4 bottles each of Angas King’s magnificent, $75 a bottle, 2017 reserve Shiraz. We tried this twice on the tasting panel and loved it both times- it looked even better a day after opening and has a bright future ahead of it. Ken Gargett said, ‘still very young … powerful with a long and exciting future. Seamless, with bright acidity and silky tannins plus a very long finish which maintains the intensity. Drink now and for 10 to 20 years.’ You’ll also get 4 bottles of Martin’s 97 point $150 a bottle McLaren Vale Shiraz, and 4 of Karl Scepter’s 93-point, succulent and chocolatey Barossa Cab. Finally a $200 a bottle, 96 point Barossa Cab Shiraz from Yaldara! Learn More

6 bottles apiece of 2 stellar 97 point Shiraz which you can enjoy side by side, over and over again. First up Martin’s 97 point super-premium McLaren Vale Shiraz which is packed with black and blue fruits and finished with rasps of cedar and powdery tannin. Three Scores in for this so far 1x97 ans 2x96! Last but not least, Manser’s Block 4 Shiraz, replete with two scores of 97 points and a gold medal; a powerhouse, black-fruited Shiraz packing cedar and vanilla which is finished with plentiful fine tannins.

For the 15th consecutive year, winedirect.com.au has had the honour of being asked to curate the Official Royal Adelaide Wine Show Dozen. This is unequivocally the best edition to date.

6 wines in this pack and 6 Royal Adelaide Wine Show Trophies!

1: Most Outstanding Red Wine in Show

2: Best Shiraz in Show

3: Best Shiraz 2020 Vintage and Older

5: Best Grenache in Show

6: Best Other Varietal Red in Show

Yep, for the first time ever, we’ve managed to squeeze 6 trophies into the official Royal Adelaide Wine Show Red Dozen. The quality of each wine is utterly exceptional. Every wine in this dozen was not just a gold medal winner, but the equal best pointed wine in their class in initial judging. As you’d expect, quite a few have done well elsewhere too. The Majella Cab is Winestate’s Cabernet of the year and has won 4 trophies to date. The Redbrook Shiraz has picked up 9 gold medals elsewhere. We suspect stock of this pack will sell fast. Grab one while you can.

An assembly of our favourite Grenache and blends at the mo. Multiple trophy winning Kilikanoon Baudinet GSM, trophy winning Kilikanoon Prodigal, Curtis' 96 point old viner and Lone Palm's old vine 95 pointer all offer power to burn but with a brightness of fruit that is very much the modern way. The Lienert and Brother's at War are lighter Grenache, but not wishy washy. Both of these offer exceptional red fruits, excellent acidity and whisper fine tannins. We love all 6 of these wines.

We kick off with the celebrated Heirloom Alcala Grenache. The '22 picked up the Decanter Trophy for world's best Grenache in a substantial field of heavy hitting Grenache from Aus, France, Spain, California and more. There's also Lone Palm's Old Vine Grenache, a wine made in tiny quantities which we rate as highly as the Alcala. Then the Sieben Klon, a multi clonal, ethereal Barossa Grenache which is altogether lighter, but no less compelling. From there, excellent examples of Tempranillo, Montepulciano and Sangiovese made by Mike Farmilo, who used to make Penfolds Grange. These are genuinely excellent too! Learn More
