Great value Shiraz that plays all the blackberry, liquorice classics with elegance. There’s also trademark sage, black fruits and sweet spice – it’s traditional at it’s best. Sometimes you just wanna play The Stones and wear Levis.

Kaesler Reach For The Sky Shiraz 2021

Torn sage, ripe mulberry and berries, here’s a full-blooded Shiraz, vibrant and plush with a friendly (juicy) side. Ticks all the Shiraz boxes without ever scaring anyone off – in other words, balanced.

Curator Wine Co Hamlets Shiraz 2023

Classic Barossa Shiraz, right down to the salt, sage and poached plums. This feels like finally whipping off your shoes and putting your feet up after a big day on the tools. A great wine to buy in bulk and have on hand, and solid gift when you don’t know what they love.

Lights Valley Shiraz 2021

From the pulpy, leesy texture to the honeyed richness that pours with just enough oxidative edge to impress a Jura mate. It’s got the goods when it comes to the savoury matters too, and will be oh so perfect with fish curries.

Oria-Riff Old Vine Semillon 2023

Think strawberries, but with some savoury sage and soft tannins to keep it all light and refreshing, but the structure’s there so every sip will invite a little thought, as well as tasty enjoyment.

Tim Smith Bugalugs Grenache 2022

Grab one for a raspberry-and-violet-filled night to pair with a little doof, or boogie, or the coach and packet of chips. Yes, our staff chip-pair.

Smallfry Eclectik Violet Grenache Cinsault 2023

Sourced from both family-owned and grower vineyards throughout the Barossa, including some that are the oldest in the region, this Grenache shows a real sense of place. In the glass, ripe strawberry and raspberry coulis are complemented by a little sage, saltbush and some lovely sandy tannins tightening it up before the nice and savoury finish.

Corryton Burge Grenache 2022

There’s also a solider of perfectly toasted raisin bread, and hints of pepper. As you’ve already inferred, it’s a wine that offers up a new note/layer with every sip, on top of what you’ve already identified and loved.

Michael Hall Sang de Pigeon Shiraz 2022

There's a beautiful generosity here without dipping into the sweet and jammy territory, with plenty of black spice in the glass balancing out the fruit, with some boysenberry conserve and a touch of bitter cocoa on the finish. Delish.

Crate Shiraz 2021

An amazing Shiraz that’s excellent in every way. Classic, generous and earthy, this serves up layers of stewed plum and spicy oak. A clean split of whole bunch, and destemmed fruit.
