With juice from the classic Greenock Vineyard, the winemaker (and Master of Wine), specially selects a tiny portion of the best barrels to create a smooth but gutsy shiraz with astounding regional expressivity. A richly textured and full-bodied wine designed to drink beautifully in its youth but has the structure and fruit concentration to age for a further 10 years. Pure black and red fruit, vibrant acidic structure and pillowy, fine-grained tannins; all this coupled with a healthy maturation in brand new American oak barrels create a chocolatey, silky and wholly mouth-filling wine. Throw in a few years of age and you've got a well-integrated, classically Barossa shiraz with a long life ahead of it. Drinking now? Decant for 30 minutes for best results!

Guigal Côtes du Rhône has always been the beacon for quality in the southern Rhône. This is one Grenache blend you must get your hands on. An attractive nose of cinnamon, liquorice and wild herbs, the palate is medium-bodied and balanced with a spicy savoury mid-palate and clean finish.

The Shiraz grapes for The Struie come from old vines in the Barossa and Eden Valleys. The Eden component brings floral spicy aromas that are supported by more brooding notes of tar and chocolate from the Barossa. The palate is luscious and silky, and this is a Fine Wine favourite.

Joshua was Teusners very first wine. Named for co-founder Mick Pages first son, Joshua is a blend of mostly old vine Grenache, a good measure of Mataro and a dollop of Shiraz. Unoaked and released young, this wine carries with it the Teusner belief that the best Barossa wines are made when Grenache meets Shiraz meets Mataro.

Macaw Creek Reserve Shiraz Cabernet is a complex blend of Shiraz and Cabernet grapes, resulting in a dark red hued wine. The attractive and vibrant bouquet gives way to a rich and fresh palate brimming with flavours of choc mint and ripe blackberry fruit coupled with vanillin and mocha oak notes. The fine and firm tannins fuse with these intense flavours to end in a delicate and persistent finish. Drink this full-bodied Shiraz Cabernet blend with barbequed rib eye or tomahawk steak to discover its full flavour potential.

The nose of this wine exhibits mocha, blackberry and pepper aromas. The complex palate is filled with dark chocolate notes.
