Purple Hands Wines Royal Adelaide Wine Show Packs
For the 15th consecutive year, we have had the honour of being asked to curate the Official Royal Adelaide Wine Show Dozen. This is unequivocally the best to date. For the first time ever, we’ve managed to secure 8 trophy winners. The quality of each wine is utterly exceptional.
- The Official 2024 Royal Adelaide Wine Show Mixed DozenRegular Price $403.00 $285.00
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.
