This well-crafted Cabernet Sauvignon puts a lot into the bottle and the glass. The warmth-loving grape is obviously very much at home in the vineyards of South Eastern Australia, where sun is abundant, water is scarce and winemaking is robust.

You’ll be drawn into the aromas of raspberry jam and chocolate, and that exotic note of eucalyptus. Flavors of dark currants and raspberry play over layers of warm spice and cinnamon.

South Eastern Australia is home to 95% of Australia’s national vineyard, and nice, round Chardonnay is one of the most reliable expressions of the Aussie wine style. Accessible, flavorful, versatile. This wine is the epitome of “fruit-forward.”

A full array of pineapple and tropical fruit aromas, followed by ripe melon, citrus, pear, red apple flavors. A little toasted oak in the smooth finish.

South Eastern Australia is famous for its “wines of the sun.” Rich, ripe wines that are loaded with flavor and value. This Merlot is a good example of that genre: solid but soft, good winemaking.

All the Merlot-ish berry aromas and flavors are here. Ripe cherry and red and black berries. An herbal highlight adds interest before the smooth finish of vanilla and toasted oak.

The Rise of Riesling is underway worldwide, as this wonderful food wine is rediscovered by winemakers and wine lovers alike. Aussies have been growing it since 1838. With elaborate dancing flavors and moderate alcohol, this wine has something for everyone.

Floral and citrus on the nose, with flavors of lime, spice and pears. Try this one with any kind of spicy food, or as a nice, light aperitif in the afternoon.

South Eastern Australia really set the standard for enjoyable Syrah (oh, excuse us, Shiraz), and put this variety onto tables in a big way around the world. The grape is a powerhouse of flavor and texture that thrives in the bright sun and ancient soils Down Under.

Very dark, almost purple color, with a nice medium body. Bold flavors of black cherry and dark berries, with the classic notes of pepper and spice. Soft tannins.
