Blue Pyrenees Midnight Cuvee Sparkling — $140.00
"I thought the whole exercise of placing my order to delivery was without fault. There was a large choice of wines from which to make a selection, of which I am well pleased. If I may say a nice "drop" with dinner. I have invited my daughter-in-law over for a meal to cast her taste buds over my De Bortoli Cabernet Merlot. I'm confident she will be well satisfied and most comforted. Yes, I am well pleased with my purchase and will be back."

Penfolds Bin 707 Cabernet Sauvignon — $169.99
Firm, full-bodied. Intense, replete with a rigid tannin structure, grip. Barrel fermentation characters gilded/framed by espresso & bitter chocolate masking any suggestion of the use of 100% new oak. Truly complex - a continuum of dark ripe fruits giving way to an impressive palate length and a 'residual' Cabernet flavour. Elements of rhubarb, blackcurrant, soy and the faintest suggestion of mint are reluctantly emitted - this wine will only reveal more with age / patience.

Witchmount Cabernet Sauvignon — $350.00
Winemaker's Comments: Dense rich garnet red in colour: the intense red berry fruit nose has blackcurrant overtones and well integrated and supportive new oak add complexity: the medium bodied palate has sweet berry fruit and chocolate flavours. Ripe tannins give this wine excellent length and the elegance of structure expected from the finest cabernet sauvignon.

Innocent Bystander Moscato 375ml — $113.16
Jack's Comments: This wine is the perfect partner to a lazy summers afternoon. It has raspberry, strawberry and musk flavours with also hints of floral spice at the top. It is packaged in a cute small 375ml bottle which makes it very appealing to enjoy just a few drinks complemented by its low alcohol content, not to say it takes away from the flavour. It is full of sweetish flavours finished off with a soft zesty taste. This is one of the biggest selling moscato's on the market. It is well worth...

Brown Brothers Moscato — $155.88

Brown Brothers Moscato Rosa — $155.88
Jack's Comments: Well if you are searching for your summer tipple this year, look no further! This is an absolute cracker! while the wine has a light delicate colour about it it sure does have a great amount of flavour. It has aromas of sweet perfume with hints of spice and strawberries. The palate bursts with zing and zang giving out ample amounts of fruitiness with well balanced acid and it also has a slight spritz which makes the mouth tickle. it is by no means to sweet and will push all your...

Barwang Sauvignon Blanc — $190.00
Winemaker's Comments: In keeping with the regional philosophy of Barwang, the fruit was handpicked from three blocks and treated differently to accentuate the individuality of each parcel. All of the fruit was separately and gently crushed then chilled to below 60C. The wine was then pressed to extract the free run juice with minimal skin contact. One parcel was bag pressed and allowed to sit on skins overnight before the juice was drained, to allow maximum flavour extraction. The juice was then...

Yalumba Y Series Shiraz Viognier — $109.00
This wine is medium to deep crimson purple in colour with a very attractive nose showing warmer aromatics of heady ripe berry fruits. The Viognier lends fragrant notes of apricot blossom and musk.

Nepenthe Adelaide Hills Sauvignon Blanc — $191.88
Jack's Comments: This wine has been blowing them away at the wine shows around the world. A bottle popped up on my desk last week and I know know why!

The palate boasts flavours of ripe summer berries and the natural grape sweetness is balanced by the frizzante mouth feel which provides a refreshing and vibrant finish.

Barwang Pinot Gris — $190.00
Winemaker's Comments: Individual parcels of Pinot Gris were hand picked and treated separately to accentuate vineyard individuality of this variety. Gently crushed with skins removed to minimize colour, the juice was chilled to below six degrees before transferring to stainless tanks for fermentation. Specially selected yeasts were used to heighten the fruit characters whilst providing palate weight and texture. The wine then spent two months on yeast lees to add further complexity before bottling...

Cleanskin Mussel Bay Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 4083 — $99.00
Jack's Comments: This is a good indication of the state of the economy both here and in New Zealand when a wine like this is released as a cleanskin. To say that their is an oversupply at the moment is a bit of a understatement and this great Sauvignon Blanc is drinking as well as any other Sauvignon Blanc in the $15 price bracket.

Blue Pyrenees Reserve Chardonnay — $167.88
Winemaker's Comments: The 2004 Blue Pyrenees Estate Reserve Chardonnay is an excellent example of the estate’s “assemblage” philosophy. This dictates the need to select ultra-premium parcels of fruit for the production of individual component wines that will be blended together to create a wine that is greater than any of the constituent parts. The component wines were 100% barrel-fermented, one batch allowed to go through natural fermentation the others fermented with selected yeast strains. One...

