2010 Banrock Station Shiraz

A great-value red, and good for the Earth. Dry and medium to full-bodied, this Shiraz fills the palate with rich plum and cherry. Ready to drink now.

2010 Bird In Hand Estate Shiraz

This wine is spectacular right now. Reduced blackcurrant and creaminess lead from the front. Fruit is rich, inviting and soft on the palate, as blackcurrant melds with chocolate, cream and hints of Christmas cake spices. Tannins are soft and sufficient. With this bird in your hands you won’t give a second thought to the flock in the bush.

2010 Gemtree Tatty Road Shiraz

Tatty Road Shiraz is a good quaffer from the Gemtree huggers. Nice ripe, juicy fruits and oak sparingly applied. Good… screwcap

2008 Turkey Flat Shiraz

Bonus Setanta Shiraz on 6

Turkey Flat Shiraz is made in part from some of the oldest living Shiraz vines in the world, dating back to 1847! This is an incredibly concentrated wine, loaded with blackberries, blue berries and Christmas cake all shot through with tarry goodness… brilliant…96/100 from James Halliday.

2008 Forest Hill Shiraz

We thought long and hard about how best to convey just how delightful this wine is, and struggled to keep it PG. Suffice to say if you are looking for an alternative the the Easter Island sized beasties from the Barossa then this wine could well sweep you off your feed. Charmingly red fruited with white pepper accents and gorgeously supple tannins … screwcap

2009 Pikes Eastside Shiraz

An impressive wine that shows an array of ripe red and blue fruits yet underpinning this wine is richness and serious structure that will stand up to dead cow or smelly cheese… screwcap.

2009 Claymore Walk on the Wild Side Shiraz

Lou Reed may like Sangria in the park, but we suspect a bottle of this with a picnic of full-flavoured cheese would get him walking this way. A soft palate and lingering spiced oak on the finish, the colour is deep ruby in the glass.

2010 Dandelion Lionheart Shiraz

We reckon this is pretty flash, with gorgeously cedary French oak framing a palate awash with sticky black cherry and a reduction of ripe blackberry. Acid and fine tannins give it a backbone… like Roger Ramjet on a mission...

2009 Gemtree Bloodstone Shiraz

The first sip fills the mouth with sweet fruit, levelling off to a backbone of sultry chocolates. Hit cruise control and revel in a long finish -- it's a great drink.

2010 Gemtree Uncut Shiraz

Customary red berries and chocolate abound.
