    2021 Mr Riggs The Chap Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon
    South Australia, AUSTRALIA
    $110. 00
    Bottle
    $1320.00 Dozen
    Cellar: Drink now - 15 Years (2026-2041)
    ABV: 14.5%
    Closure: Diam Cork

    A rich, powerful blend that maintains a sense of refinement and structure.

    Personally tailored by Mr Riggs this high end offering comes appropriately dressed in a dark blue bound presentation box that even smells like a new suit! Fruit is sourced from Ben’s own Piebald Gully vineyard in McLaren Vale whilst the Coonawarra Cabernet component comes from Ey vineyards. A blend of 55% Shiraz and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon maturation took place in a mixture of French (80%) and American (20%) oak, of which 35% was new, for a period of 22 months.
    Magnificent colour featuring a dense inky black heart and a very deep dark red black hue. Potent aromas of ripe blackberry, liquorice and blackcurrant waft through the nostrils complimented by some earthy dark chocolate, vanillin cedar, tobacco and spice notes. Concentrated yet refined, layered across the expansive palate are rich blackberry, liquorice and blackcurrant fruits. Plush yet dusty feel with spicy vanillin cedar, subtle earthy dark chocolate, tobacco and mint characters forming the undercard. Displaying outstanding power, sturdily built tannins provide solid structure across the long, deeply fruited yet quite elegant finish.
    Drink over the next 10-15 years.

    This is both powerful and graceful, showcasing a rich array of dark fruits, smoked game, assorted nuts, and mocha notes on the nose. On the palate, it offers a superbly weighted experience with seductive complexity and a velvety texture. The finish is impressively long and satisfying. Wonderfully harmonious and seamless, with outstanding depth and opulence. A blend of grapes from McLaren Vale & Coonawarra. At its best: now to 2041.

    Deep garnet in colour with a dense crimson core. The nose is layered and expressive, opening with blackcurrant, dark plum and blackberry, interwoven with cedar, bay leaf and subtle dark chocolate. Fine oak integration adds polish without overshadowing the fruit.

    Medium to full-bodied, the palate reveals a seamless marriage of ripe McLaren Vale fruit and the structural finesse of Coonawarra Cabernet. Cassis and black cherry are framed by fine, firm tannins and balanced acidity. A gentle herbaceous lift and subtle spice carry through to a long, structured finish with impressive persistence.
    A classic Australian blend showing regional harmony, confident structure and varietal integrity.

    Closure: Cork

    Named after the estate’s family matriarch, this Nicks Secret is sourced from the best blocks and only produced in top years. Presented in a monumentally sized bottle to match its decadent contents, everything about this wine oozes pure class. Maturation took place in American oak barrels (100% new).

    A glorious, seductive bombshell of a wine at a third of it’s normal price.

    Dense pitch black core with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Intoxicating scents of dark plum, liquorice, dark chocolate and toasty vanillin oak engulf the nostrils followed by some earthy mocha and spice notes. Rich, silky and exceptionally concentrated, the full bodied palate is caressed by layers of lavish dark plum, liquorice and dark chocolate flavours which carry a smooth, voluptuous feel. Detailed across the back half are notions of vanillin oak, earthy mocha and subtle spice. Boasting magnificent power and depth it has seamlessly integrated cashmere like tannins and a plush, expansive finish that’s super long.
    Outstanding drinking over the next 4-5 years.

    This comes off four blocks in the Barossa, and is made in years that are considered worthy. In this case, it’s very worthy. Deep purply-red colors. The aroma is immediately captivating with its dark chocolatey fruits, a little mocha, and a touch of cedar. Engaging stuff. And then the palate starts to deliver with its dark plummy richness, a little bit of that licorice nuance and some bright fruity blackberry characters. The oak and tannins have been expertly managed ensuring the wine is perfectly balanced to suit drinking now if you wish, but with the obvious characters to support extended cellaring. Drink 2026-2046.

    This is immensely appealing on the nose, showing dark fruit richness, vanilla, star anise, clove, and toasty oak characters with a touch of dark cocoa. The concentrated palate exhibits terrific depth and power, wonderfully framed by velvety texture and beautifully melded tannins. Opulent and plush with sophistication, making it hugely appealing. At its best: now to 2038.