Cleanskin chardonnay piccollo 187ml — $79.00
Jack's Comments: Great quality drinking wine and very rare to find a cleanskin bottle in this size. Good for weddings and parties all you have to do is just put your own label on it.

Jack's Comments: Delicate melon flavours on the nose. Big rich and full of flavour almost to the degree that you say to yourself where did that come from, this is only a $4 wine yet it just drinks beautifully. Outstanding wine for the money, great buttery and melon flavours yet clean and rich.

Blue Pyrenees Sparkling Shiraz — $160.00
Jack's Comments: The awards speak for itself on this wine. Absolute peach of a wine. I am not really that keen on a sparkling red but this was really very impressive! It has beautiful rich flavours of dark berries and plum with a slight touch of sweetness to take the edge of it. It rolls along the palate to display some elegant hints of chocolate and well integrated oak from the shiraz that give a perfect lingering finish in the mouth. A perfect red sparkling.

Five Judges Pinot Chardonnay — $99.90
Jack's Comments: I enjoyed this wine with some friends recently and they all commented at how they thought it was a good bubbly. Easy to drink with a touch of sweetness and a reasonable amount of fruit and flavor.

Angoves Long Row Cabernet Sauvignon — $107.00
Winemaker's Comments: Deep red in colour, with some purple hues, this wine exudes red berry aromas with herbaceous Cabernet notes, and a gentletouch of oak.

Barnadown Run Heathcote Cabernet Sauvignon — $279.96
Jack's Comments: The new 2005 Cabernet is just a fantastic wine with very generous fruit but at the same time I found the wine to be well integrated with a great balance between fruit and tannins. The wine had plummy and berry fruit on the palate, Heathcote has had a succession of drought years and as a result the yields are low but the quality of the fruit is fantastic. This is without doubt one of my favourite areas for wine.

De Bortoli Windy Peak Chardonnay — $126.00
The wine is blended to maximise complexity while maintaining balance of fruit, oak, yeast and malolactic fermentation influences. The frequent resuspension of yeast in barrel adds mouth feel and overall balance to the wine.

McWilliam's Inheritance Brut Reserve — $70.00
Jack's Comments: I thought this wine was incredible value for money, good fruit with nice clean and crisp flavours. I was expecting a wine with a lot of residual sugar but not on this occasion, I hope you are pleasantly surprised as I was.

Giesen Sauvignon Blanc — $187.00
"The actual process of buying the wine and having it turn up on your doorstep up here in Cairns 3-4 days later after clicking away on the website is absolutely fantastic. Wine is also a very personal experience, we have bought the cheaper-end specials on offer as here in this heat it is not worth buying expensive wine to cellar and keep, and have not been disappointed ever. The more we buy the more we get to trust the tasting notes so maybe one day when we move down south and become Mexicans and...

Norton Estate Sauvignon Blanc — $189.99
Jack's Comments: We recieved a sample of this wine a week after it has been bottled earlier this year, and was a bit worried that it might be a bit young and some bottle shock. Wow.. It has blown me away! The nose on this wine would be up there with the best I have seen, simply outstanding! The palate rolls into a beautifully rounded fruit filled balanced wine. I believe this wine did not have much going for it, being a Sauvignon Blanc from the grampians, but it really is a sensational wine! It would...

Jacobs Creek Pinot Chardonnay Sparkling 187ml — $85.99
Jack's Comments: This is one of Australia's best selling sparkling wines and when you taste it you will know why. This is in a convenient 3pk 187ml bottle which is fantastic for weddings or when only one person drinks sparkling wine in the family.

De Bortoli Gulf Station Yarra Valley Pinot Noir — $175.00
Jack's Comments: An absolutely stunning Pinot that deserves to be tasted. It has all the characters that make Pinot so great to drink. Its soft and delicate yet it has great depth of flavour and fruit which is lacking in so many other Pinot Noir's. It is well balanced and gives out slight spice which allows great length at the end. You must taste this as it is simply outstanding!

Grant Burge GB32 Chardonnay — $119.00
Winemaker's Comments: The 2008 Chardonnay is medium straw colour with varietal melon, subtle floral and ripe peach aromas.

A satisfying chardonnay, which is an ideal accompaniment to roast chicken, spicy Thai green curries or baked fish dishes.

Priory Hill Merlot — $107.00
Jack's Comments: This wine has just arrived back and if you have been a regular for a few years and were lucky enough to have got some you will know how pleased i am to have it back. It is a stunning wine that is not your average merlot. It has large generous amounts of fruit and bursting with flavour, but is well rounded and balanced and not over the top still adopting to traditional Merlot style. I must say that I am not big on Merlot's in general but this is one out of left field and is sure to...

