Wine Summary
As the Blue Pyrenees estate's website states "the climate is warm enough to provide concentration and power, yet cool enough to impart vibrancy and elegance, and the resulting wines are truly remarkable.” This is an impressive, smooth and very appealing 58/32/5/5% Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Malbec Cabernet Franc blend from high altitude vines. ”Blackcurrant, toast, fragrant herbs and eucalyptus with cedar oak pulling it all together. This will age beautifully, thanks mostly to its balance, its harmony and its length” writes Campbell Mattinson, scoring it 94pts in The Halliday Wine Companion.

Around the turn of the century Frank Mitolo turned his winemaking hobby into a business, inviting legendary winemaker Ben Glaetzer in to make the wines. Today it boasts a wide range of good quality wines, and a tasting room, restaurant and event space that cost $3 million. This 2020 Jester Shiraz has several 90+ scores and you will enjoy: "Dark cherry, plum, lilac, iodine, a smear of olive and a trail of peppery freshness. Thoroughly impressive at the price.” (Ned Goodwin MW, The Halliday Wine Companion).

Wine Summary
It has been an exceptional few years for Bleasdale, after winning two of the Australian wine industry's most coveted trophies, Paul Hotker being awarded the Halliday 'Winemaker of the Year 2018', and then crowned 2024 Halliday Wine Companion Awards – Winery of the Year. Owned by the Potts family who have made wine here for over 170 years.

Wine Summary
93pt, beautifully mature Margaret River classic from “a superlative vintage” (Ned Goodwin MW, The Halliday Wine Companion), but Ned continues: “…what sets Thompson Estate's wines apart is their understated confidence. The fruit, a jubilant chorus of Cabernet's choir, singing currant, graphite and bay leaf. Merlot provides some juicy fill and Malbec (7%) and Franc (6%) some aromatic high tones.” From a Margaret River Estate set up by cardiologist Peter Thompson in 1997, who planted the first vines.

31 December, 2030
Wine Summary
There is unsurprising complexity in the wealth of flavours and additional 'extras' in this unusual blend of Shiraz, Grenache, Mataro and Cabernet. Ned Goodwin MW The Halliday Companion calls it "Effortless drinking” complimenting its blue and red fruit and notes of herb and tobacco.He's not alone in praising the blend: “Deep, darkly red/purple colour. The bouquet shows meaty, earthy and subtly spiced dark plums, the palate rich and dense, with thickness of texture and a trace of chew on the finish. A more savoury style and a worthy contrast to its stablemate Shiraz Mataro.” Huon Hooke, The Real Review. Inventive and satisfying.

Wine Summary
Tscharke are leading the way with organic wines that reflect the terroir and the personality of the fruit. In their high scoring Shiraz Shiraz Shiraz, which uses fruit from three separate vineyards in the Barossa sub region of Marananga, they bring to life aromas of blueberry and plum with a vibrant fresh quality, while an underlying gamey and dusty savouriness complements the fruit. The palate is explosive and juicy with cherry, plum and forest berries, supported by hints of spices that stretch into the textural finish. Well balanced structure thanks to the crunchy acidity, full body and fine tannins. It boasts scores of 94 and 92pts.
