Bartali Elysian Springs Picardy Dandelion Rusty Mutt Mazza Barristers Block Griffin Curtis Family Vineyards 2019 Best Wine Deals

This lot features the top-selling reds from our recent End of Wine-ancial Year Sale – and here’s the kicker:

You’re getting them for even less than they were during the sale, cause our mixed pack offers are always on point.

These wines were snapped up fast – ordered, reordered, and ordered again – and now you can grab the whole lineup in one epic value dozen.

To seal the deal, we’ve made it a baker’s dozen, throwing in a bottle of Yaldara’s Grand Cuvée Shiraz 2022 – a $250 RRP Barossa powerhouse.

Most Aussie red drinkers know our Shiraz can be big, bold and packed with flavour. You could argue that these are the biggest reds on the planet. But that would be discounting Italian reds — especially those from the Amarone-producing region of Valpolicella — which can be just as powerful. The secret? Traditional techniques like air-drying grapes pre-ferment to intensify richness and structure. Source them from a high altitude grower who yields his vineyard low, air dries the fruit for an extended period and ferments to maximise extraction, and you've got yourself a bruising rivalry!

In this 6-pack, we’ve matched three massive, low yield, air dried reds from Ca' Botta with three bold Aussie reds, including the opulent Yaldara Grand Shiraz and full-bodied Angas King Reserve. It's a side-by-side look at what happens when both hemispheres go big — in flavour, structure and style.

Given times are tight at the moment, we're putting extra effort into the value side of the equation whilst, as always, striving to offer the best wines possible. So, here's a $180 baker's doz we think comfortably passes the Pub Test.

Inside, you’ll find:

3 bottles of a 93-point Estate Grown Limestone Coast Cabernet

3 bottles of a delicious 93-point Adelaide Hills Shiraz

3 bottles of Three Rings' superb Barossa Shiraz

3 bottles of Showblock’s powerhouse 95-point Cab Shiraz

The 13th? Oh, that's just a bottle of Martin’s $150 a bottle McLaren Vale Shiraz—a super-premium stunner and longtime best-seller.

Great wine, serious value. Hard to go wrong with this one.

We love McLaren Vale here at winedirect.com.au. These reds have soul – rich, fruit-driven and generous – drinking beautifully from the first glass to the last.

They’re relaxed enough to lift a pizza after mid-week sport, but easily classy enough to eyeball a fillet steak on Friday night.

This pack brings together six absolute beauties, including Oliver’s Taranga Shiraz 2022 – from a Halliday 5 Red Star winery and Grange grower, this is pure McLaren power with polish to spare. There's Pasha Shiraz 2021 – A 97-point, $100-a-bottle stunner that balances opulence and finesse in one hell of a package. From Dowie Doole, their flagship Architect Cabernet Sauvignon, a 96-pointer and, in our view, one of the best Cabs coming out of the Vale right now. Dandelion Vineyards 'Treasure Trove' Grenache 2019 – vibrant, silken, and wildly aromatic. Staff orders are full of this stuff – and for good reason. And if that's not quite enough, and to be fair 'cos there are 12 slots in the box, Showblock's ‘Rosie’ Red 2019 – A bold, full-throttle blend that’s rich, ripe, and ready to go. Big wine, big flavour, big fun.
