Angove Warboys Vineyard McLaren Vale Shiraz 2021 scores 94 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A serious red on hand. Dark-fruited with layers of blackberry, plum and black olive coupled to mocha, clove and espresso. Tannins are firm yet polished, framing a plush core and the impressive concentration of the wine. There’s a regional warmth, but it’s tempered by spice and earth, finishing long and quietly powerful. To repeat, serious red.” $50. @angovewine @mclaren_vale #94 #Shiraz #powerful ❤️

Calabria Family Wines Alternato Montepulciano Nero d’Avola 2024 scores 93 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A vibrant, Italianate blend bustling with sour cherry, wild raspberry, blood orange tang and a sprig of dried herbs. Juicy upfront and lightly grippy through the finish, there’s a rustic charm here and yet drinkability is on song. Interesting, quietly complex, something out of the box and good.” $45. @calabriafamilywines @barossawines #vibrant #interesting #complex 🍷👏