Cleanskin Bowman's Forest Great Alpine Pinot Grigio — $95.00
Jack's Comments: Fresh and zesty.. Thats what you get from this wine. The way Pinot Grigio is meant to tatse. It is a wonderful crisp, sharp and juicy wine that will indulge your palate and leave you wanting more.

This wine usually sells for $15 labeled so at this price it is a steal!

Tyrell's rufus Stone Heathcote Shiraz — $199.00
Winemaker's Comments: The wine appears medium bodied with soft, vibrant, purple hues. The nose screams of the wine’s terroir with the typical white pepper and spice aromas that are characteristic of this region. The palate shows great length of fruit with a great acid structure and minimal oak intervention. A very well balanced wine that should age very well in the medium term.

Crawford Farm Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc — $155.00
Jack's Comments: Another top job on another Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. This is a young, fresh and lively wine with plenty going for it. its fruit balance is outstanding and the crisp acidity is perfect. it has all the gooseberry and passion fruit but you get hints of lime also. Its a sharp refreshing wine that is doing everything you would expect from a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

Michael Unwin Acrobat Cabernet Sauvignon — $239.40
Winemaker's Comments: The Acrobat Cabernet Sauvignon vineyards comprise of three small blocks, each with its own contrasting terroir. I am pleased that these blocks represent the best to be found between the Grampians and Pyrenees mountain ranges.

Extended maceration and maturation creates rounded tannins, making this wine a great companion...

Tintara McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon — $225.00

The wine shows attractive light green colour with delicate lime and tropical aromas balanced by subtle French oak. The taste is rounded and soft with persistent fruit flavours and a fine crisp finish.

Yellowglen Pink Jewel (low alcohol) — $125.00
Winemaker's Comments: Jewel Pink is the new, fresh sparkling wine from Yellowglen. With 30% fewer calories and 40% less alcohol than Yellowglen Pink, Jewel Pink is lighter on the palate and the perfect accessory for a seriously bubbly but balanced lifestyle.

Clayfield Grampians Shiraz — $350.00
"I was quite surprised at the quick delivery of our order, considering that it came from interstate. The order was very well paced so there were no breakages. I found when speaking with the staff from Jack's on the 'phone each person was very pleasant and helpful.

I have no doubt that this wine over delivers for what it is and I am sure that if you want a quaffer this wine well and truly fits the bill.

Trentham Two Thirds Semillon Sauvignon Blanc — $140.00
Jack's Comments: This is a wonderful zippy wine with plenty of character. It has a lovely fruit driven palate with subtle tropical flavoursome fruits.

This is a lovely rich satisfying wine that is sure to impress.

Yalumba The Octavius Barossa Shiraz — $93.00
very old vineyards in the Barossa, The Octavius is matured in American oak 'octaves' of 90 litres capacity. It is the only red wine in the world that is matured in such small barrels. The secret of the wine not becoming overpowered by the oak lies in the wood which is seasoned at Yalumba's own on-site cooperage for eight years before the octaves are crafted.The grapes were hand picked and crushed to our 8 tonne open top stainless steel fermenters. The natural or 'wild' yeasts present on the grape...

Cleanskin Prickly Tom Mt. Glagow Chardonnay — $110.00
Jack's Comments: Once again we have found a superb cleankskin. This chardonnay is an absolute steal at this price and is worth more than double of what we are selling it for. It is a classic elegant chardonnay with excellent buttery flavours mixed with fine oak structure. I still cant get over the quality of this wine. If you want a bargain, this is your wine!

Cleanskin The Secret Garden Clare Valley Cabernet Sauvignon — $119.88
Jack's Comments: This wine is a no brainer. It is from a major player in the stella Clare valley region, below half the recommended retail price and throw in a bit of age and it is a super buy! It is a little rough and ready which I enjoy giving it a bit character. Hints of spice on the palate. It has a wonderful big red colour and shows an excellent structure of big red fruit mixed with some oak leading to a medium body giving a good length at the end for a satisfying finish. i am sure you will...

Blue Pyrenees Reserve Red — $197.95
Winemaker's Comments: The Estate Reserve Red wine is modelled on the traditional ‘assemblage’ philosophy – a wine blended from fastidiously selected grape parcels. The 2002 Reserve Red has been crafted from 55 separate wines, each contributing distinctive characters that result in a mellow, rich, complex and seamless blend. The majority of the component wines were fermented to dryness in 16 tonne static fermenters; 20% of the cabernet was barrel fermented in new Haut Brion oak, and 50% of the shiraz...

Blue Pyrenees Cabernet Sauvignon — $179.00
Winemaker's Comments: Blue Pyrenees Cabernet is full of intense blackcurrant and mulberry aromas, with spicy notes.

