Here is an ANZ member exclusive that will help get your wine rack in tip top shape. In this pack you will get 4 each of these three beauties. The 2017 Angus King Clare Valley Shiraz is smooth and velvety, with plenty of life left despite its age. The dry-grown, single vineyard, Blewett Spring Architect Shiraz by Dowie Doole is a masterclass in McLaren Vale terroir. Finally we finish with the Karl Sceptre Coonawarra Cab Sav which stands its ground in this pack of behemoths!
PLUS a bonus of the Yaldara Grand Cuvee Barossa Shiraz, a 96pt, $250 super premium stunner from the incredible 2021 vintage!
A baker's dozen worth $1,062, chock full of super premium reds for just $295 ($22.69/bottle!)
The 2021 Yaldara Grand is a straight Shiraz, owing to the concentration and profundity of the Shiraz fruit from this vintage. Unsurprisingly, this offers more power and concentration than any previous vintage. A massive, deep and complex expression of the best bits of the Barossa Valley. Dark chocolate, liquorice, tobacco leaf, blue and black fruits, cedar, cassis, plums, cherries, spice and plenty of cedary oak and tannins. Incredible.
Only tiny quantities are made of the Dowie Doole Architect wines, which are the product of the finest of Dowie Doole's A-grade fruit from each vintage ('21 being an incredible vintage has elevated this even further). The '21 is exceptional, and represents a barrel selection chosen from only A-grade parcels from the old, dry-grown Blewitt Springs vineyard. There's brightness with density of blue and black fruits, cedary oak, gravelly tannins and exceptional length.
Rich, black, dark, deep, powerfully fruited and structured with a decent lick of oak. Old school but drinking beautifully thanks to its age. Blackcurrant, black olives, bay leaf, dark chocolate, zesty acidity and cedary oak make this a powerful pleasure right now. Will continue to improve tho, for at least a decade.
A smooth and rich, mid weight Coonawarra Cab with luscious red and dark fruit, bell pepper, tomato leaf, plum and herbals all on the go. The oak here is French, the acid just right and tannin finish finely polished. A lovely wine.
