A little persistence helped launch Australia's wine market, which is now the fourth-largest in the world. Vine cuttings from the Cape of Good Hope were transported to New South Wales in 1788, but wine wasn't available for sale until 1820. It took the next group of settlers to successfully cultivate the grapes. From its humble beginnings, Australia now exports more than 400 million liters of wine a year. Some of the staples are d'arenberg, Elderton, Penfolds and Rosemount. Keep in mind inventory changes daily. Last updated 01/18/10.

07 D'Arenberg 'The Laughing Magpie' Shiraz Viognier McLaren Vale
Winery Notes: Very dark rich-looking appearance with a black-crimson hue suggesting a complex, youthful dry red. The aroma is intense and still quite undeveloped with a floral mix of peach stone, jasmine and cranberry juice overriding dark maraschino cherries, star anise and spiced fruit cake. If you give the wine a vigorous decanting you’ll see amongst the floral & vegetative earthy notes a dominance of white pepper & plum notes mixed with root vegetables such as parsnips and beetroot, along with hints of roasted black tea, black olives and edges of fragrant garden herbs. The palate is full-flavoured with ripe, juicy, soft mouth-filling flavours suggesting beetroot juice, blueberries blackcurrants and red cherries with herbaceous edges that keep the palate in check. The concentration of this wine suggests it will greatly benefit further bottle aging for the medium term and in 10 years or so, depending on storage, it should be at its drinking best.

qty:

"Made from Spanish and Portuguese varietals (Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Souzao), the inky/ruby/purple-hued 2004 The Sticks and Stones offers up aromas of graphite, blueberries, camphor, roasted meats and smoked herbs. It is a rich, full-bodied, exotic red with a singular character that should prove to be relatively long-lived given its tannic structure." 90 points. — Robert Parker

Opaque purple-colored, this Shiraz has fabulous aromatics of smoke, melted tar, licorice, espresso, game, and blueberry compote.

Drink it over the next 10 years." 91 points. — Wine Advocate
39.99
qty:
06 Greenock Creek Apricot Block Shiraz
"Smells almost Port-like, with expansive aromas of fruit cake, maple syrup and chocolate, then delivers a similar array of flavors, although completely dry. Full-bodied, lush and richly textured, this is almost too much, although the intriguing spice notes of cinnamon, clove and allspice help rein in the waves of chocolate and dried fruit. Long, velvety and slightly warm on the finish. Drink now–2015." — Wine Enthusiast

qty:
05 Greg Norman Limestone Coast Shiraz
"Next time you drop a six-stroke lead on the last day of the country club tournament, head for the dining room and order a bottle of this mainstream Shiraz.

qty:
07 Henry's Drive Pillar Box Red
"The 2007 Pillar Box Red, a blend of 65% Shiraz, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Merlot. Purple-colored, it exhibits an expressive nose of spice box, earth notes, blueberry, and black currant.

"The grapes for the 2006 Reserve Shiraz were selected from the best Shiraz parcels used to make Pillar Box Red. They were aged in new oak, 75% French and 25% American. Opaque purple-colored, it offers up a classy bouquet of smoke, vanilla, saddle leather, bacon, and blueberry. This leads to a full-bodied, plush, seamless wine with no hard edges to its lengthy finish. It has the stuffing to evolve for 2-3 years but I can think of no reason for delaying gratification. It is a great value." 92 points. — Wine Advocate
20.99
qty:
07 Henry's Drive Pillar Box White
"This wine starts off a touch rubbery, so give it some air prior to serving if you can. The payoff is a pleasant mix of pear and citrus that's fairly broad on the palate yet balanced, and lengthy, too. This year's blend is 56% Chardonnay, 30% Sauvignon Blanc and 14% Verdelho." 87 points. -- Wine Enthusiast

36.99
qty:
05 Henry's Drive Shiraz Padthaway Reserve
"The 2005 Shiraz Reserve was sourced entirely from estate fruit and was aged in 85% new oak. The wine is a glass-coating purple/black with an alluring perfume of toast, bacon, smoked meat, blueberry and licorice. Deeper and richer than the “regular” Shiraz, it also has enough structure to merit 4-6 years of cellaring. The wine’s finish is long and pure." 93 points. — Wine Advocate. This wine also received a 91 from Wine Spectator.
53.99
qty:
06 Hewitson Ned & Henry's Shiraz
"The purple-colored 2006 Ned & Henry’s Shiraz contains 8% Mourvedre aged in seasoned oak. The nose emits scents of cedar, underbrush, mineral, pepper, blueberry, and blackberry. Medium to full-bodied, it is nicely layered on the palate with plenty of spicy fruit, a smooth texture, and enough ripe tannin to evolve for 2-3 years. Drink this well-priced Shiraz from 2011 to 2020." 91 points. -- Wine Advocate
21.99
qty:
06 Hewitson Old Garden Mourvèdre

