3x Mount Langi Ghiran Cliff Edge Shiraz 2021 - 14.50% Alc
A mix of lifted aromatics and spice-driven complexity. The bouquet is alive with red and black cherries, ripe raspberry, boysenberry, and a hint of baking spice. The palate follows through with Morello cherry, blackberries, and raspberries, framed by a spice medley of cloves, cardamom, and white pepper.
2x O'Keefe Trail Grand Reserve Heathcote Shiraz 2015 - 14.50% Alc
The palate is densely layered, displaying a textured, full-bodied profile packed with dark fruits and earthy depth. Notes of blackberry, dark cherry, and forest floor give way to a subtle, almost earthy character, evoking the essence of old-vine Shiraz. With fine tannins, impeccable structure, and epic length, this is a wine built for collectors and serious red wine lovers.
2x Normans Regional Series Grampians Shiraz 2022 - 14.00% Alc
This full-bodied Shiraz opens with enticing aromas of blackberry and dark chocolate, followed by layers of plum, black pepper, and spice. The palate is intense yet refined, offering exceptional balance between rich fruit, fine oak, smooth tannins, and fresh acidity.
3x Raptor Bird Of Prey Great Western Shiraz 2022 - 14.00% Alc
Deep dark purple. Rich dark plum and fruitcake aromas with some lovely bright and spicy fruit. Seamless palate with plush rounded red and blue fruit flavours. Sweet plum fruit explodes initially while savoury pepper, tannin and oak ensure the long finish.
2x The Derek Victorian Shiraz 2022 - 14.00% Alc
In the glass, it displays a deep dark purple-black core with a red-brick rim. Aromatically intense, it offers ripe blackcurrant and mulberry, layered with earthy undertones and subtle oak. The palate is superbly balanced, delivering a compelling blend of spicy, sweet, and savoury notes, supported by chalky tannins and fresh acidity.
Mount Langi Ghiran Cliff Edge Shiraz 2021
94 Point Rated - Campbell Mattinson Halliday Wine Companion
"It's spicy and well fruited but mostly it's an exercise in putting all the various components exactly where they should be. Everything here feels exact, and exacting. Red cherried fruit, black pepper notes, integrated cedar oak and drifts of assorted florals, all of which hone to a long, peppery finish. It's mid-weight at most and it's all it needs to be. This is the kind of wine that gives elegance its good name."
94 Point Rated - Ray Jordan Wine Pilot
"Beautiful, perfumed aromas greet from the start, cherry and dark plum with a spicy raspberry nuance. The palate is medium bodied and elegantly presented with those cherries and blackberry flavours emerging with a little sprinkle of pepper and dried herbs. The oak is well-weighted with the fine chalky tannins in support."
93 Point Rated - Gary Walsh The Wine Front
"Quite the dramatic name, is Cliff Edge. Could also be the name of an Australian private eye, and I’m something of a huge fan of the Cliff Hardy novels by Peter Corris. Anyway, that aside, average age of vines is now 25 years, and it gets 30% new French oak.Black cherry, raspberry, five spice, a little cedar oak. It’s medium to full-bodied, with plenty of cherry and forest berry fruit flavour, a fine dusty/peppery feel to tannin, quite fresh, with maybe something a little more savoury in the aftertaste, like black olive. The length is good also. It’s a good Cliff Edge, and also a rock solid expression of regional Shiraz."
92 Point Rated - Erin Larkin Robert Parker Wine Advocate
"The 2021 Shiraz Cliff Edge is rocky and purple on the nose with crushed granite, blackberry, white pepper and raspberry compote. Not hugely complex, but it is hugely satisfying. This is a concentrated, cool-climate Shiraz. It's a great (super) value at around $30 AUD. 14.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap."

94 Point Rated & 5 Stars - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Richly fruited and inviting, the wine shows dark fruit intensity, leather, smoked game, cocoa and toasty oak characters on the nose. The succulent palate delivers excellent weight and plump mouthfeel, splendidly supported by silky texture and beautifully melded tannins, offering terrific drinking. At its best: now to 2030. $175.00. Dec 2024."
Raptor Bird Of Prey Great Western Shiraz 2022
96 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine
"Aromatic with plush cherry fruits and vanillin oak. Palate has wonderful fruit characters with some mint and clove notes, good depth and length."
92 Point Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"Sweetly ripe and fragrant, the inviting bouquet shows dark plum, raspberry, mixed spice, and hazelnut aromas. The palate offers excellent weight and supple mouthfeel, beautifully supported by fine-grained tannins, finishing silky and flavoursome. At its best: now to 2032. $30.00."
The Derek Victorian Shiraz 2022
92 Point Rated - Sam Kim Wine Orbit
"The bouquet is upfront and inviting and shows dark plum, tar, game, and warm spice aromas. It's equally appealing in the mouth, offering ripe fruit intensity with silky texture and polished tannins, making it sturdy and lingering. At its best: now to 2030. $30.00."
