Critic’s Choice Collection Mixed Dozen

Looking for the best? A recommendation from dedicated wine critics and show judges is always a good start! In this collection you’ll save a chunky $168 on a dozen favourite reds and whites – all with high point scores at $19.99 a bottle.

You’ll find a hearty thumbs up from the likes of Sam Kim (Wine Orbit), David Walker-Bell (Wine Folio), Sally Duncan (Chair of Hawke’s Bay Winegrowers), Australia’s Ray Jordan and others. You’ll also see plenty of Gold medals as well (and yes, there’s a Double Gold, Top Gold and two Trophies too).

In whites, taste a dazzling Pinot Grigio from Italy, then discover mouthwatering award-winners from top regions around Australia, including the Clare Valley, Orange, WA, Coonawarra and Adelaide.

In reds, there’s a fine Portuguese Touriga Nacional, plus five top reds from some of South Australia’s finest estates including Peter Lehmann, RedHeads, Sevenhill Cellars and more. And, of course, those sumptuous Trophy winners in the 96pt Shiraz Grenache Durif from Sam Trimboli and 95pt Angas King.
