With all the talk about moderation and responsible consumption of alcohol sweeping the world, it makes sense to package wine in smaller formats or at least have them as an option. Sisters Renee Murphy and Adele McCreery are setting up a business called Half Sisters, where half bottles will be the only offering. #wine #HalfSister #winebusiness #WBM Subscribe to WBM - Australia’s Wine Business Magazine.
Mount Langi Ghiran Grampians Talus Shiraz 2021 scores 94 points from Tyson Stelzer. “The cool 2021 season sets a beautiful profile of pure blueberry fruits and elevates the signature black pepper of Langi. The juicy and glossy mood of this label perfectly contrasts the fine-boned style of the season, impeccably structured with super-fine tannins. Perfect to drink now, while its Mast and Langi siblings rest in the cellar.” $60. @mtlangighiran @grampianswine #MountLangiGhiran #Grampians #beautiful
