Lloyd Brothers Artis Best Wine Deals

Save over 65% on this magical mixed baker’s doz with multiple gold medals, and plenty of effusive words from worthy wine scribes. There’s Lloyd Brothers Méthode Champenoise Adelaide Hills Sparkling. Méthode Champenoise refers to the laborious process whereby the wine is aged on lees in bottle to build complexity and depth of flavour. Costs a lot of both money and time to produce sparkling this way but the results in this instance are undeniable. See also Villa Fresco Frizzante, an Aussie Alternative to prosecco, packed with vibrant fruit and gorgeous bubbles. See also Clare Riesling from Kilikanoon. On the red front, the concentrated, 95pt Kilikanoon Shiraz, 2 delicious Cabernets, and half a dozen awesome Shiraz from the Barossa, McLaren Vale, and Langhorne Creek. Included is the magnificent Stonehouse Neldner Old Vine Shiraz. This $150 a bottle Barossa Valley, old vine powerhouse inspired which has inspired more than a few comparisons to Penfolds Grange. There’s also stunning 97pt Martins Limited Shiraz, and Pasha’s epic, rich, and fruit-intense McLaren Vale Shiraz. This one retails for $100 a bottle and is one of our best selling wines of all time.

We get it, not everyone wants to drink Sauv Blanc and even if you do, sometimes it’s nice to get into a pear-laden PG or a crisp and aromatic Rizza or perhaps something even more exotic! So here’s a pack with the Sauv Blancs banished! In their place, a stunning Riesling from Claymore leads the way, laden with citrus and mouthwatering acidity, plus apples and pears and a wonderfully creamy texture in the PG from Artis. Ted’s Place PG is dry and textural, with pear, ginger and apple aromas and flavours. Finally, the Dell’uva Albarino offers a palate packed with peach, lemons, green apples, spice and salinity. It is wonderful by itself and even better with seafood.
