Brass Monkey Shiraz 2017
Rip-roaring Aussie Shiraz from a larger than life winemaker and a (comparatively) cold vineyard, hence the typically Aussie name. Packed with fruit and exceptionally well made – it’s this type of Shiraz that made us all fall in love with Aussie wine.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.
