Langhorne Creek, SA Valpollicella DOC, Italy Wine List

All about the red fruits and plum here, in a fluffy, lush, cuddly, generous and bubbly setting. There’s Christmas cakey spices and a hint of quince paste to boot. Lip smackingly delicious. Learn More

A brilliant, medium bodied, single vineyard temp with minimal oak influence. A wonderful red fruit and chocolate palate, complexity coming from the mix of red cherries, chocolate, supportive acidity and fine fruit tannins. Learn More

A stunning Valpolicella made using the Ripasso method, or 'repass'. Highest quality, high altitude Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone are fermented on the pressed skins of an Amarone ferment, giving higher alcohols, colour and a good degree more complexity. Rich, dark and savoury, this beast offers cherries, chocolate, graphite, minerals, plum, blackberries and blueberries here, along with white pepper and cedar. A stunning red wine that pairs majestically with roast meat and ragu. Learn More

Remarkably intense for a superiore, with dense fruits and excellent acidity tempered by French oak.

The palate is packed with ripe cherries, blackberries, blackberries along with white pepper. Soft and elegant tannins and balanced acidity leave your palate fresh. The second glass beckons.

Dress it up with a quality beef salad, dress it down with gourmet snags or pizza, this wine works well in a variety of settings.

There are black fruits, spices, and enough acid to accentuate the fruits and get your mouth watering. Delicious. Learn More

A classic Vintage of Bernoota, with the oak dialed back slightly and the fruit impressively powerful. Black fruits and spice, chocolate, vanilla, and plenty of fine-grained tannins. One of Australia’s great red wine bargains! Decant this one, serve with a powerful protein, or both! Will cellar for 10+ easily. Learn More

The original Langhorne Creek plantings of Shiraz from 1891 form the backbone and majority of this Shiraz from the brilliant 2021 vintage from Metala. The fruit is rich, the flavours complex and long, showing off the vine age as chocolate, cherries, pepper, blueberries and more cavort long before being wrapped up in quality, cedary oak. As good as the previous vintage was, this is better. Learn More

A beautifully fragrant and mouthwatering nose laden with violets, blackcurrants and dried oregano leads to a voluptuous palate. This is pristine, varietally perfect, medium bodied Cabernet. A joy to drink by itself and with lamb dishes. Learn More

An exceptional, brightly, and intensely fruited medium-bodied Shiraz sourced from 50-year-old Langhorne Creek vines. Bold red and black fruits are bolstered by good acidity. The wine is finished with vanilla, spindles of oak, and fine tannins. Learn More

A cracking and deceptive Sangiovese. What initially appears to be soft and fruity quickly reveals a strong core of fruit and plentiful tannins and acidity. A genuinely excellent Sangio which is a joy to drink now and will improve with age. Learn More