    A rich, super juicy Grenache.

    Dark red core with black toned edges and a red hue. Potent dark raspberry, ripe dark cherry and liquorice scents waft out of the glass trailed by subtle dried clove, vanillin spice, crushed rock and peppered herb notes.

    An excellent wine from the 2021 vintage, which in Mount Barker delivered beautiful cool climate fruit with richness, concentration and supreme balance. Classic varietal characters of blackcurrant and dark plum with a touch of black cherry open on the nose, followed by a supple palate with a structural core contributing to its long finish. It's the most stylish expression of Mount Barker cabernet.

    You’re getting a fair bang for your buck with this Macedon Pinot Noir. Shows a compelling mix of red fruits with a subtle truffle-oil nuance and a damp earthen-floor infusion. Medium-bodied but finely structured, with chalky tannins, lightly applied oak, and plenty of fruit generosity. Drinking beautifully now, though a little more time in the cellar will allow the fruit characters to develop even more. Drink 2025-2032.

    Ray Jordan – WinePilot.com

    I’m not sure I’ve tried a Williams Crossing Pinot Noir before. This is raised in oak that’s all older then three years of age.
    It’s a savoury style of Pinot Noir with dark cherry, redcurrant, pastrami and dried twigs, only medium-bodied, with good density of flavour, cool balanced acidity, a tight sort of graphite and dusty feel to tannin, gentle sappiness, and fine length. It has complexity and it drinks well. Nice.

    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $129. 99
    Bottle
    $1559.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    The first release in a new series exclusive to global travel retail. Glenlivet's Groundbreaker Collection aims to "marry original perspectives through travel experiences" with Chapter One in the series selectively finished in red wine casks - a first for the distillery. The packaging was made in collaboration with Red Hong Yi, a Malaysian-Chinese contemporary artist who used traditional Chinese red pigments, reflected in the hue of the red-wine-finished whisky. Initially matured in European and American oak, a portion of the liquid was then finished in charred American oak and European red wine casks. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... the nose has red currant, glacé cherry, Szechuan peppercorn, Red Vines, and apple. Gently paced with subtle flavors of red apple, fudge sweetness, damson, more Red Vines, and a tingle of pepper.

    Bottle
    $1199.88 Dozen
    ABV: 43%

    Comes with a bonus branded Glencairn Glass.

    Glengoyne uses only unpeated malted barley i.e. barley which is air dried rather than dried under a peat fire. The newly packaged twelve year old expression (as opposed to the 12 year old cask strength) is said to have a high proportion of Sherry casks involved in the maturation.

    Other reviews... The nose has a curiously intimate feel, but the tasting experience is a wonderful surprise. 91.5 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2025-26

    2010 bottling tasted... Straw / gold colour with very pale straw hue. The nose reveals subtle notes of vanilla, clove and cinnamon with an apple / pear like fruitiness, then sweeter cereal notes. The warm palate entry reveals pear, biscuit and grain flavours. Excellent concentration and texture. Subtle yet lasting aftertaste of cereals and liquorice strap. A perfect session whisky and a little bit more besides! 43% Alc./Vol.

    Douglas Laing's The Gauldrons Eclipse Cask Strength Blended Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $119. 99
    Bottle
    $1439.88 Dozen
    ABV: 52.9%

    Douglas Laing’s The Gauldrons represents the Campbeltown region through a range of blended malts. The exact make-up is known only to the Laings, but an educated guess says they're heavy on Glen Scotia, simply because of how scarce Springbank and Kilkerran are. This limited edition is unusual for being finished in Orange Wine Casks, sourced from the cellars of Jerez de la Frontera in Southern Spain. Besides walnuts, honey, ginger and toasted almonds, the secondary maturation is reported to leave traces of tangy orange with an almost otherworldy edge. 3000 bottles were produced at 52.9% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Nose: Immediate hints of orange marmalade, touches of cough syrup, jammy apricots and some light notes of marzipan. There’s a thin layer of cereals lingering, as well as green olives and some ozone, but then we veer into the likes of cherry-flavoured candy canes also. Taste: A mixture of roasted peanuts, char and liquorice with a hint of sourdough. Also honeyed influences, orange pith, nectarines and a very gentle smokiness with soft mineral notes. Water highlights the distillates oiliness and enhances the stone fruits. Finish: Medium length. Sweet spices with barley husks and citrus zest. Quite cereal-forward there in the end. A whisky with character, The Gauldrons does a good job representing the Campbeltown region. There’s a funkiness combined with coastal elements, but also a pleasant sweetness to bring balance. It seems to have improved compared to how I remember it. The Gauldrons Eclipse loses some of its Campbeltown-esque qualities, outshined by the orange wine finish, presumably. However, it gains a distinct fruitiness – peels and stone – that adds a new layer. - wordsofwhisky.com

