Two Hands Ares Shiraz
Two Hands Ares Shiraz is a wine that showcases the very best parcel selection that Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz can get their 'Two Hands' on. A wonderfully powerful, rich and dense Shiraz from the Barossa Valley, the Ares Shiraz is matured in 100% French Oak, not a common practice in the Barossa. With the full-bodied nature of the wine, the extra bottle age makes the Ares Shiraz a perfect bottle to open now.
Wendouree Shiraz Mataro
Wendouree Shiraz Mataro is deep in colour, has blackberry and liquorice core and hugely famous tannins. The wines from Wendouree are honourable wines - highlighting the connectivity of winemaker, traditional wine-making practices, regional characteristics and vineyard personality.
Wendouree Shiraz Malbec
With plenty of blackberry, plum, mulberry and menthol-like fruit and fine, rusty, almost unyielding tannins, this is a strong, firm wine by Wendouree with plenty of lasting power. The Shiraz component derives from vineyard plots that include bush vine material. Parcels of very old vine Malbec bring further distinctiveness. The wine is vinified in open fermenters and matured for 12 months in new and used French oak.
Luigi Pira Barolo Marenca
On the palate it is very vigorous, rich in extracts, with lively and pleasant tannins that are rounded through a skilful use of wood. A powerful, tantalizing wine with a great ageing potential.
Bouchard Pere & Fils Monthelie
Bouchard Pere and Fils is the largest vineyard owner of grands crus and premiers crus in Burgundy. Great value burgundy!
Yering Station Reserve Shiraz Viognier

Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon - Cork
Penfolds Bin 407 Cabernet Sauvignon has always been a fine mark for great quality Australian Cabernet at a price that is still within reach. When you match that with Dan Murphy's ability to cellar this magnificent wine in our climate controlled cellars you have an opportunity to good to miss. While the 2007 was a difficult year for most in South Australia, Penfolds are in the lucky position of being able to select from a wide array of regions and vineyards to find the best Cabernet expression possible. A more medium weighted 407 than usual, this vintage show finesse and grace that will reward for a decade or more to come.

Paul Jaboulet Aîné Hermitage La Maison Bleue
"Replacing the Petit Chapelle cuvee and first made in 2015, the 2016 Hermitage La Maison Bleue is smoking good. Black fruits, charcoal, powdered rock, currants and chocolate notes all give way to a big, concentrated, impressively structures barrel sample that has tons of potential. I expect the tannin will have integrated by the time this is released, but a few years of bottle age still recommended." - Jeb Dunnuck
