Red Blend Wines
Single varietals are great, no argument here. But there is something magical about a winemaker’s ability to blend two or more different varieties to create something very, very special, that in some cases can be greater than the sum of its parts. Whether it’s the iconic Aussie blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, or a GSM and its variants, or the latest trend towards blending more new world varieties, we love a nice red blend. These are the latest red blends to leave the Tasting Panel grinning goofily with wine dribbling down their chins...
- Haselgrove 'Switch' GSM 2018Special Price $35.00 Regular Price $40.00This is a big wine by GSM standards and brooding to boot. There’s lots of dark fruit, swirls of spice and earth, chocolate and plums. It is superbly succulent, lithe relative to its impressive fruit weight and an each way bet for necking now or in 10 years time. Learn More
- Richard Hamilton Colton’s GSM 2020Special Price $21.00 Regular Price $26.00Glossy glossy black and blue fruits here in spades. It’s almost like this wine has been coated in slippery teflon. Silky, spicy and delicious. Learn More
- Watkins Langhorne Creek Symmetry GSM 2021Special Price $22.00 Regular Price $26.00Oaked Shiraz meets unoaked Grenache and Mataro here. This is juicy and lifted, and mid-weight, with zippy acidity giving the wine length. Fresh and zesty enough to drink any old time but with a quality of fruit that makes it serious too. Learn More
