"Intense and perfectly balanced"
Halliday Top 100 Wines 2021

Perpetually one of the leaders of Shiraz production in the Canberra District, Eden Road rarely miss with this variety.

They produce a more slipstream, refined style of the variety, looking for the regional blue fruits and meaty spice to shine through.

Winemaker Celine Rousseau approaches the variety with a European sensibility, looking for elegance as well as power from their vineyards around the Lake George region.

If you want a serious example of the cool-climate Shiraz of the Canberra region, this would be the perfect place to start.

"A fun loving wine with high drinkability and charisma."

Bryan Martin's Hilltops Barbera is a picture perfect example of an Aussie take on this Italian stalwart variety.

Barbera finds a happy groove amongst the Ravensworth range. The easy approachability as a fresh young wine, the lack of need for additions, the balance of fruit and savoury characters that Italian varieties offer all suit Bryan's winemaking down to a tee.

A splash of Nebbiolo make it into the blend, taking it further into Piedmonte-comes-to-Aus territory. Perfectly ripe, delicious red fruit and a lovely lick of chewy tannin make this one of the most versatile wines we've seen in a while. Anytime, anywhere. If you're looking for something to take to your next dinner party, this would be a great choice.

With the Australian ‘Burgundies’ of the 50’s 60’s and 70’s as inspiration, Nick Spencer is paying homage to the Classic light bodied Shiraz and Shiraz/ Pinot blends that used to emerge from the Hunter.

This wine lived right in that chilled red, Pizza/BBQ wine zone that is possibly the most exciting category in Aussie wine right now. Sour cherry, cranberry and strawberries served on a palate that is crunchy and vibrant with lovely structure and tannins.

We can’t get enough of this style, or Nick Spencer right now, wines that speak of now.

The White Wolf of Cumbria Red is a Jared Dixon's all-purpose red blend built from Merlot, Shiraz and Tannat.

The three varieties were harvested across three different seasons. The Shiraz and Merlot were picked in 2018 and 2019 and blended with the small Tanat portion from 2017. It fits right in the modern, juicy red wine category. Jam packed with sweet blue fruit and spice - it's hard to see anyone not liking this.

With the smooth and supple drinkability of medium-bodied Merlot taking centre stage, this is a creatively conceived crowd pleaser for all occasions.

Frank van de Loo at Mount Majura is passionate about how well suited Mediterranean varieties work in the Canberra wine district, and this outstanding red blend speaks to this enthusiasm.

It is a blend of Tempranillo, Shiraz and Graciano, the T & G being of Spanish origin, with a particularly successful home in Rioja. Mount Majura may be Australia's best Tempranillo producer, releasing several different varietal wines each year.

There's an intensity to the dark purple/red colour and concentrated palate, with ample ripe dark fruits, fine supporting tannins, and a lip-smacking finish.
