McPherson wines are so approachable and classically Aussie they almost shake you by the hand and say ‘G’day!’ It’s that friendly charm – together with bold, super juicy flavours – that’s made every ‘Big Mack’ red so popular, vintage after vintage. Leading Australian critic James Halliday also highly rates the cellar and its wines, noting that they offer “very good value”.
Since 2012, Andrew's handed over the hard graft of winemaking to the talented Jo Nash, though he's still very much involved. This is her tribute to the boss. Using 2020's best Shiraz grapes, she's aged the wine in oak to lend a sleek layer of vanilla to the big black fruit. With velvety black fruit and sweet spice, it's a winner with hearty winter warming dishes or steak.

You see, we kept meeting young gun winemakers who had access to tiny parcels of prime fruit which they wanted to craft into small-batch, character-laden wines – and we wanted to encourage them! With no rules to adhere to, these talented winemakers produced astounding wines that dazzled the critics: "Avant-garde and highly successful" (James Halliday), "Australian genius … made with passion" (Jancis Robinson MW), "Must be tasted to be believed" (Robert Parker). RedHeads nowadays has much bigger premises in the South Australia's world-famous Barossa, but it is uniquely designed to produce small batch fermentations, just like they did in the old days. The 1888 is their flagship Barossa Shiraz and it's a beauty, deep, dark and decadently intense – the kind that made the Barossa famous. Make sure you go and visit them in the Barossa. They'd love to show you around.
Famous since the 19th century, Barossa Shiraz is a classic on the international stage, and Peter Lehmann is one of best known producers. The Pastor’s Son has knockout richness and depth, with lots of dense blackberry, dark chocolate and spice.

A new addition to Sam Trimboli’s multi-award-winning list of wines. Inspired by a famous bushranger who stepped into folklore. Mostly Shiraz, it’s bursting with juicy bramble fruits and smoky spice. Bold and moreish.
The judges at the China's Wine & Spirits Best Value Awards were impressed by this rich, spicy Shiraz, unanimously awarding it a Gold. It’s from John Quarisa, who for many years made wine for the biggest names in Oz, winning both the Jimmy Watson and Stodart Trophies. Today, with the help of his wife Josephine, he crafts winners like this. ‘Passion is Everything’ is their motto, and, after just over a decade in operation, their winery in New South Wales boasts four stars from Aussie wine guru James Halliday. He describes the “exceptional value for money provided by the wines” and is full of praise for this red. It’s deliciously easy going, but still packs a punch of luscious ripe fruit. A sure bet for a bbq, a roast or a hearty bake.
