The first of the 2021 reds are starting to pull through onto the market now, and with all the hype that the vintage received at the time, I am eager to put it through its paces. It is essentially a cool(er) vintage than the three preceding it, and typified by 1) a distinct lack of viticulture pressures, and 2) healthy yields. Again, a stark contrast to the drought spell prior to this. So, the 2021 Grand Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon is varietal and fresh, with layers of cassis, boysenberry, mulberry and licorice. It's not a complex wine, but not an expensive wine, either.

Concentrated notes of fig paste, currant jelly and wild blackberry have tobacco, herb and cedar details on the finish, with firming tannins. Drink now. 15,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / Barossa Select to Add

Dense, with sink-your-teeth-into-them tannins and a juicy subtext to the wild blackberry, blueberry and huckleberry flavors. Matcha, cedar and campfire details emerge on the finish. Drink now through 2029. 10,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / Barossa Select to Add

Full-bodied and a bit round in the mouth compared to most Australian Cabernets, the 2017 Grand Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon offers plenty of cassis fruit and a subtle hint of mint, both framed by cedar and vanilla. It's not a wine for cellaring, but a supple one for drinking over the next few years.

Juicy and vibrant, with jammy overtones to the wild berry and plum flavors, set on a supple and easy-drinking frame. Hints of mocha and powdery tannins emerge on the finish. Drink now through 2030. 8,572 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / Barossa Select to Add
