An outstanding chardonnay, offering stonefruits, grapefruit, brioche, honeydew melon, spice, flintiness, great texture and length. If only all Chardonnay was like this. Learn More

Medium-bodied, off-dry and complex. This is a blend of 2019 Shiraz aged in oak and 2021 Shiraz aged in stainless. Both vintages were exceptional. The 2 were then blended and a fairly small dosage for sweetening was added. This is spiced, aromatic, plummy, and Christmas cakey all at once. Lovely. Learn More

A beautifully zingy, crisp apply number. This is refreshing and at 11% relatively low in alcohol. Quite dry too and with good acidity giving it length. Importantly it is made from the Glera grapes grown on the Fleurieu Peninsula, the traditional grape of Italian Prosecco. Learn More

This is a soft, spicy, black-fruited beast with plums and blackberries spiced with pepper and five spice and served on cedary oak. Tannins are fine and soft, making this an excellent accompaniment to food. Like Rhone blends! We love 'em. This is definitely worth a look!

In addition to 6 gold medals to date, this was also awarded trophies for best value Australian Shiraz and best value dinner party red at the World Wine Championships.

Lots of pear here, juice and a hint of pulp too, along worth talcum powder and other goodies. Plenty of acid too and just the beginnings of textural mouthfeel. This is a lovely aperitif style now, with plenty of flavour and will blossom in the bottle over the next 3-4 years, becoming richer and honeyed.

Sorry, this product is not available individually, only in packs.

We are massive fans of Zonte’s Chocolate Factory Shiraz! This edition offers black cherries, coffee and chocolate (of course). It is mid-weight, yet with concentrated fruit and the milk chocolate twist brings a little extra decadence to your glass. Superb and beautifully polished on opening, it is even better if you have the time to decant an hour or 2 before drinking. Learn More
