Save a huge $228 on a delicious, Gold-medal, 91pt Aussie classic red exclusive from a TOP Aussie estate, and Clare Valley winemaking royalty. Australia’s Clare Valley boasts many exceptional highly respected family wineries. 5 Red Star-rated Pikes is one the best. It was set up in the 1980s by viticulturist Andrew, wife Cathy, and winemaking brother Neil, from a family which had been making beer and soft drinks since 1878 when Henry Pike arrived in Australia from Dorset, England. Wilfred’s Block is a Cab Shiraz combo of real class. “… a fresh and vibrant expression of a classic Aussie red blend…redcurrant, cherry, blueberry and cassis, with a bon-bon sweetness and jewel-like quality… a keen line of acidity brings the lovely, glossy fruit flavours to the fore. A fine balance of toasty oak and ripe tannin also gives a firm spine to the wine.” (David Walker Bell). And he's not alone in praising it either. For Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, it is “Brightly fruited and fragrant” and “Delightfully styled and expressed, making it friendly and very drinkable.” We’re delighted to share the excellent Wilfred’s Block with you.
