Business at the front, party at the back with new Mullet Wines by Fourth Wave. Alcohol levels haven’t had a haircut either – Hard Shiraz is 16 percent alcohol and Hard Pinot is 15 percent. Bang for buck. What low- and no-alcohol wine revolution? #mullet #wine #badhairday #alcohol #rebels #WBM #TWTW
Jimmy!!!! Four Winds Vineyard 2023 Shiraz from the Canberra District wins the big one at the Melbourne Royal Wine Awards.

Another victory for family wine business and some timely inspiration for the rest of us. #wine #Melbourne 🥂 @fourwindsvineyard #CanberraDistrict #family #family #business #inspirational
Kyneton Ridge Macedon Ranges Sparkling Shiraz scores 93 points from Mike Bennie. “There’s a legion who appreciate the classic Aussie sparkling Shiraz, and this should delight from hello. Bold on entry with rich dark fruit flavours of blackcurrant and spiced plum, a touch of earthiness follows through, chocolate, mocha and woody spice likewise in its midst. Bubbles form into a delightful creamy mousse and it’s gently palate staining to boot. It does the trick and then some.” $40. @kynetonridgeestate @macedonrangeswine #KynetonRidge #MacedonRanges
Barratt Uley Vineyard Piccadilly Valley Chardonnay 2022 scores 93 points from Tyson Stelzer. “From one of the founding vineyards planted in the Piccadilly Valley in 1983, this is a Chardonnay that captures the cool elegance of the 2022 season at 550m elevation. Focused, crystalline acidity and grapefruit tang energise rich peach and fig flavours, neatly backed by creamy French oak. Well balanced and approachable from the outset, it will confidently hold for some years in the cellar.” $42. @barrattwines @adelaidehillswine #Barratt #Piccadilly #AdelaideHills #cool #elegance #balanced #wine ❤️