05 Kalleske Clarry's Barossa Red
"2005 Clarry’s Red is an old barrel-aged blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Shiraz. It is an Australian version of a French Cotes du Rhone on steroids. Delicious sweet cherry, strawberry, and framboise aromas along with hints of white pepper and spice soar from the glass of this yummy red. Full-bodied, seductive, and filled with pleasure, it is a classic, hedonistic, fruit-driven effort that admirably displays the purity of Barossa Valley fruit. Drink this unmanipulated, uncomplicated 2005 over the next 2-3 years." 89 points. — Wine Advocate

05 Kalleske Shiraz Greenock Barossa Valley
"The 2005 Shiraz “Greenock” is opaque purple-colored with an impressive perfume of toast, smoke, mineral, blueberry, and blackberry. This leads to a full-bodied, powerful, tightly wound Shiraz with tons of spicy blue and black fruit flavors, ample ripe tannins, and a long finish. This big, muscular Shiraz requires 5-7 years of additional cellaring and should drink well through 2030." 93 points. — Wine Advocate

06 McGuigan Bin 2000 Limestone Coast Shiraz
"Relatively light in weight, this Shiraz nonetheless features an attractive array of aromas and flavors, ranging from cola and blackberry to earth and spice. It could use more depth and does turn a bit tart on the finish, but it’s still a solid burger wine." — Wine Enthusiast
12.99
qty:
05 McGuigan Bin 4000 Limestone Coast Cabernet Sauvignon

39.99
qty:
07 Mitolo Jester Cabernet Sauvignon
"The 2007 Jester Cabernet Sauvignon spent 11 months in oak. Purple-colored, the nose reveals smoke, black currant and cassis. This leads to a medium to full-bodied ripe wine with excellent depth and concentration. Currently the wine is a bit tight but 1-2 years of additional bottle age should round it out nicely. It should be at its peak from 2010 to 2017." 90 points. — Wine Advocate
19.99
qty:
06 Mitolo Jester McLaren Vale Shiraz
"The Shiraz lineup begins with 2006 Shiraz 'Jester' which was aged for 12 months in French and American oak. Like the Cabernet, 20% dried grapes were included in the blend. Purple-colored, it offers up an expressive nose of cedar, spice box, smoke, pepper and blueberry. Medium to full-bodied and supple-textured, the wine has a forward personality with layers of spicy fruit and some elegance. It is for drinking over the next 10 years.

19.99
qty:
06 Mitolo Savitar Shiraz McLaren Vale
"The 2006 Shiraz “Savitar” was aged in 100% new oak, predominantly French. Purple-colored, the aromatics are a bit reticent initially, but soon scents of toasty oak, tar, licorice, scorched earth, and blueberry emerge. This leads to a wine which is more structured and less opulent than its peers. It will evolve for a minimum of 8-10 years and drink well through 2040. As a point of reference, the 2002 Savitar (rated 95) was presented. It is considerably more developed aromatically but still has a significant distance to travel prior to reaching its peak." 94points. — Jay Miller, The Wine Advocate

"The 2005 Shiraz G.A.M. (named after the Mitolo children – Gemma, Alexander, and Marco) is a deep ruby/purple-hued effort displaying beautiful blackberry, white pepper, licorice, and toasty oak notes. Rich, full-bodied, and intense, with blueberry and blackberry flavors, sweet tannin, and excellent purity, it is a tour de force in winemaking." 95 points.

09 Mollydooker The Violinist Verdelho
"The current Mollydooker collection begins with the one white wine, the medium straw-colored 2009 Verdelho The Violinist. It was partially barrel-fermented and aged on its lees in barrel and tank.

Creamy textured, round, ripe, and concentrated, this long, tasty wine can be enjoyed over the next 2 years." 90 points. -- Wine Advocate

01 Penfolds Grange Shiraz, South Australia
Winery Notes: Penfolds Grange is a wine of extraordinary dimension and power. Richly textured, intensely concentrated and packed with fruit sweetness, these wines, regardless of vintage, require medium to long-term cellaring.

04 Penfolds Grange Syrah/Shiraz, Barossa Valley
Six bottles available. A blend of 96% Shiraz and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon. "Smooth and seductive, this delivers a full-throated chorus of currant, plum, blackberry and spice flavors, hinting at coffee and cardamom as the finish floats and sails easily over a bed of polished, refined tannins. A touch of black olive balances nicely against it all. Beautifully structured, expressive and very long. Best from 2012 through 2025." 98 Points. — Wine Spectator

qty:
06 Penfolds Koonunga Hill Shiraz-Cabernet
"The Cabernet and Shiraz blends begin with the 2006 Shiraz (70%) – Cabernet Sauvignon (22%) “Koonunga Hill”. Purple-colored, the wine offers meaty black currant, blackberry and blueberry aromas. On the palate the wine exhibits remarkable focus and structure for its humble price. The fruit is grapy and primary as well as intensely flavored. It should evolve for several years and drink well through 2022 if not longer. It is a fantastic value. As an aside, Peter Gago presented a 1976 Koonunga Hill to demonstrate the aging potential of this cuvee. The wine was showing a bit of age aromatically but none on the palate. At age 31, this wine (which probably cost several dollars on release) is right at its peak (my score 94 points)." 91 points. — Jay Miller, Wine Advocate

