Averaging $12 per bottle, this is a pretty superb collection of reds if we don’t say so ourselves. If you want to know more about our flexible wine club, don’t hesitate to get in touch… Grant Burge GB56 Shiraz is an easy drinker, with black and blue fruits present along with some chocolate and plum punch. It has spent time in French and American Oak and the tannins are soft and fine. Zonte’s Footstep Canto Di Lago (Song of the Lake) is a suave Italian blend of Sangiovese, Barbera and Lagrein. Savoury fruits live here along the lines of some sour cherry and other red fruit. There’s also some peppercorn spice which makes it an excellent companion to Italian cuisine, especially a wood fired pizza. Finniss River’s 2015 2 x gold medal Cabernet is a cracker. We found mulberries, blackberries and some cedar and cinnamon spice. Give this one a go in the gurgler before serving to let the fruits come out to play. Shiraz lovers, we plonked a second one in here for you – Hesketh Small Parcels McLaren Vale Shiraz. Full bodied and powerful, this Shiraz has a stunning display of bright fruits along the lines of plums, chocolate, toasty oak and spice. It’ll happily cellar for 5-8 years if you’d like.