    Concentrated and gorgeously rounded with fresh acidity and a long, lusciously fruited finish.

    After visiting the Alsace region in the late 1990’s where Riesling and Pinot Gris grow side by side, it seemed logical to Tim Adams that if Clare Valley had the conditions to produce world class Rieslings, it could also make quality Pinot Gris. The first vines were subsequently planted in the Tim Adams Ladera vineyard and today their Pinot Gris is one of the country's most popular.
    Brilliant pale straw to straw colour with a watery hue. Intense pear, ripe red apple and quince aromas are trailed by notes of musk and spice. Gorgeously rounded and showing excellent concentration, the palate is awash with juicy pear and red apple fruits. Some quince, delicate musk and spice elements are also present. Fresh acidity with a long, lusciously fruited finish.

    The original Timorous Beastie, immortalised in Robert Burns’ famous Scots poem “To a Mouse” was a timid, little field creature.

Also bottled without chill filtration at 46.8% for maximum flavour.

It floats in the mouth, dispensing flavors of sweet apple, custard, tangy tangerine, hard candies, green plum, marshmallow, and white pepper. Delicious and accomplished, but there’s an overlap here: it feels like the NAS version had a birthday, rather than the arrival of a new member of the family. 86 points - whiskyadvocate.com, reviewed by: Jonny McCormick 2018

    ...[Batch 1 tasted] Tried the NAS (WF 85), tried the 18 (WF 86), tried the 21 (WF 89) and tried the 40 (WF 91) but never the 10. Colour: white wine. Nose: fresh as a daisy, so floral, subtle, with green melons, yellow peaches, fresh hazelnuts, angelica, rhubarb, and just a drop of vanilla essence. Mouth: fresh and really full of pears, of all kinds. Williams first, naturally. Hints of Gueuze, hops, and tangerines. It’s a pretty light and fresh style, perhaps a little timorous indeed. Some sides remind me of Glenkinchie. Finish: short to medium, a tad ale-y. Hints of asparagus in the aftertaste. Comments: perhaps a little shier than its compadres? But once again, it is a very nice composition. And WF’s registered mouser, Aston the Scottish fold cat, says he loves the label. 83 points - whiskyfun.com

    $1319.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    In 2018, Douglas Laing rebranded its 'Rock Oyster' whiskies to 'Rock Island'. One report suggests it was because oysters have a negative connotation for some people. The Laings were concerned it put some consumers off. Besides the label, we can assume nothing has changed in terms of the liquid inside the bottle which includes malts from Orkney, Arran, Jura and Islay. The ten year old was released in July 2019 and was followed by Rock Island 21 Year Old (a more limited bottling). 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Notes from the producers... Nose: The nose is initially barley-rich and buttery, developing to wave-soaked rocks with gentle peat smoke and citrus fruits. Palate: The palate bursts with a beachy quality – sea spray, black pepper and damp ash. Finish: The finish goes on and on, with wave after wave of wood embers, orange peel and gentle spice.

    Whipper Snapper Upshot Bandit Australian Whiskey (700ml)

    $89. 99
    Bottle
    $1079.88 Dozen
    ABV: 43%

    Other reviews... Upshot Bandit is the lower-cost sibling to the original Upshot corn whisky from Whipper Snapper Distillery in Perth. Also a single cask bottling at 43% and otherwise produced in the same way as Upshot Original (from a corn-based recipe that also includes barley and wheat, matured in virgin American oak casks), my assumption is that the $20 price difference comes down to a slightly lower age, or perhaps it’s just a matter of cask selection. Slightly more volatile and showing less integration of oak and spirit on the nose than its older sibling; there’s definitely more grain and less wood here. But the lively, light, sweet and very easy-drinking palate shows careful distillation and still offers a lot of appeal for those who want whisky for drinking, not thinking. 87 points - Fred Siggins, winecompanion.com

