Bendigo Shiraz 2008 Cleanskin
Intense red, carmine and medium limpidity. Very good intensity, mostly showing dark fruits(cassis liqueur, plum, black olive), followed by floral, (iris, violet), spicy (cinnamon, pepper) notes. after aeration the slight reductive character disappears to leave space to more fruit (apricot, fresh almond), some animal nuances and more spice. The intensity is as high as the diversity of aromas.
Sidewood Estate Stablemate Adelaide Hills Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Flavours of dark berries and cocoa spice. Finish with firm chocolate tannins.
Tanunda Hill Reserve Barossa Valley Cabernet Merlot 2014
Rich dark red with violet notes. Rich cassis, dark chocolate and red berry notes on the nose. Soft silky blackberry core with dark plum notes from the Merlot. well integrated oak give a soft lingering finish.
Harcourt Valley Vineyards Mt Camel Range Heathcote Shiraz 2016
Harcourt Valley Vineyards sources some excellent fruit grown on these soils and crafts the wine with minimal intervention to reflect the terroir from where it comes. The wine shows a typical deep red hue that you would expect from the region, however the palate delivers something a little more unexpected.
It shows a medium weight with a surprising softness and elegance. The use of French and American oak gives some vanillin characters to the dark fruit flavour of the wine.
Kakaba Reserve Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2017
Bright, pale lemon straw. Fresh herbaceous lift with grapefruit notes and a flinty minerality. Delicate with lime-like fruit and a fresh mint and herb lift. Textural elements add complexity leading to a dry acid finish.
Woodside Park Vineyards Adelaide Hills Sparkling Chardonnay Pinot Noir Nv
The palate is soft and creamy with a vibrant bead. The underlying mineral acidity carrying through hints of citrus and stonefruit, finishing with clean, crisp acidity.
Gotham Clare Valley Riesling 2016
Riesling from a single vineyard in the Clare Valley has been picked during the cool Valley nights to help preserve the crisp fruit freshness and natural acidity. This Riesling combines lifted aromas of citrus fruits, floral notes and lychee undertones with crisp lemon and lime flavours, producing a balanced wine with complexity and length.
Bendigo Shiraz 2008 Cleanskin
This elegant Shiraz is typical of the terroir-driven wines made by this producer. Matured in French oak barriques for 18 months.
Sidewood Estate Stablemate Adelaide Hills Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Picked solely from the Maximilians vineyard at Verdun. Gently pressed, barrel matured and fermented in French oak for 18 months. Estate bottled.
Tanunda Hill Reserve Barossa Valley Cabernet Merlot 2014
The 2014 season was generally warm which allowed the grapes to ripen and develop strong flavours. A soft and smooth Barossa Cabernet (75%) and Merlot (25%) blended classically with some extended skin contact to soften the palate. This wine matured in older American oak barrels for 15 months to allow the fruit aromas to develop and the tannins to naturally soften.
Kakaba Reserve Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2017

Gotham Clare Valley Riesling 2016
Mild temperatures and generous rainfall in late summer slowed ripening, thereby allowing time for parcels of fruit to be harvested at their best. The quality of fruit for this vintage was outstanding.
Bendigo Shiraz 2008 Cleanskin
93 Points Jeremy Oliver, Wine Annual
An earthy, rustic shiraz whose dusty, spicy and meaty bouquet of small red and black berries, dark plums and gentle oak revels subtle nuances of graphite and mineral plus a faint herbal note. Full to medium-bodied it’s slow to emerge from the glass, unfolding spicy layers of blackberries, mulberries, dark plums and dark chocolate framed by firm, powdery tannins. It finishes long and earthy, a vivacious core of flavour and a soft acidity.
91 Points James Halliday Wine Companion
Deep purple-red; has much in common with the Rams Horn Block; while still built around savoury black fruits, is a little more fleshy.

93 Point Rated Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Sweetly fruited and beautifully fragrant, the bouquet shows blackcurrant, spiced cherry, vanilla, mint chocolate and toasted almond characters. The palate is equally delightful, displaying excellent fruit purity and intensity, backed by silky mouthfeel and fine chalky tannins. Flavoursome and delicious. At its best: now to 2025. AU$25.00. www.sidewood.com.au. Dec 2018."
Tanunda Hill Reserve Barossa Valley Cabernet Merlot 2014

Harcourt Valley Vineyards Mt Camel Range Heathcote Shiraz 2016
93 Points James Halliday Wine Companion
"Medium to full-bodied with red and black berry flavours clipped with both gum leaf and saucy, spicy oak. It's soft, it offers ample flavour, it's generally well balanced and it takes its alcohol in its stride. Ticks in all the main boxes."

1847 Chateau Yaldara Wines Grand Pappy's Barossa Valley Shiraz 2016 ($220)
Beresford Grand Reserve McLaren Vale Shiraz 2016 ($180)
Kakaba Reserve Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc 2017
90 Points James Halliday Wine Companion
"Machine-harvested in the early morning, destemmed, 2 days cold soak, open-fermented, mlf completed in used French oak, matured for 9 months. The impact of the used oak is not obvious on the bouquet, but does impart texture on the palate. This gives the wine room to move when food choices come into play."
Woodside Park Vineyards Adelaide Hills Sparkling Chardonnay Pinot Noir Nv
90 Point Rated, James Halliday Wine Companion
"The pinot noir comes through strongly with its strawberry fruit in what is a young wine with good mousse, its balance and length portents for the future."
90 Points Patrick Eckel, Wine Reviewer
A faintly stained salmon hue in the glass with a nose of citrus, wild strawberry and subtle biscuit notes. The palate is dominated by racy and punchy red apple with a lemon zest acidity that gives a sherbet like character in the mouth when mixed with the fine persistent bubbles. There is texture and grip of understated grapefruit that melds with a return of red apple to finish. The wine lingers with slate like acidity. Very good value for money

92 Points & Special Value James Halliday Wine Companion 2018
"From the delicate mix of lime and lemon blossom, zest and juice with honeydew melon, to the chalky acidity and almost gentle palate, there's plenty to savour here."
