Mixed Wine Packs

It's been a while since we rolled out a double dozen. Fair to say they have always sold well and offer excellent coverage for the requirements of the silly season.

Crackers here like Mitchell Kalmar - a $50 a bottle, single vineyard Shiraz, Deep Woods SBS - a trophy winner from Margaret River. Showblock Rosie, a 95 point, $85 a bottle blend from McLaren Vale and Greenock Estate's Sieger old vine Barossa Shiraz. Retail on this one is $50 and it represents incredible value. We reckon there are a couple of Barossa producers who'd offer this wine at $100 or more.

All up 24 bottles worth $964 for just $15 a bottle and the bulk of your Christmas entertaining catered for beautifully!

A Chrissie sixer for us means 6 of the best but without corporal punishment. Even your wallet will be ok given the baked in discount.

This contains a bottle each of

Wicks Pamela Sparkling, a trophy winning Adelaide Hills sparkling which is made using the Champagne method. Its one of the best Aussie sparklings money can buy.

Dowie Doole's Sparkling Shiraz, made entirely from an A-grade Shiraz solera which has been in continuous use since 1996. Stunning fruit and just slightly sweet, this is exceptional.

Jeanneret's Sevenhill Riesling- 96 points from Sam Kim. This offers an ethereal fragrance and a powerful core of intense Riesling fruit. Lively and beguiling simultaneously.

Kilikanoon Tregea Cabernet - this is Kilikanoon's Flagship Cab; rich and densely fruited, needs decanting and might just be the perfect thing to have with roast Lamb.

Lone Palm Old Vine Grenache. Old Vine Grenache with a splash of old vine Shiraz. !00% Barossa Valley, 100% French oak. Spicy, black fruited and beautifully balanced.

Irvine Grand Merlot 2018. Australia's greatest Merlot; rich and smooth, laden with ripe tobacco leaf, plums and more. Just a beautiful thing to put in your head.

Tough judging this year, with only around 5% of wines picking up a gold, and we can confirm that the quality of this year’s dozen is absolute fire across the board.

Every wine in the pack this year is a gold winner. There are also a couple of trophy winners: the After Five Monte, and Forester’s Shiraz. The latter is 86% Shiraz and 14% Fer… yep, an ancient varietal of Basque origin, which these days is also planted in some southern French wine regions. There is also a bit of it planted over in WA. The variety offers cassis, red fruits, black fruits, superb intensity and a degree of smokiness. This might be the first time a trophy winner at the Adelaide Wine Show has contained Fer, which offers a nice opportunity for nerdy contemplation. More importantly, the wine is beautiful. Looking beyond the accolades garnered at the Adelaide Show, these wines have also accrued an additional 10 gold medals, a trophy, a runner up in Halliday’s annual Cabernet competition and more. These wines are uniformly exceptional.
