I even dropped my "bargain of the year" tip. Listen in here
Wines to look out for this week:
Warramate Black Label Shiraz 2012 ($25)
Classy stuff. A wine you wish you had on tap. Black fruits and baked plums, but just think buckets of blackberries and lots of them! A delicately satisfying cool climate Shiraz which is super soft and super generous. As time passes, a savoury edge to the deliciously juicy palate appears with everything bound up by some flirtatious spice punching through to a long and flavoursome finish. Definitely a great pick up for $25.
Water Wheel Wines 5 Rounds Baringhup Shiraz 2012 ($20)
This is a wine I'd love to go toe to toe with time and time again. A ripping bargain for twenty bucks. The 5 Rounds is a tribute to what Water Wheel has dealt with over five vintages. I refer to drought, frost and fire, flood, the dog died and then the resurrection all within five years. A cracking wine which is rich and generous. Big and bold fruits are joined by a eucalypt and mint touch. Finishing super fine with soft supple tannins, you'd be hard pressed finding value this good anywhere.
