Glug ‘Alpha’ Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022

Imagine you have travelled to Georgia, some say the birth place of modern wine, and being a serious student are now facing a line-up of their most popular red varieties, Saperavi, Aladasturi, Aleksandrouli, Chkhaveri, Shavkapito, Takveri and Ojaleshi. Since they now use all the skills of modern winemaking you consider the wines excellent.

Perhaps you believe a market will exist for the wines in the U.K. and order one as a trial. I wonder if it was like that back in the 1860s when the first South Australian warm climate Shiraz was sent to the UK in barrels. Here we are 160 years later and the U.K. interest in Australian warm climate Shiraz, including our local favourite Barossa Valley Shiraz, is close to zero. Why is that?

A chilly night in the UK cries out for the flavour of the Barossa not a weak claret from Bordeaux. Yes, it is one of the mysteries of wine and its taste.

Another is that I prefer wines like this Shiraz even on a warm day in Australia as I know the Barossa delivers flavour which is what I want in a wine whatever the weather.

Note that wines labelled as Glug ‘Alpha’ etc are purchases we make from boutiques and are ‘one offs’. For the Glug staples revert to Goat Square and Karrawirra.

Cellar Range Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021

We cannot reveal the source since the reason wines like this are offered is because the grower-maker wants anonymity. They want no conflict with their brand which as in all cases they offer the same wine at far higher prices.

Karrawirra Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021

The great vintages are associated with a normal, steady ripening, plus an extended period for picking without being rushed to harvest. The wine maker when asked to comment replies that the wines made themselves. Such was the 2021 vintage, the 14th for Karrawirra.

Restless Farm 'The Elephant' Langhorne Creek Shiraz 2021

Great vintages happen when everything goes just right such as a long even ripening without stress on the vine and thus the bunches of grapes. The excitement grows that 2021 will be one of the classics and I have my finger crossed that it may equal the 1996.