    $139. 99
    Bottle
    $1679.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    For the travel retail channel, this 11-year-old highlights Glenfarclas’ distillery character, 'framed' rather than 'shaped' by predominant sherry cask maturation - meaning it's not intended as a 'sherry bomb', so the oak influence won't be heavy. Expect a casual dram offering notes of dried fruits, warm malt and gentle spices, followed by a crisp, dry finish. 46% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews...The Glenfarclas 11 is a very successful, well-rounded whisky. Naturally sherry-forward, but certainly not overpowering. It's a very drinkable (thankfully it's a 1-liter bottle!), delicious, smooth whisky. Well-rounded, not too sweet, and not too spicy. Great for simply enjoying with friends. Essentially, it's what the 12-year-old should be, but sadly hasn't been lately. - whiskybase.com

    "...This is an impressive whisky from Glenfarclas. They are known for their use of ex-sherry casks, ex-Oloroso in particular, but this is not a massive ‘sherry monster’ or ‘sherry bomb’ of a whisky. Instead it is superbly well balanced and multi dimensional. This makes is a nice Autumnal whisky with the warming spices on top of the sweet and fruity characteristics. This 11 Years Old expression offers great value for money, especially given the quality of the liquid and reputation of Glenfarclas. Definitely one to consider picking up when next travelling through an airport. That’s what we did …" - whiskyforeveryone.com

    "A very successful Glenfarclas bottling with the typical sherry profile. The 16 years bring a lovely spiciness from the wood that harmonizes beautifully with the sherry aromas. It's not an overpowering sherry bomb, but rather shines with a very well-balanced sherry profile. After some weaker bottlings in recent years, Glenfarclas seems to be getting back on track with the Travel Retail Exclusive 11 and 16 year old releases. Both are highly recommended and offer wonderfully balanced sherry malts." - whiskybase.com

    "A remarkably successful sherry whisky that impresses with its abundance of fruit, sweetness, and depth. The evolution in the glass is particularly captivating: from slightly tart red berries to dark fruits and cherries. The combination of berries, chocolate, leather, and the subtle espresso notes in the finish is perfectly harmonious and leaves you wanting another sip. For a whisky at 46% ABV, it delivers a surprising amount of intensity and exhibits precisely the qualities that fans of sherry cask maturation appreciate in a good Glenfarclas." - whiskybase.com

    1967 The Last Drop Glen Garioch 47 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - Plus 50ml bottle
    Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $9999. 00
    Bottle
    $119988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 45.4%

    Note: Product comes from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.

    The Last Drop was founded by three industry veterans who set out to track down extraordinary old stocks in forgotten cellars in order to bring whiskies of both great age and exceptional quality to the market. What can only be described as an obsession, they've committed a significant amount of time and energy scouring Scotland for buried treasure.

    This bottling represents The Last Drop's first-ever single malt. And they managed to pick a very old distillery with a detailed history of producing high-quality malt: Glen Garioch. From a time when they were making a sizable ratio of peated whisky, they were also floor malting, a practise mostly out of fashion. Another unusual trait was that this whisky spent 47 years in a reportedly “bourbon-style remade hogshead cask.”, which was unusual for the time. The results seem to speak for themselves, with many reviewers describing a thick, oily mouthfeel with tannic but fresh, sweet fruit and an iodine-laden smoky overlay. The word complex is used with abandon. No real surprise considering how long and well this whisky has been sitting. Exceptionally rare. 45.4% Alc./Vol.

    Tasting notes from one of the Last Drop trio, Andrew Rankin... This magnificent malt has matured with elegance. Heady notes of cognac-soaked fruitcake, marzipan and icing are balanced with ripe apricot and a hit of peaty smokiness, softening to a delicious vanilla and honey nectar.

    First launched in 2016, The Macallan Double Cask Collection sits between the Sherry Oak Collection and Colour Collection. With various expressions released annually, the style here is slightly sweeter than other Macallans due to the influence of sherry-seasoned European and American oak maturation. Says Master Whisky Maker, Kirsteen Campbell, "This harmonious combination offers the unmistakable sweetness of vanilla and fresh fruits from the American oak, balanced with soft spices and dried fruits from the European oak. Increasing in complexity with age, discerning palates will appreciate the smooth and creamy whiskies of this collection.” 43% Alc./Vol.

