If you adore high quality Aussie Shiraz, you will be over the moon with this highly awarded McLaren Vale red. It’s from Marley Farm, who search out the best grapes from their extensive network of grower mates. In 2016, the team were particularly impressed by those from Karl Seppelt’s single vineyard in the McLaren Vale. The region is renowned for its Shiraz, rich and powerful but retaining a lovely elegance, too. Add in the pedigree of the Seppelt family name (they’ve been leading the field for over 160 years) and no wonder this wine has won so many top gongs. Beautifully ripe and smooth, full of black fruit and chocolate character, this is a fine red. And as the label suggests, it’s a winner with lamb, roasted or at your next barbecue.

"Five Golds are a clear sign that this is a 5-Star McLaren Vale Shiraz. Gorgeous now, but no rush" Dan Parrott
