Longhop Shiraz 2008 $15.90

This wine is one of the best value reds we have come across for some time. Made by the highly regarded winemaker Domenic Torzi, grapes for this wine are sourced from the Mount Lofty ranges on the outskirts of Adelaide. This great value red has received widespread critical acclaim and we expect the limited stocks to sell out quickly.

"94 Points. The bouquet is bursting with spice, hay, licorice and dark chocolate over the core of black fruits, taking on a more savoury character on the palate, black fruits again to the fore. Exceptional value. Screwcap. 14.5% alc. Drink 2016. Date Tasted Sep 09" - James Halliday, winecompanion.com.au.  

“Massive wine. Pitch-black colour. Rich with syrupy flavours of coal, blackberry, tar and minerals and full-on from the first attack of flavour to the last of the long, warm finish. An epic wine. It has a good hit of tannin too, and wave after wave of dark, concentrated fruitiness. Australia's most powerful wine under $20. Drink 2009-2012. 93 Points" - Campbell Mattinson & Gary Walsh, The Big Red Wine Book 2009/10.

"Domenic Torzi and Tim Freeland seem intent on becoming the Simon and Garfunkle of shiraz and grenache, not to mention perfect olive oils, and with wines from the high Barossa and Adelaide Plains continually reinforcing their harmonious translation of old vines and new, with great respect of terroir and hands-on natural, home kitchen winemaking. This is vibrant, fresh, exciting wine, with sinuous and lissome structure rather than jam and syrup, so it makes you thirstier and happier and hungrier as you work down the shoulder and into the label. Suddenly it’s all gone and you haven’t even lit the stove. $15? Jokin’! Rated: 92++" - Philip White, The Independent Weekly. September 11, 2009.  

"Into its fourth vintage, fruit sourced from Gawler River vineyards grown in rich alluvial river loam, Angle Vale region provides the old vine component rooted in the famous red clay over broken limestone while Bibaringa at an altitude of 280 metres has vineyards clinging to thin windswept soils perched on quartz outcrops. 10% whole bunch open ferment, hand plunged, basket pressed, 18 months in French barriques and American hogsheads, bottled unfiltered, what a beauty!" - Winery notes from Longhops.
