Here’s a dozen Shiraz from the Barossa, the Clare Valley and McLaren Vale, with a 95-point Clare Shiraz, 95 pointers from McLaren Vale and a trio of Shiraz made by former Penfolds winemaker Oliver Crawford.

We’ve also included a bonus bottle of Yaldara’s Grand Cuvée, which Sam Kim has just rated at 96 points, saying ‘This is superbly ripe and perfumed with black/blueberry, vanillin oak, warm spice and mocha notes on the nose. The powerfully concentrated palate delivers outstanding weight and opulence, together with velvety texture and fine-grained tannins, making it gratifying and immensely appealing.’ At its best: now to 2039.

A rare beast this, a Shiraz doz at $150 with not a rough tumbler in sight! Just delicious Shiraz from Oliver’s Taranga, Farmer’s Leap, Red Deer and Karl’s Scepter. All of these are ready to drink now but you could certainly cellar the Red Deer and Farmer’s Leap for another 5+ years and the Oliver’s for another 8-10 years if you feel so inclined. Learn More
