Wirra Wirra Church Block McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz Merlot 2023 scores 92 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “The cool 2023 season has drawn out detail and focus in Cabernet Sauvignon, true to Church Block’s mandate of upholding varietal cues and structure. This is one for the ages, with concentrated blackcurrant fruit and dark chocolate oak united on a strong, fine framework of enduring tannins. A bargain cellaring special.” $25. @wirrawirrawines @mclaren_vale #WirraWirra #McLarenVale #92 ❤️

Mecklen Barossa Valley Old Vine Grenache 2023 scores 92 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “From the personal vineyards of the talented Bernard Hickin (retired Jacob’s Creek chief winemaker), this is the product of a small clutch of vines more than 100 years of age in the Cockatoo Valley. It’s been sensitively matured in old French oak barrels, providing texture and fine-grained tannin structure while upholding the juicy berry fruits that characterise Grenache.” $40. @mecklenwinesbarossa @barossawines #OldVine #Grenache #BarossaValley ☺️🙌
