estate The Lone Goose Barossa Valley Shiraz Viognier 2021 scores 95 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A mellow, rich and ripe style done in a higher class, regional style. Violet, plum and dark cherry perfume, lifted by exotic spice and a hint of stone fruit and coconut. Supple, silky and super glossy, black fruits woven with florals and savoury cedar. Fine, brushed velvet tannins give shape. There’s a slickness overall to this wine, in form and feel. Generosity and finesse.” $90. @schubertwines @barossawines @mybarossa #mellow #rich #ripe 🙌

Gundog Estate Rare Game Hunter Valley Shiraz 2023 scores 94 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “Good form here. Perfume of blackberry, plum and violet with pepper, cedar and graphite undertones. The palate is plush, medium bodied and layered with dark fruits, olive tapenade and smoky spice. Tannins are firm yet velvety, acidity bright. Depth and savoury complexity lead to a long, trailing, spicy finish. Gosh, this drinks well.” $80. @gundogestate @huntervalley.wine #GunDog #HunterValley #depth #complexity ❤️

Voyager Estate Margaret River Chardonnay 2024 scores 95 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “This is fine wine territory from hello. Scents of white peach, grapefruit and nectarine interlace with cashew, nougat and a flicker of struck match. The palate is powerful yet elegant, layered with more stonefruit offset with creamy lees and nutty savouriness. A silken, concentrated texture drives long, with fine acidity keeping the wine tight, precise and refreshing. Yep.” $70. @voyagerestate @margaretriver.wine #powerful #elegant #precise #refreshing ❤️

Hutton Vale Farm Single Vineyard Shiraz 2021 scores 95 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “All the class. Aromas of blackberry, plum and blueberry with pepper, clove and smoky spice in tow. The palate runs a similar line of notes, feels plush and concentrated, dark and dense with smooth tannin and a cool, spicy finish. A very serious, layered shiraz with intensity, balance and a savourines in a harmonious flow. So satisfying.” $95. @huttonvalefarm @edenvalleysa #HuttonVale #EdenValley #class #intensity #balance #Wine 🙌

Schubert Estate Goose-Yard Block Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021 scores 95 points in WBM. “Ultra serious. Brooding aromas of blackberry, plum and blueberry with cedar, cocoa and graphite. This is powerful, layered with dense dark fruits, mocha and earthy spice. Firm yet wide, grainy tannins provide structure. Powerhouse stuff, the wine is full-bodied, concentrated and polished with lip-smacking ripeness and richness well judged overall.” $150. @schubertwines @mybarossa @barossawines #powerhouse #ripeness #richness #BarossaValley 🙌
