Cost of living’s up. Your wine bill doesn’t have to be.

Here’s our attempt at rebalancing the equation: 12 seriously good reds for just $12 a bottle — and not a quaffer in sight

Highlights? Glad you asked:

Griffin’s 93pt Adelaide Hills Shiraz – Black fruit, spice, and a graceful balance that puts pricier wines to shame. A tasting panel favourite.

Red Deer 95pt Langhorne Creek Shiraz – One of our top sellers. Big fruit, warming spice, incredible value.

Norfolk Rise Cab from the Limestone Coast – 93pts, medium-bodied and varietally spot-on with fine tannins and a cedar lift.

Leasingham Bin 61 Shiraz A legend. Over 50 vintages of history in this bottle. Rich, powerful and beautifully drinkable right now (or lay it down if you’re patient).

All up, $144 for the dozen.

That’s $12 a bottle for reds that easily drink well above their price point.

Only 200 packs available – once they’re gone, that’s it.

An amazing cobbling together here of good things, 13 of them, valued at $550, which will set you back just $169. Yep $13 a bottle.

There's Turkey Flat's achingly beautiful mid-weight Barossa GSM, 3 Rings' stunning Barossa Shiraz, Leasingham's Bin 61 Shiraz - a delicious wine which has been in production for over 50 years, and Griffin's delightfully spiced and black fruited Adelaide Hills Shiraz.

3 each of the wines above, plus a bottle of Yaldara's magical super premium Grand Cuvée Shiraz!

Usually, a dozen priced for everyday drinking means a few cut corners — lesser regions, entry-level wines, and not much to get excited about. But not this lot. These are seriously good reds, starting with the legendary Leasingham Bin 61 Shiraz from Clare Valley, and Manser’s 95-point Dad’s Cut Shiraz made from A-grade fruit in the Adelaide Hills. There’s Houghton’s Frankland River Shiraz — from one of Australia’s best regions for the variety — and a 93-point, estate-grown Cabernet from Norfolk Rise in Mount Benson. And the kicker? A bottle of Yaldara’s Grand Barossa Shiraz —a $250 a bottle stunner is included in the pack. Everyday price, yes. Everyday wine? Not even close.

Quaffing prices here for quality reds inc Barossa Shiraz, Adelaide Hills Shiraz, Langhorne Shiraz, a stunning, old vine Clare Shiraz from Mitchell, a cracking reserve Clare Shiraz and a very special $250 a bottle Barossa Shiraz behemoth. All up $672 worth for just $180.

Stunning 7 clone Barossa Shiraz, made by the Lienert Brothers, who used to sell fruit to St Henri, before deciding to keep the good stuff for their own bottlings. Multiple trophy winning Shiraz from Forester Margaret River, Claymore's consistently slurpable Dark Side of the Moon Clare Shiraz. Gold winning SB from Barristers Block and trophy winning SBS from Willowbridge. All this makes this a great value pack, but just in case you needed convincing, we added in a $250 a bottle Barossa Shiraz to help you over the line!