06 Peter Lehmann Barossa Shiraz
Winery notes: The wine has a deep center with a dark red rim. The bouquet shows lashings of classical Barossa Shiraz chocolate and dark plum aromas, given a gentle lift from the well seasoned French oak notes. It is a robustly structured wine, with mouth-filling generous fruit clothing its firm muscularity. It finishes firm with powdery tannins.

06 Piping Shrike Shiraz
"Piping Shrike is produced at the Charles Cimicky winery. It is usually one of the better values in full-flavored Shiraz. The 2006 Shiraz is purple-colored. The aromatics are muted, but with coaxing, cinnamon, violets, and blueberry emerge. This leads to a full-bodied, mouth-filling, lengthy wine with tons of fruit and flavor. If the nose emerges from its cocoon, my score will appear to be conservative." 89 points. — Wine Advocate

08 Pure Love Wines Layer Cake Shiraz
It's back! This wine flew off our shelves in 2007 because of its great price and its and complex characteristics. It offered juicy raspberry and plum flavors, shaded with granite and mint character weaving through as the finish rolls on nicely. It received a 90 from Wine Spectator. The winemaker didn't produce the wine in 2007 because the crop wasn't up to his standards. Be sure to pick up this great Shiraz before it's too late.

04/05 Shirvington Shiraz, McLaren Vale
"The dense, chewy, rich, deeply-colored 2005 Shiraz is a full-bodied, ripe, intense wine, but does not reveal quite the same thrilling level of quality as the Cabernet. Nevertheless, it is no wimpy wine, boasting 16% alcohol as well as stunning richness and length. Drink it over the next 7-8 years." 93 points. — Robert Parker

06 Shoo Fly Aussie Salute
"Ruby-red. Spicy redcurrant and raspberry aromas suggest that there's more than 25% grenache at play.Explosively fruity, with strong red berry flavors verging on jammy but saved by late-arriving minerality. Expands and deepens on the finish, picking up darker berry and cherry qualities, with gently chewy texture and good length." 88 points. — Stephen Tanzer.

06 Tait The Ball Buster Barossa red blend (1.5L)
"Previous vintages of this wine have been smash hits and the 2006 The Ball Buster is a lock to continue the trend. It is a 15,000 case cuvee, all of which was basket-pressed, a labor-intensive process not commonly associated with a wine in this price category. The wine is composed of 78% Shiraz, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot aged for 12 months in used French and American oak. Purple-colored, it exhibits a classy bouquet of cedar, earth, tar, espresso, blueberry, black currants and licorice.

07 Torbreck Woodcutters Shiraz, Barossa Valley
"Production of the 2007 Woodcutter’s Shiraz was greatly impacted by the drought conditions in Barossa. Yields for this bottling were under two tons per acre and only 11,000 cases were made; down from 27,000 in 2006. The wine was aged in large oak foudres for one year. Purple-colored it reveals aromas of earth, spice, and blueberry in a straightforward, full-flavored style. It will make pleasant drinking over the next five years." 89 points. — Wine Advocate

04 Two Hands Aerope, Barossa Valley
"The 2004 Aerope Grenache (90% Grenache and 10% Shiraz) is fashioned from the firm’s finest barrels. Although it boasts beautiful kirsch liqueur notes along with stunning elegance and richness, the day I tasted it, it was more closed and less expressive than some of its less expensive siblings. It didn’t even evolve as it sat in the glass, so I’m sure I saw it at a more diminished state." 90 points. Robert Parker. 155 cases imported.

04 Two Hands Lily's Gardern Shiraz
"Even better than the Harry & Edward’s Garden is the 2004 Shiraz Lily’s Garden from McLaren Vale. With this cuvee, about 25% new American oak is added to the regime of French wood. Full-bodied with stunning, dusty, loamy soil characteristics interwoven with blackberry, cassis, cherry, and plum-like fruit, this rich, pure, intense Shiraz should be consumed over the next 10-12+ years." 95 points. — Robert Parker

The aromatics are unusually expressive for a wine in this price category.

This tasty wine will provide pleasure over the next 4-6 years." 90 points. — Wine Advocate's Jay Miller

A Wine Enthusiast's Editor's Choice: "A unique blend of spice and blueberry sets this Shiraz apart from the pack, and it pulls away even further due to a lush, creamy texture and long, mouth-coating finish.
