Bethany Creek Shiraz
Regular price: £18.75
Flavour Profile
Tasting notes
In 1981, fifth generation brothers Robert and Geoff established Bethany Wines. They built a winery in the quarry where the early pioneers had hewn stone for their homes. This classic Barossa Shiraz has a nose of dark, briary fruits and lifted spice and is followed by a palate with rich, fine tannins providing exceptional structure. The finish is long, juicy and filled with dark berry fruit and spice.

Schwarz Wine Co. Nitschke Block Shiraz
Regular price: £35.75
Flavour Profile
Tasting notes
Winemaker Jason Schwarz adopts a hands off approach to his winery and has developed relationships with some of Barossa's finest winemakers over the years, allowing him to access some of the region's premium old vine fruit. Wild yeast, whole bunches and old, dry grown vines demonstrate the coda of contemporary Barossa. A sweet note of red pastille, licorice root and smoked meats and tannins hide the wine's savoury tones at first sip. A highly aromatic, full bodied and contemporary expression of Barossa shiraz.
