If you too enjoy sipping on these wines, you're definitely going to enjoy the Top 10 Wines 2018 in Australia listed below.
Winners of the recent wine shows in Australia
1. Red Knot by Shingleback McLaren Vale Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre 2016
Crafted for everyday drinking and over delivering vintage is the Red Knot GSM. It is a juicy midweight wine with soft, ripe primary raspberry and blueberry fruit, with a hint of sweet spice and elegant floral aromatics.
2. Oakridge Local Vineyard Series Lusatia Park Chardonnay 2015
Produced by Oakridge winemaker David Bicknell, there’s some attractive peeling to its white peach fruit to which edgy grapefruit acidity counters. The wine gets overlaid with notes of flint and nougat and nutty oak.
3. De Bortoli Black Noble NV
This botrytis Semillon has spent about ten years in a barrel. It has got an oozing opulence with a luscious and concentrated palate of prune, mocha, dried fig and baking spice.
4. Josef Chromy Pinot Noir 2015
Another great wine from Tasmania, this Pinot Noir reveals layer upon complex layer. Lifted by an elegant line of acidity, its sweet raspberry coulis fruit covered in silken tannins is joined by spicy aromas and herbs over a forest floor.
5. Kilikanoon Mort’s Reserve Riesling 2011
You're going to love this pure and vibrant 7-year-old wine that's dry and incorporates complex toasty, lime & mineral notes to the fore, with hints of florals, nut and white peach.
6. Thorn-Clarke William Randell Cabernet Sauvignon 2015
This Cab Sauv has got a vibrant, ripe and concentrated blackcurrant as well as blueberry fruit, carried by a lovely acidity. The wine displays notes of violet, fine oak spice and a little hint of menthol. The finish displays velvety tannins and an attractive savoury undercurrent.
7. House of Arras EJ Carr Late Disgorged 2003
Golden in colour, its refined palate reveals notes of honey, toasted nut and ginger cake. Aged flavours from its lees of 12 years get perfectly offset by its fresh lemony line of acid.
8. Bird in Hand Nest Egg Shiraz 2014
This Shiraz has got a real concentration and ripeness to its cherry fruit and black plum. It’s laced with notes of tapenade, peppery spice and leather and is strengthened by supple satiny tannins.
9. McGuigan Bin 9000 Semillon 2006
The wine has got lime, lemon and mineral notes that are joined by rich toasty savoury flavours, tinges of wax that add layering to its white fruit.
10. Patritti Saperavi 2015
Displaying an incredibly deep colour of the rare red pulped black varieties – it’s a full bodied and dense wine with ripe blackcurrant fruit, earthy notes, and some cedary oak supported by balanced acidity and structuring tannins.
