NV 2016 Best Wines Under $50

All about the red fruits and plum here, in a fluffy, lush, cuddly, generous and bubbly setting. There’s Christmas cakey spices and a hint of quince paste to boot. Lip smackingly delicious. 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

This is a mighty Shiraz, rich dark cocoa and coffee licks mix seductively with and a beautiful cedar platter. Dark fruit and five spice float through the palate lingering to a long finish of fine tannin. Learn More

Blackfruits and sour red fruits, a dash of tar, an hint of roses and Earl Grey tea finishing with plentiful tannins. There’s a deep red fruit intensity shining through and a savoury edge here. An excellent food wine, different but delicious. Learn More

Massive- a big, dark and super rich red wine, yet smooth and textural. Plenty of oak, and good acidity. On the tasting panel, we kinda expected to hate this, given it's 16.3% alcohol – fair to say we were wrong! Learn More

A beautiful sparkling made from Adelaide Hills Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, using the Methode Champenoise. The wine was aged on lees in bottle for 2 years prior to disgorgement. Aromas of pink grapefruit, rose and strawberries and brioche. Same on the palate along with notes of lemon curd. Excellent length and depth of flavour. Learn More

Lush and aromatic, this beautifully slurpable Touriga Nacional offers blueberry, plum, blackberry, cocoa, red fruits and cinnamon. Wonderful at room temp, it is also great after 20 mins in the fridge. We love it. Learn More

A brilliantly drinkable sparkling made by Pizzini wines from King Valley Fruit. This is an exceptionally refreshing wine offering lemon sherbet, apples, powdered ginger and more. Works well as an aperitif, with antipasto, prosciutto pizza and seafood. We reckon you’ll definitely want a second glass. Learn More

A beautiful Prosecco made by Pizzini wines from King Valley Glera, the same varietal used in the production of Italian Prosecco. This is an exceptionally refreshing wine offering lemon sherbet and lime zest, yeast, toastiness and a hint of jasmine. Complex for a Prosecco. Learn More

Truly a modern classic, this Adelaide Hill Sparkling is all about high-quality fruit spending 5 years on lees to develop texture and complexity. There’s a full, rich mouthfeel and texture and delicate toasty notes of warm honey, brioche, ginger, grapefruit, green apple, and more. The length and intensity are fantastic. Learn More
