willunga 100. A supremely structured Shiraz with juicy, brambly fruit accompanied by an integrated peachiness with delicious length.
