  • Westend Outback Shiraz 2005 NZD $14.95 NZD $10.95 Out of stock
    This outstanding Shiraz has won Gold at the 2005 Perth Royal Wine Show and by popular demand we thought we would bring it to you again this week. Most of you will know this wine, but for those of you that don't, it is from Griffith N.S.W. from the Westend producer that we have been importing for years. The wine has a dark cherry colour with a bouquet of pepper, black olive and candid fruit. On the palate it displays a Rhone style structure of crushed black peppercorns, dark chocolate with hints of oak. Excellent with roasts or BBQ dishes. Drink now or cellar for the next 2-3 years.
  • Westend Richland Shiraz 2007 NZD $17.95 NZD $15.95 Out of stock
    Our brand new arrival of the Westend Estate Richland Shiraz 2007 which this particular producer has been awarded a number of accolades including the "Best wine in New South Wales" at the 2005 NSW Wine awards in Sydney, Australia. After beating stiff competition from 676 other wines, some of them costing 4 times as much. It has a big rich purple colour with hints of lavender, bosom berry with a lovely purple hue. Made in the traditional style in open fermenters, the wine is intensely varietal with spicy black and white pepper, olive grove and an abundance of berry fruit. Excellent now or over the next 3-5 years.
  • La Puerta Syrah 2006 NZD $19.95 NZD $18.95
    Another example of the terrific value for money to be found from this country, they do not only concentrate on one grape variety and hope for the best, but they take the regional approach with various grape varieties some of them very much local and some international and match them with a specific terroir to produce unique and distinctive wines. This Syrah offers wonderful notes of fresh cracked pepper, green olive, tarragon infused olive oil and beautiful ripe tannins. What I like most about it is the fine balance between power, finesse and texture that it exhibits, it can be drunk on its own or even better with food.
  • Escobera Jumilla 2002 NZD $21.95 NZD $19.95
    A thoroughly modern and stylish new breed of Monastrell and Syrah. From the region of Jumilla which has been producing outstanding and well priced wines for the last 10 years. Immense colour, ripe and vibrant with a perfume of fleshy fruit and spice, the wine delivers a superb balance of structure, acidity and length. Ideal with BBQ meats, cheeses etc. This is another perfect example of some of the outstanding quality red wines being produced in Spain over the last 10-15 years. Drink now or keep for 3-4 years.
  • Bruno Thierry Cotes du Rhone 2006 NZD $22.95 NZD $19.95

  • Westend 3 Bridges Shiraz 2006 NZD $28.95 NZD $24.95 Out of stock
    This wine has also received more medals than an army general, including a gold at the Perth Wine Show. A glorious vintage which has produced a big, fat and almost chewy Shiraz with intense black pepper and spice, yet with soft, rounded tannins and a long robust, chocolate finish. Keep this one for 5 years, also. Again, we think this is a steal for the price and strongly advise stocking up large.
  • Grant Burge Miamba Shiraz 2007 NZD $34.95 NZD $32.95
  • Coriole Shiraz 2006 NZD $37.95 NZD $34.95
  • Alain Graillot Crozes Hermitage Rouge 2004 NZD $39.95 NZD $36.95
    For anyone out there that loves excellent Syrah, look no further! This is in a league of its own. Out of all the producers that we exclusively import, Alain Graillot has to be one of the greatest innovators not just in the Cotes du Rhone but also in all of France, he is almost entirely responsible for revolutionising Crozes Hermitage as an appellation. The wine is made from 100% Syrah from very low yielding vines averaging 30 years old. The viticulture is quite rustic and artisan therefore allowing the wine to express its true terroir characteristics. On appearance it has a very deep almost black with hints of ruby colour with an array of dry herbs, black olive and roasted red pepper. On the palate it is incredibly big and juicy almost chunky with notes of tarragon and tapenade. The finish is persistent and long emphasizing cracked black pepper corns with hints of leather yet remaining clean with great purity. Drinking at its best between 2007-2011.
  • Alan McCorkindale Syrah 2006 NZD $39.95 NZD $34.95
    A great new addition to Alan's portfolio and a great one it is! As you all mostly know that Alan really is one of the leading winemakers in the country mainly known for his whites but he was lucky enough to source this Syrah from Hawkes Bay and having tried it at various times frankly it’s up there with most New Zealand Syrah which sell for $70-$80. Beautiful purple colour boasting black pepper, dusted white pepper, black olive and a barrage of dark berry fruit. Drinking quite well now but also over the next 3-4 years.
  • Ata Rangi Celebre 2006 NZD $43.95 NZD $39.95
    Célèbre has always played second fiddle to the Pinot Noir from this vineyard but frankly its unusual blend of grape varieties, make it one of the most interesting and provocative wines in the country. Made from Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon which is the minority blend, the wine offers a good spicy backbone with hints of pepper, black olive and savoury notes. The wine even after spending 18 months in oak, is not overly oaked, sweet or jammy but clean and quite focused with good spine and texture. Drink now or cellar for the next couple of years.
  • Kemp Road Cabernet Merlot Syrah 2002 NZD $49.95 NZD $44.95
