Langhorne Creek, SA Latest Packs

Tempranillo is one of our favourite things here at winedirect.com.au. Here's 3 rippers which you'll be getting 2 bottles apiece of. From one of the Rioja's oldest producers, the Carlos Serres Crianza 2020 which sees high quality Tempranillo spend a year in oak and a year in bottle prior to release. This is a particularly good example, packed with red fruits, cherries, spice, oak and nervy acidity. Bleasdale 2022 - a trophy winner at the Adelaide Show with wonderful red fruits and subtle oak influence. Red cherries, chocolate, supportive acidity and fine tannins. Good at room temp, and also worth giving a 20 min spell in the fridge. Colab and Bloom 2021 - a Gold medal winner from a highly regarded vineyard in Maacclesfield (Adelaide Hills). Medium bodied, with plenty of red fruits, violet, cherry, cola and spice. Learn More

A wonderful selection of red wines from the Clare Valley, Adelaide Hills, Langhorne Creek, McLaren Vale and Barossa Valley. The Sieben Klon is a 95 pointer made by former St Henri growers, the Metala Legacy is as good a Cab as the Langhorne can make (which is mighty fine). Dowie Doole's Shiraz has black fruits, but also, and much rarer, blue fruits too. It is a belter. If all Shiraz had black and blue fruits, no one would buy anything else! Lone Palm's Old Vine Grenache will sell out in a few months and the Angas King Reserve is incredibly fresh for its age and has at least a decade ahead of it. We're predicting a lot of staff orders for this one. Learn More

The Yarra Celebration is light to medium but savoury and with lovely fruit - and the Scepter Barossa Cab is a beast worthy of a T-Bone. Finally, the 13th bottle is Curtis' Small Batch, Old Vine, 96 point McLaren Vale Shiraz, a magical wine with exceptional depth of flavour. Learn More

Baker's dozens have been flying out the door of recent times, so after much chin stroking, we thought we'd best make a new one. Cracking booze too, with 95+ point stunners from Lone Palm, Lienert, Curtis, Red Deer and more and the debut of Karl's Scepter's Barossa Cab. It's a punchy beast - you might need to chargrill a T-Bone to tame it. Let us know how you get on. Learn More

The reboot sees us lose the lovely Z Wine GSM, a trophy winner with an rrp of $45, replacing that with Heirloom’s Halliday 95 pointed, $80 a bottle, 2021 Alcala Grenache.

Fair chance this is the best $199 Shiraz doz we’ve ever cobbled together. Each of these has scored 95 points or more and all of these are old vine wines too, with the average vine age across the three sitting at 60!