    Given Tormore has mostly been a workhorse for blends, official bottlings didn't exist until 2004. Subsequent releases under Pernod Ricard never gained wide recognition, and the void has only been filled by independent offerings. In June 2022, Elixir Distillers (the company behind a slew of UK brands such as Port Askaig and Elements of Islay) took over Tormore distillery from the corporate giant. New bottlings have followed; however, this much-overlooked distillery will still be a novelty for most. Douglas Laing filled 276 bottles from single refill hogshead DL17247 at 41.6% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... The nose is attractively round and full of buttered burnt toast and milky cereal hues. On the palate detect butterscotch, malt, appealing spices and gentle lemon citric tones. That big malt impact is still therre on the finish, plus bourbon based vanilla flavours.

    "...quite sublime." - whiskyfun.com

    Douglas Laing's new, luxury packaging for their 'Black Series' employs monochromatic colours complemented by gold foil details. Each bottle is hand-filled and features an embossed metallised label, glass stopper and the handwritten signatures of Fred and Cara Laing. Black moleskin cases carry a certificate of authenticity. Seldom on the market nowadays, this should be a no-brainer for Clynelish fans and savvy collectors. It's also a tiny outturn, with a mere 129 bottles decanted from a refill hogshead at 47.5% Alc./Vol. Non-chill-filtered.

    Other reviews... Colour: pale gold. Nose: we have a Clynelish that is much softer, much more on ripe banana, very gentle spices, old ointments, a very old bottle of Verveine du Velay, Arquebuse (has anyone tasted Arquebuse?) followed by very light tobacco, a bit of hay, even straw, and very ripe mirabelles. Not extremely typical, perhaps, but absolutely charming. Palate: it could be another distillery, I wonder if it was around this time that Clynelish had thoroughly cleaned its receivers and thus eradicated all the 'gunge' that gives the distillate its proverbial waxy side. In any case, even if it could be another distillery, it's a tremendous malt, soft, complex, very elegant, with honey rather than beeswax, almond paste, very ripe apples and pears, serviceberry liqueur... All this is really very pretty. Finish: medium length, refined, more on almonds and pistachios. Also reminiscent of a very high-quality amaro. A salty hint at the very end of the finish. Comments: quite sublime. I forgot to tell you that the citrus comes back for a second encore on your palate after two or three minutes. 89 points - whiskyfun.com

    Ron Barceló was founded by Julian Barceló, a Spanish émigré born in Mallorca. He founded the company in 1930 under the name Barceló & Co in Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, having arrived in the country in 1929. It did not take long for the Barcelo brand to became an essential reference amongst local rum brands, growing into one of the biggest and most prestigious Dominican Companies. During the 1980s, Ron Barceló became the most popular rum in the Dominican Republic. Exports grew and the company began distribution outside of the Caribbean and America. In 1992, the company began an international campaign and, by 1994, Ron Barceló was exported to over 10 countries, with Spain as its biggest consumer. It's currently exported to over 50 countries.

    Obtained from fresh juice and aged for 4 years in ex-Bourbon oak barriques, Barcelo's Anejo pours a beautiful polished copper colour and offers attractive scents of dried coconut, vanilla slice, and dilute golden syrup. Creamy yet dry; middle weighted palate features pronounced vanillas with hints of roasted nuts. Finish is engagingly spicy adding length and depth. Ends with the vanilla / caramel theme playing out with reasonable length. 37.5% Alc./Vol.

