Berton Vineyard Riverina Alfresco Lagrein 2024 scores 93 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “This is a wild card and intriguing, especially at the price point. It offers up an inky and vibrant expression, showing off typical black cherry, alpine herb, cola, violet and ferrous notes. Firm tannins bring structure while juicy fruit keeps it engaging and a lift of general minerality strikes a chord. A confident take on Lagrein, delivering character and intensity with impressive balance and drinkability.” $20. @bertonvineyards #Riverina #intriguing #impressive #balance #93 ❤️🙌

Calabria Family Wines Three Bridges Riverina Durif 2024 scores 93 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “Deeply coloured and defiantly robust, this inky red offers blackberry compote, choc-licorice, minty lift and dark woody spice scents and flavours. The palate is muscular but not unwieldy, tannins firm yet ripe. A well-executed Durif that embraces power while maintaining balance and a core of drinkability.” $25. @calabriafamilywines #Riverina #power #balance #drinkability #93 ❤️
