A beautifully soft, savoury and complex red. A medium-bodied palate with red and black fruits. Layers of spice, dark plum and blackberries with plenty of fine tannins and a slightly rustic edge from the very high quality Mataro used here to finish the blend off. A lovely ‘welcome home’ glass which goes very nicely with dinner too. Learn More

What a stunning ‘lighter and brighter’ Shiraz from Turkey Flat. A neat counterpoint to their Estate Shiraz, it packs a powerful punch of fruit yet is lighter on its feet than it’s more expensive counterpart. Some whole bunch is used here and the oak used is all older – both factors in allowing the fruit to really shine. Red and blue fruits, white pepper, bright and crunchy goodness. Delicious Barossa joy in a glass. Learn More

A little riper than most PGs, this definitely a nod towards the style of Alsace. Gorgeous ripe pears and musk on the nose and palate which is already creamily textural. This mid-palate mouthfeel will continue to develop with time as the wine grows into itself. Only free run juice from whole bunch pressings were used and a small percentage of the wine spent time in old French oak. The result is a mixture of freshness and texture. This is a wonderful Pinot Gris Learn More

Superb small batch single vineyard PG from Keeda Zilm. Fruit is sourced entirely from Glen Kelly's vineyard in Sevenhill. Pears, spice, crisp green apple and an underlay of lime zest. Plenty of acid here to provide drive and a lovely mouthwatering aspect. The palate is just beginning to show the texture which develops so appealingly as PG ages. Learn More

This is zippy and slightly textural sauv blanc which offers a lovely combo of greenery to go with the passionfruit and tropicals. All in all, there’s plenty going on with this wine for discerning savvy blanc fans. Learn More

Ripping value, as is every wine carrying the Spice Trader imprimatur. These are medium bodied wines offering dark fruit, spice and an intensity of ripe black fruit. Easy to drink, yet serious and cracking value for money. Learn More

Lots going on here in this aromatic, medium bodied gem. Blackberries, almonds, lush black fruits, spice and fine but assertive tannins. Impossibly easy to drink but with a presence that marks it as being something a bit spesh! Learn More

Medium bodied and fragrant, this beauty offers blackcurrant, thyme, spice and waxy tannins to finish. The seasoning, 1-3 year old French and American oak. That's fairly insane at this price point. A bargain! Learn More

A stunning Valpolicella made using the Ripasso method, or 'repass'. Highest quality, high altitude Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone are fermented on the pressed skins of an Amarone ferment, giving higher alcohols, colour and a good degree more complexity. Rich, dark and savoury, this beast offers ripe cherries, white pepper, chocolate, graphite, minerals, blackberries and more. A moreish and complex red wine that pairs majestically with roast meat and ragu. Learn More

A glorious Riesling from the 2022 vintage, widely considered the equal of the great 2002 and 2021 vintages. Stephen Pannel commented that, “2022 (Clare) Rieslings are particularly strong, the stylish nature of these wines and the purity of their varietal character show the strength of the beautiful Clare Valley as a Riesling stronghold." So here's the Kilikanoon Meyman's, more linear and higher in acid than the 2021 but still built around lemons and limes, offering minerality and brilliant length and intensity. Can be cellared for a decade or more. Learn More

Lifted citrus, white peach and crème brûlée on the nose lead to green apple and grapefruit spread across the palate, only interrupted momentarily by the melting toasty mouthfeel. From an exceptional vineyard in Charleston which sits at about 500m above sea level. Learn More

Black plummy fruits, blackberries, a rich mid palate, some cedar thanks to 6 months in French oak and excellent acid drive. A big, rich and boofy Barossa Shiraz which is just about perfect with Pizza or gourmet snags. Learn More
