Berton Vineyard High Eden The Bonsai Shiraz 2021 scores 93 points from Mike Bennie. “Dense blackberry, dark chocolate, green olive, twiggy oak and woody spice unfurls with richness and plush texture. The palate is warm but well-shaped, tannins firming the edges and lending a little extra persistence. A classic Barossa Shiraz expression done with gusto in mind but polish and a strong sense of drinkability in its heft.” $60. @bertonvineyards @barossawines #Shiraz #classic ❤️🙌

Mount Horrocks Clare Valley Nero d’Avola 2023 scores 93 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “From vines now 15 years of age, Stephanie Toole’s Nero is more effortless and graceful than ever in the cool and classic 2023 season. I love its pure red cherry and cranberry fruits, its rose petal lift, its limestone-fine tannins and its tangy, driving acidity.” $48. @mounthorrocks @clarevalleywine #effortless #graceful #pure #93 ❤️🙌
