Australian multi region case – mixed

Philip Shaw The Idiot Shiraz

Shiraz from the Orange region is reminiscent of the wine produced in Northern Rhone, France. The wine displays distinct bright spice with a fine pepper character typical of cooler regions.

Tamar Ridge Devils Corner Sauvignon Blanc

Pronounced aromas of fresh cut grass with a wash of zesty lemons and a drizzle of asparagus. The fresh cut grass flows through to the palate with a hint of leafy green herbs. Overall a wine that is bursting with gentle mouthfilling fruit flavours while leading to a finish that is crisp and refreshing.

H&V Eden Valley Chardonnay – this delicate chardonnay offers a lovely balance of fruit with precise winemaking and cool barrel maturation preserving the piercing and pristine flavours within.

The Chardonnay grapes were picked at optimum ripeness to make a stylish but complex white wine with great varietal definition. The colour is delicate green, gold and the bouquet shows hints of freshly cut white peach and toasty nuances derived from barrel fermentation in high quality French oak hogsheads. The palate is tightly structured with a long, dry finish making this a wine that can be enjoyed now or cellared with confidence for another 4-5 years if so desired during which time it will become richer and more golden in colour.

The Yalumba Eden Valley Viognier is rich and luscious, with intense stone fruit – particularly white peach and apricot flavours, finishing with an aromatic citrus freshness. This wine will continue to grow and develop in the bottle, firstly showing enhanced apricots and spice, then after a couple of years, honey flavours and toast.

Tim Adams Bluey’s Block Grenache has lifted berry aromas and flavours, complexed by typical greenache spiciness. It is a mouth filling wine with supple tannins and a long fruit driven finish. Enjoy with a wide range of meats.

Langmeil Three Gardens Shiraz Mourvedre Grenache

Ruby in colour, with a wonderful nose of plum, raspberry and caramel with a supple and silky palate. Delicious wine with a lingering finish. A real winner!

Old Barossa vignerons referred to their vineyards as gardens. The Three Gardens is a contemporary blend of Shiraz, Mataro and Grenache – traditional varieties grown in the Barossa since the 1840s. The best characteristics of each variety have been chosen to create this unique premium red blend.
These three varieties have provided inspiration for the Barossa since the 1840s and when blended together they are responsible for some of the great wines of the world. Maturation in seasoned oak for twelve months ensures the fruit and spice isn’t overpowered, retaining the finesse.

Cellaring: 2016 – 2021

An early and fast vintage for the Barossa Valley had Langmeil at full fermentation capacity for three and a half weeks meaning 75% of our grape intake in less than a month, phew! The later ripening varieties like Grenache and Mataro still took their time and of course Eden Valley Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon are always late, so vintage soon wound down to a leisurely pace ending in the middle of April. Overall 2015 was an excellent vintage with great flavour, colour and intensity across the board.
