This is a name you perhaps don’t know but these Stonehaven wines seriously impressed us for their polished nature and their outstanding value – particularly this Limited Release Shiraz.

Coming from the heart of Wrattonbully, one of the Limestone Coasts quiet achievers, this 96-point beauty is a rich yet modern take on Aussie Shiraz.

It’s classic SA Shiraz with bold, juicy flavoursblackberries, plums, and a crack of peppery spicewoven through with subtle oak that brings everything together. Its got a lovely silky texture and balanced tannins that keep it smooth and drinkable, but with enough structure to make it really sing.

For $25, youre getting serious qualitythis wine easily punches well above its weight. It’s the perfect mid-week high-quality quaffer.

“Small-batch vinification with prefermentation maceration, extended skin contact and barrel fermentation might have been an exercise in winemaking prowess, but in fact is more than that, the quality also reflecting an excellent vintage. The tannin structure is exemplary, fruit welded to a long palate.”
– James Halliday (Halliday Wine Companion)