    "A new kind of old Springbank—abstract, simple, magnificent." - whiskyfun.com

    When it comes to pricing, the trajectory of regular Springbanks is heading further and further north, which puts the value for luxury bottlings like this into perspective. Apart from the extreme age statement and the stellar quality, collectors should note the tiny outturn of this particular release - just 176 bottles from a single refill hogshead. As for the style, says one fortunate taster: "It's sublime. No need to say more. We've reached a level where we can't use words and all we can hope for is another half-centilitre." Be quick. Seldom do you find a Springa' that breaches the three decade mark at this sort of price. 46.3% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Colour: light gold. Nose: the house style when there’s no sherry. Direct, slightly fermentary, with raw wool, modelling clay, damp chalk, and slate… You get the idea—it’s rather mineral, simple, almost youthful, yet to me, of an almost Caravaggesque beauty. Nothing is missing, and nothing is superfluous. Mouth: citrus and pepper, plus seawater and apple juice. That’s it—it’s little, and it’s a lot. A new kind of old Springbank—abstract, simple, magnificent. Isn’t complexity overrated in whisky? (Of course not—pure b*ll*cks.) Finish: not the longest, but always ultra-precise, with liquorice, mint, lemon, ashes, and pepper. Comments: it’s great fun tasting these vintages, which we first tried when they were ten years old, back when their ‘flaws’ hadn’t yet become their strengths. Who said time isn’t a major ingredient in whisky—aside from accountants? 92 points - whiskyfun.com

    This vineyard is planted to the MV6 clone. 3/4s of the berries are destemmed into an open fermenter on top of the remaining quarter, which is whole bunches. Pressed into French oak barrels, 10% new, the wine spent ten months maturing before a further six months in tank on lees. The colour here is a very pale crimson. This is an elegant style of Pinot with aromas of rose petals, red fruits, cherries, spices and bay leaves. A fine line of acidity, this is a medium weight style with very good length. On the palate, we see hints of red berries and even a hint of stalkiness emerging. The satiny tannins are finely woven throughout the persistent finish. A ten year proposition. Drink 2025-2035.

    The ’21 Grange was undoubtedly a hard act to follow, but here we see a ’22 that is up for the challenge. Yes, there is an underlying power, the kind you expect from sourcing fruit from the big three – Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Coonawarra – in what was essentially a cool vintage. But there is also a subtle elegance and moments when the lilt and carry of fine spices brings notes more akin to syrah than shiraz. The rise of blue fruits amid blackberries, cassis, black cherry sits comfortably with savoury leather and woodsmoke, roasted coffee, black olive, liquorice, dark chocolate, pepperberry and a lifted and arresting, aromatic spiciness. The palate offers a deep richness and plenty of flesh framed in firm, fine tannins – sturdy but not aggressively so. Sustained power meets a rising complex elegance. 97% shiraz/3% cabernet sauvignon. Drink 2032-2060.

    Jeni Port – WinePilot.com

    97/3% shiraz/cabernet sauvignon matured for 18 months in new American oak hogsheads. A deeply fruited, powerful Grange release from vintage conditions that play into the hands of those who respect the wine's impeccable pedigree of longevity. Impenetrably dark in colour, with ripe satsuma plum, blackberry, blueberry and black cherry fruits at the base, with hints of ginger spice, black pudding, dark chocolate, pan drippings, purple flowers, barrel spice, licorice, soot, graphite, a light formic lift and a suggestion of something ferrous akin to the tang of a blacksmith's anvil. It's deep and resonant; the tannins are fine and sinewy, rising up through the dense fruit, tending to chocolatey as they coalesce. Acidity is fine and sympatico with the fruit weight, providing line and length as those powerful flavours stretch out fully. Tuck it away for a decade and have a peek, then perhaps make it two.

    The 2022 Grange comprises 97% Shiraz and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Coonawarra. As always the wine matured for 18 months in American oak hogsheads (100% new). The 2022 vintage in South Australia was magnificent. I've loved the wines. It will always live in the shadow of the exceptional 2021 vintage. The season for Grange growers was shaped by a cool, measured growing season across South Australia. Good winter rainfall supported early vine growth, while unsettled spring weather, including hail, reduced yields, particularly for Barossa Valley Shiraz. A mild summer with few extreme heat events allowed slow, even ripening across key regions. Low yields, healthy canopies and extended hang time produced small berries, firm tannins, retained freshness and controlled power. Aromatically, the wine leads with licorice and blackberry, raspberry seed, cold tea and civet paste too. This is intensely concentrated (almost boring to mention that, given it is definitely the house style), powerful and black in character. Grange is made from fully ripe, structured Shiraz grapes sourced from South Australian regions. First produced experimentally in 1951, it has been made in every vintage since and is associated with the relationship between Shiraz and the soils and climates of South Australia. The tannins are primal and arrive with a snarl; they linger once the wine has gone and show immense dominance over all but the fruit. It's a great Grange. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2026-2062.

