If alternative whites are your jam, butter up! Here's a selection of 6 slippery suckers with nary a Chardonnay or a Sauvvy Blanc in sight. All tasted and retasted by our panel and all given the thumbs up. Langmeil’s gold medal winning blend of Rhone varietals Viognier, Marsanne and Roussanne. A couple of superb Fianos from McLaren Vale. A magic Sem from the Hunter and a couple of gorgeous PGs- one from the Clare and the other from the Adelaide Hills. All drinking beautifully, right now!

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!

6 magical Chardies here. Evan's and Tate Redbrook, which picked up gold at the Adelaide Show, is creamy and complexed with stunning French oak. The Hirsch Hill is this Yarra winery's Flagship Chardy - with powerful fruit and assertive acidity, it will cellar well. The Picardy is one of the best Chardonnays made in Oz. Made entirely from clones imported from Burgundy, it offers complexity, depth and class. We can comfortable recommend all of these for your consideration!

Here’s a dozen that sorts you out when you are looking for something fresh and good to go right now- a vibrant mix of lifted, juicy reds that are expressive, and eminently drinkable. From the fragrant and silky Briar Ridge Block 6 Pinot and Yarra grown Hirsch Hill Pinot, to the lithe and spicy Ca Vegar Bardolino, this pack is all about energy and perfume. There’s serious class in the 96pt Heirloom Alcala Grenache, and a welcome hit of exotic depth from the inky, fruit-laden and trophy winning Heirloom Touriga. Yes, there is one Shiraz – the superb Houghton Frankland River Premium – a cool-climate gem with black fruits and spice in perfect balance. A $606 collection for just $295 – your palate (and wallet) will thank you.
