17.5/20 Raymond Chan
"Full, near-saturated black-red colour with youthful purple hues. This has an elegantly concentrated and rich nose of ripe blackberry and plum fruit entwined with notes of liquorice and cedary, toasty oak, along with hints of oak resin, eucalypt and chocolate. Medium-full bodied, the fruit flavours are a little restrained, but unfold to show sweet, ripe plum and liquorice notes. Blackberry, earth, cedary oak and eucalypt layers add detail. The mouthfeel is plush and juicy, and balanced by supple tannin extraction lending structure, presence and weight. The wine flows with underlying alcohol power, carrying to a fresh, sustained finish with liquorice and cedar notes. This is a weighty, ripe, supple Shiraz with restrained plum, liquorice and cedary flavours. Match with barbecued and roasted red meats and casseroles over the next 5+ years." Raymond Chan

Evenwood Barossa Shiraz has been our number one selling red wine for the last 7 years. The 2015 is a new vintage and is tasting better than ever. In the glass the wine has deep red and garnet hues. This follows through to a generous nose of spice, mulberry preserve, dark chocolate, mocca and vanilla tones. Complexity builds as the wine opens further with hints of earthy beetroot and tea rose. The savoury palate shows blood plums with sweet spice leading onto soft tannins.

Ripe stone fruits, citrus, brioche, roast cashew and hint of savory mealiness. The palate is dry and flinty with some lovely fleshiness and weight. Smooth with fresh citrus characters and a warm richness balanced by a crisp acidity.

The Bin 28 is possibly one of the best value Australian Shiraz's ever made. The wine is a blockbuster and never disappoints.

Extremely limited, NZ allocation has been cut dramatically for the 2017 release
Only 12 bottles of this iconic wine from one of the best vintages.

Lifted aromas of blackberry, plum and black pepper accompanied by spicy, dark berry fruits on the palate. The finish is long with fine-grained tannins  from  maturation  in both new and seasoned American and French oak barrels. Although drinking well now this wine may be cellared for up to five years from vintage.

4.5 Stars - "This is delightfully appealing on the nose displaying ripe pear, peach, mango and floral characters. The palate is equally attractive with succulent mouthfeel and elegant fruit richness, leading to a lingering smooth finish. At its best: now to 2017." - Sam Kim
Light straw, with a bright clarity. Lifted varietal aromatics of pear and quince fruit flavours. These are underlined with hints of nougat and nutmeg spice. This is a medium bodied wine with a rich, creamy texture to carry the pure fruit and spice flavours. These persist on the long, clean finish.

Silver Medal - Japan Wine Challenge 2017
This is a classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc which is consistently produced in a fuller, riper, softer style that develops well. Clean, fresh and tropical, with fruit from several vineyards situated throughout Marlborough.
Typically pungent with grapefruit, latana and blackcurrant.  The palate is well balanced, sweet-fruited and juicey with tropical fruits and blackcurrant.

The iconic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is brimming with ripe citrus and stone fruit flavours that are framed by sleek and succulent acid architecture
