Learn More - Champagne Bernard Remy Carte Blanche NV$79.00A stunningly complex Champagne. The nose offers mushroom and truffle, shortbread and stonefruits too. The palate offers all of the above and a meatiness from the Pinot Noir component. As the wine opens there is also nectarine and apple. Persistence of flavour and intensity are exceptional. Learn More
- Leasingham Bin 61 Shiraz 2021Special Price $20.00 Regular Price $25.00Leasingham wines have been around since the 1890s and have been steered by a series of legendary winemakers over the years. It wasn’t until the early 70s that the Bin series kicked off, with a Bin 61 Shiraz and a Bin 56 Cab Malbec. These were both highly prized for their exceptional quality and regular ability to out-perform wines selling at 2-3 times their asking price. A few of us from WD were lucky enough to attend a vertical tasting with Tim Knappstein (one of the aforementioned and legendary Leasingham alumni) a decade or so ago and came away incredibly impressed with the quality and consistency of the wines. We looked at over 20 vintages, and everything we tasted was still showing fruit, the best of them were exceptional. So it’s a little sad that the '21 may be the last vintage of the Bin 61 Shiraz. Lots of good stuff here, black tea, chocolate, coffee grounds, mint, plum, charcuterie, and blackberries. The overall impression is of mid-weight fruit, an even balance between softness, fine tannin and good length. Cracking value for money. Drink now through 2030. Learn More
- Mitchell Peppertree Shiraz 2015Special Price $28.00 Regular Price $48.00A riper, darker and more supple expression of Peppertree Shiraz which retains the hallmark spice and subtlety. It was aged in old oak and released at 5 years of age – ready to drink! This is balanced and fresh, offering dark fruits, cherries, violets, dark chocolate, savoury notes and white pepper. Drink any time over the next 10+ years. Learn More
- The Heavy-Hitting $199 Shiraz DozenRegular Price $624.00 $199.00Coming your way, three bottles of the Red Deer '22 Langhorne Creek Old Vine Shiraz. This is a wine that we can squeeze into the $199 doz comfortably. It is $35 retail and just picked up 95 points from Kim Brebach with the following words: ‘…took me right back to the early reds of Wolf Blass (also using Langhorne Creek fruit). The vibrant, slippery fruit is supercharged, bursting with bright flavour yet the wine is not overripe or high in alcohol. It’s medium-bodied, almost elegant – it’s truly rare to find such intensity of flavour in a gentle red. So far so good; we’re on track for a good $199 doz. Then it starts to get silly, because we’ve also shoehorned in three bottles of the 2015 Mitchell Peppertree Shiraz: a 96-point stunner, mid weight and drinking beautifully. No rush though, you can drink this any time over the next 10 years. Next up, three of Greenock Estate’s Sieger 777 Old Vine Barossa Shiraz. This wine pulls no punches: a $50-a-bottle, full-throttle Barossa Shiraz that leaves no stone unturned in its mission to stone your palate to death. Drink it carefully; it's big! To complete the heavy-hitting, we have three $75-a-bottle Angas King Reserve Clare Shiraz. We’ve already sold a bucketload of this wine and had a heap of repeat orders for it. It's decent value at $75, exceptional when you can pick it up in this doz with an average bottle price of just $16.58! Learn More
