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.

We wanted to build the best pack we’ve never made before...

And after tossing around a few ideas, inspiration struck:

What if every wine in the pack had someone say,

"That’s one of the best wines I’ve ever had"?

So here it is — a lineup of 4 incredible Shiraz, all with serious pedigree, rave reviews, and a stack of repeat customers.

Yaldara Grand Shiraz – RRP $250

A powerhouse Barossa red — bold, black and luxe

Two Sisters Shiraz – Barossa Valley

From a family that’s been growing grapes since the first vines were planted in the region. Pure, classic, intense Barossa.

Lone Palm Hillside Shiraz – Barossa Valley

Compared to Grange more than once. Silky power, serious structure.

Showblock Shiraz – McLaren Vale

Multiple 96-point reviews and a mountain of repeat orders. Just a stunning wine.

Big Reds & Pizza? Not Always a Match…

But that doesn’t mean you have to drink plonk either.

We’ve rounded up mid-weight reds that punch well above their weight in aromatics and flavour — wines that play nicely with a slice (or three). Think:

Old vine Barossa Grenache

Adelaide Hills Nero d’Avola

Turkey Flat GSM — a stunner

And more

The kind of bottles that cuddle up to a Margherita or that prosciutto/rocket/buffalo mozz combo like they were made for it.

Plus, in place of slinging you a garlic bread, we'll send...

A bottle of Dandelion’s flagship Grenache —

$120 RRP, from the heart of McLaren Vale.

Smart, delicious, pizza-friendly reds — and one absolute baller bottle for good measure.

By Popular Demand – A Cabernet Pack Under $20 a Bottle

You asked, we delivered – a cracking Cab-dominant dozen for under $20 a bottle. These are far from basic – each wine offers serious structure, flavour, and cellaring potential.

Longview Cabernet Sauvignon '22

Elegant, structured, and finely tannined – this trophy-winning Adelaide Hills Cab is textbook stuff. Expect violets, blue fruits, and a stunning, almost porcelain-like frame. Perfect with a lamb roast. Decant now or cellar for 10+ years.

Norfolk Rise Cabernet Sauvignon '22

100% estate-grown Limestone Coast fruit, this is beautifully made – vibrant, smooth, and generous. Effortless drinking now, but with enough structure to age nicely too.

Showblock Rosie '19

A 95-point McLaren Vale stunner. Mostly Cab with a splash of Shiraz, this is big, rich, thick, black, and unctuous. Utterly delicious and built to impress.

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.

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.

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!

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!
