Australia’s Barossa Shiraz is bold and weighty. For a gorgeous red, turned down just a notch, try Deep River. It's from the cooler, gentle rolling hills of the McLaren Vale, producing here seductive black fruit and liquorice complexity.
Shiraz is the most widely planted grape in the McLaren Vale. Indeed, along with the Barossa, it produces some of Australia’s finest Shiraz. All deliciously ripe black fruits perfectly balanced by a seam of freshness, thanks to cooling coastal winds. We reserve our Deep River label for fabulous one-off parcels our buyer out there, Dan Parrott, gets to hear about and snaps up when the offer is good.
This is a knockout red blended from a trio of exceptional McLaren Vale vineyards. Traditionally fermented, this Shiraz is silky with luscious layers of ripe blackberry, dark cherry and juicy plum fruit, with gentle vanilla spice from oak-ageing. The ideal red to pull out for a Sunday roast, a hearty lasagne or a sizzling steak at summer barbecues.

This red comes from the prestigious Leogate Estate. Just a decade old, it's one of the smartest wineries in the Hunter Valley and has been awarded five red stars by Oz’s top critic, James Halliday, nine years on the trot. In his words: an “Outstanding winery producing wines of exemplary quality”. No wonder their bottles can reach £60+ and are usually destined for top restaurants in Sydney.
But word reached our buyer that a small parcel from high-altitude, top spot Central Ranges needed a home – fast. (One of the many wine casualties of the past year.) That’s when Dan came to the rescue. Using the finest Shiraz, aged in best French oak, it bursts with layers of raspberry, peppery spice and complex, earthy tones. An ideal choice with steak.
