The 2019 Dandelion Twilight of the Adelaide Hills Chardonnay offers lemon zest and citrus flowers tumble forward, followed by a rising aromaticity of green succulents and newly opened cactus flowers at midnight. The structure holds more mineral and savoury salts, there is a rolling citrus flavour and texture that draws the wine out to a very long and lingering finish. Flavours at after-palate are all just-ripe white nectarine and mandarin peel.

The 2017 Langmeil Barossa Black Beauty Malbec features elegant aromas of blue fruits and rhubarb with violets and spice. The palate showcases flavours of juicy blue fruits with herbal and brambly spice and fine, savoury tannins adding to the mouthfeel. The fresh and bright fruit flows through with a slight savoury and spicy finish. Rich, generous and with pedigree vineyard sources, this wine shows just how amazing malbec can be.

The Rosenthal the Marker Shiraz 2018 offers a lifted bouquet of bramble fruits, plum and spice with subtle savoury oak. Full round mouthfeel of dark fruits, cherry and blueberry. The mid-palate is rich with well integrated fine tannins, supported by complex elegant oak. Frankland River shiraz with all of it's power and grace. Rich and round with fine tannins this is one to enjoy with family and friends.

The 2019 Heirloom McLaren Vale Touriga offers aromas of graphite and lead, galvanised iron, fountain pen ink, lavender, rosemary, plum skin, dried tangerine peel and slate. The front-palate bursts with undiminishing fruit plushness, cranberry, blueberry, boysenberry, mulberry and reduced plums. The acid and the tannins - the latter which are so infinitely fine - drive the line and length of this powerful yet friendly red wine. It is beguilingly approachable and yet also savoury. A rewarding and satisfying finish.

The Driftwood Single Site Chardonnay 2018 displays complex aromas of white stone fruits, lemon sorbet, orange blossom, frangipani, vanilla yogurt, butterscotch and toasted walnuts. The palate is lined with layers of creamy texture, crunchy vibrant pure fruit and fragrant floral flavours bound by well-integrated complementary French oak that lingers on the tongue. Delicate phenolics dance with grapefruit pith and lemon juice which gives way to a driving mineral backbone, resulting in a wine of great length, focus and poise.

The Wild Pixie Shiraz 2016 has a nose that is quite closed initially, but slowly evolves to reveal white pepper, cloves and five-spice. On the palate, there's masses of dark plums and mulberries, with some pretty serious tannin. The finish is mouth-watering and long, with lots of spice, and lots of acidity.

The Vasse Felix Filius Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 carries the structure, power and tannins of classic cabernet in an earlier drinking, more forward style from fruit sourced from each of the Vasse Felix vineyards. This wine offers aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry and coffee mocha on the nose. The palate showcases blackcurrant, raspberry and earthy complexities with fine dry dusty tannins. A comfortable, soft, juicy body and tannin profile finishes the wine fresh and long.