    There are times when a tasting of an icon wine can leave you slightly underwhelmed. This was not one of those times. Standing out like an A-lister in a spotlight among the 2026 Collection releases, this 75th anniversary vintage of Grange deserves every standing ovation the audience can give. Coming from a cool growing season – 'I always like the cooler years,' shares chief winemaker Peter Gago – 2022 blends fruit from Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Coonawarra, spending 18 months in new American oak hogsheads. Already offering so much aromatically, with a finely detailed nose that layers rose petals and spice with meaty and earthy tones; so fresh and harmonious. With just 3% of Cabernet in the mix, the palate showcases absolute purity of Shiraz fruit; somehow managing to combine plushness with elegance and vivid energy. Yes, you can deconstruct the impeccable tannins and trademark Grange volatile acidity; but I suspect you'll be swept up in the effortless balance and lingering finish of a wine that already feels so complete, though it also has decades ahead of it. Bravo! Drink 2026-2075.

    Hails from the Menzies Estate vineyard, smack bang in the middle of Coonawarra on those famous terra rossa over limestone soils. The aromas provide a slightly interesting departure from the fairly typical blackcurrant, which is still there but augmented with a subtle blueberry note. Typically elegant and poised, which is what you’d expect from Coonawarra, but there is a deceptive structural integrity here that gives it purpose and definition to carry through to a sustained long finish. It will continue to improve with further cellaring. Drink 2026-2036.

    There's a real elegance and charm here, with the cooler vintage showing through in black and blue berries, plum, sweet spice, ferrous earth and dried herbs. The palate is plush and silky with a metallic-edged austerity, rounded out by silky tannins and bright acidity. Lovely tension and purity, with plenty more to unravel with time in bottle. Drink or hold.

    Not the easiest of vintages, 2023 was cool and wet. This might explain the arrival of a new region to the St. Henri blend: Frankland River. It joins Port Lincoln and regulars McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley and Padthaway in what must have been a busy blending exercise. Keeps true to the style in warmth of personality. A deeply coloured wine with intense blackberry, plum, briar, earth, leather aromas. The texture is striking, layered in deep pile, fine tannins and tiers of ripe black fruits, spices that lift, notes of chocolate and earth and a clean, smooth run through to the finish. A challenging vintage once again proves the value of Penfolds multi-regional blending philosophy and turns out an impressive St. Henri. Drink 2026-2051.

    A very strong release for this classic Australian wine with a strong cellaring pedigree. Deep crimson in the glass with a purple edge and fruit tones of black cherry, satsuma plum, blueberry, and blackberry. Hints of brown spice, minerals, crushed herbs, tobacco leaf, dark chocolate-dipped cherries, black tea, roast meats and earth. There's a succulence and intensity to this year's release that is infectious; those enticing characters slowly shape-shift into something more savoury and vital at its core. The structure and fruit density suggest longevity is a given, along with balance and grace to boot. These are very good characters indeed. What a cracker. Drink by 2050.

    The 2023 St. Henri Shiraz was sourced from McLaren Vale (55%), Barossa Valley (21%), Frankland River (8%) and the balance from Port Lincoln and Padthaway. 2023 is the first time that Shiraz was sourced from Frankland River for the St. Henri, and this is significant, given it is Western Australia, when most of the fruit for the cuvées traditionally are sourced from the eastern states. To lend this comment context: 2023 was a cooler, wetter season in Barossa, a cooler season in McLaren Vale, and yet over in the west, it has shaped up to be one of the very best, most balanced, most energetic vintages in recent memory. So here, the 2023 St. Henri Shiraz is silky and fine, balanced and herbal, with star anise and shaved fennel, raspberry, milk chocolate, violets and freshness. It is really excellent. These current St. Henri's are very different in style to the early iterations of the cuvée, yet they manage to express a similar effortlessness and ease. I would say, on balance, that the alcohols are higher than the wines from the 1980s and before, yet the tannins are very polished and cleverly managed. I think this serves to set them apart or, at least, to create two schools of stylistic thinking—I am, for what it's worth, a fan of both. It matured for 12 months in large-format seasoned oak vats. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under natural cork. Drink 2026-2053.
