Angove Warboys Vineyard McLaren Vale Shiraz 2021 scores 95 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A prodigious red wine, boldly striking with lush, plush texture, velvety tannins, dark stewed cherry and ripe blackberries dosed with cedar, old spice cupboard woody spices, new leather and aniseed/liquorice in the mix. It flows with authority, somewhat palate staining and intense but with enough tannin chew to reset the palate with each sip. Muscular, done with aplomb.” $50. @angovewine @mclaren_vale #Angove #McLarenVale #lush #plush #95 ❤️
“Promoting the effort and dedication to quality improvement moves the Australian wine image dial in the right direction.” So says Brian Crosser, who is calling for levy reform in the Australian wine industry.

Longview Adelaide Hills Riesling 2025 scores 94 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “Testimony to the mettle and tireless dedication of the Saturno family, this magnificent Adelaide Hills Riesling shows nothing of the battle scars of the driest and fasted season on record. Low-yielding vines hand harvested high on south- and south-east-facing slopes are due their credit, too. I love its cool purity of kaffir lime and granny smith apple, its fruit concentration and most of all its perfectly ripe, high-energy acidity that graces a long and enduring finish. Bravo.” $32. @longviewvineyard @adelaidehillswine #magnificent #94 ❤️
Conte Estate Rock Hill McLaren Vale Shiraz 2022 scores 93 points from Mike Bennie in WBM. “A meaty, dark fruited red with all the McLaren Vale sweet turned earth character, bouquet garni herbal stuff in the mix, some choc-liquorice and a slip of black olive. Sumptuous in feel, generous and ample, though the finish speaks of brightness to counter nicely. Pleasing as.” $25. @mclaren_vale #Shiraz #generous #pleasing #93 ❤️
When budgets are tight and attention is harder to earn, your online store has to do more of the selling on its own. Then it’s about helping your store keep up. Digital marketer Tash Stoodley reports.
