Plus don't miss 2 other Bargains under $10 including Top 50 Global value of the year!  Quantities are limited so scroll down for the tasting notes and reply to this email to reserve yours today.

WORLD WINE CHAMPIONSHIPS AWARD: Gold Medal

"Deep purple color. Rich aromas of ripe blueberries, pink peppercorn, and vanilla cream with a silky fruity medium-to-full body and tangy sweet tangerine, spice cake, eucalyptus mint and mineral finish. A vibrantly delicious shiraz that stands out from the crowd."
Drink now to 2020.

 

A blend of 98% Shiraz & 2% Viognier, this richly concentrated Barossa Shiraz is indicative of the style for which Australia's top production region is famous. The wine is dark in color, rich and dense. There are ample tannins balanced by the powerful fruit. You will note the hints of blackberries, mint, and eucalyptus flavors upfront and in the finish.

Try Rubus Barossa Shiraz with rich dishes like lamb shank, Osso bucco, beef steak or roast duck.
 
Thorn-Clarke Milton Park Chardonnay 2013

 

Bottle $11.99 15% off mix 6 $10.79

20% off mix 12 $9.59 
Great Value Chardonnay from the producer that brings us the incredible Shotfire wines! 
The color is a rich vibrant green. The nose shows lifted clean, sweet fruit of apricot and peach. The palate is medium to full bodied and exhibits predominantly peach and nectarine flavors, with cloves and cardamom evident from the use of a small amount of French oak. The wine finishes full and long with a nice balance of sweet fruit and creaminess. Drink now.

 

 

Thorn-Clarke Milton Park Shiraz 2012

Wine Spectator 88 Points Smart Buy and Best Value + TOP50 GLOBAL VALUE OF THE YEAR 2013

"

Fresh, focused and taut, with firm tannins around a lively core of blueberry, currant and mocha flavors, persisting against the texture. Drink now through 2017."   

 

Aged for 12 months in American oak barrels. The wine is deep and rich smelling with dark fruits, plums and spice with some good oak. There is very rich fruit on the palate with plums, blackberry and sweet spice from the oak. The palate is vibrant and young with a flavorsome viscous mouthfeel which will develop complexity with time. There are some slightly chewy tannins which will soften with time and there is great length of fruit flavor.