This wine is from one of Coonawarra's best wineries showing the class from outstanding cabernet growing conditions. A exciting complex wine!

Review: I have purchased 160 bottles of this wine for my wedding. I have taste tested a bottle am are very very impressed and extremely happy to give this gift to my guests as a lovely chilled summer wine.

Yellowglen Pink — $125.00
"I am very happy with the service I have used twice now. Once to order a case of wine for a friends wedding gift and one time to order wine for my fathers birthday. It is a fantastic service and very convenient living outside my home country to be able to organise a gift that will arive within a few days at no huge shipping cost and I can also include a lovely personalised message to the recipient. Personally I like to drink international wines as well as home grown, but I also think it is great...

Fortunate Land Marlborough Pinot Gris — $139.00
Jack's Comments: The fortunate land label is not one that you see a lot around and probably that is a good thing as well, the presentation on this wine is excellent and it really looks the goods. The question that you are asking now is does it deliver on the taste, Yes it does and especially now that the New Zealand Market is over supplied as well. This wine has good clean refreshing fruit on the palate and finishes with good length on the palate.

Cleanskin Bin 3402 Cabernet Merlot — $59.00
Jack's Comments: Great value wine with good soft berry flavours with a smooth and rounded finish. This is a wine that suits every occassion and will not offend anybody with its silky smooth characters. Perfect wine if you are looking for that glass with dinner and have no one to impress except yourself.

Cleanskin Pyrenees Reserve Shiraz 3977 — $99.90
Jack's Comments: This is one of those finds that only comes up every now and again, dark in colour which prepares you palate for a big tannic wine. Wrong, it has a nice richness about it and the complexity is not really appreciated until the second glass. A soft and balanced wine with a good depth of dark boysenberry/blackberry fruits. An excellent example of cool climate wine making from the standout Pyrenees Region.

YarraLoch Yarra Valley Cabernets — $129.00
Jack's Comments: I had the opportunity to read a few of the wine reviews before I tasted this wine, I sometimes do a little bit of research when a wine arrives so see what people think about it. This wine was everything that the wine writers have said. it is a wonderful wine with warm voluptuous berry flavours that fill your mouth and has a lovely long finish. To tell you the truth I had a little bit of difficulty putting the glass down and almost devoured the whole bottle with dinner. A lovely wine...

Sutherlands Creek Primitivo (Zinfandel) — $119.90
Jack's Comments: A varietal found throughout the southern extremes of Italy, especially in Apulia, the heel of Italy's boot. Primitivo is known for producing hardy and full wines that are heavy with flavor and alcohol and sometimes sugar from the raisiny character of the grapes. There has been many DNA tests that have confirmed Primitivo's relation to Zinfandel, as they are both clones of the Croatian Crljenak varietal, but they are not the same. When grown next to each other in the vineyard they...

Cleanskin Mosquito Hill Cabernet Sauvignon — $79.00
Jack's Comments: These days some of the cleanskins are a bit average and you really have to be careful with what is out in the market at the moment. We taste every wine that comes in and their are a lot wines that we reject because they of the quality of the price, the wines from Mosquito Hill are from a large winery in the area and are very good quality .

Taylors Promised Land Shiraz Cabernet — $145.00
Jack's Comments: When I first opened this wine the results were dull and their was nothing coming through. But wait there's more, by the second glass the wine opened up and this wonderful fruit, intense classic dark berry fruits come through and it was wonderful. A real stunner of a wine and absolutely fantastic for the price.

Omni Blue Sweet Sparkling — $95.88
Jack's Comments: This is without doubt the best value sparkling wine in Australia. Made by the best sparkling wine maker Ed Carr who also makes the Sir James range as well as Yarra Burn Sparkling wine. This is is a steal it is bottle fermented which is very rare especially at this price so grab yourself a bargain.

Leydens Vale Pyrenees Cabernet — $119.00
Winemaker's Comments: The wine is made from a selection of premuim parcels of Cabernet fruit sourced from the Blue Pyrenees Estates own vineyard. The wine has been matured in French and American oak barrels for 18 months to reach optimum maturity. Bright ruby in colour this wine has aromas of black cherry , menthol and allspice. Ripe blackberry flavours and a touch of sweet vanillan oak plus a long soft tannin finish complete this mouthfilling wine.

Grant Burge GB51 Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz — $119.00
Winemaker's Comments: The Cabernet Shiraz style wine is uniquely Australian and shows dark red colouring with hints of purple. Raspberries and licorice aromas bust from glass, complimented by subtle earthy tones and hints of vanilla. A soft yet complex palate with tannins well balanced by the rich mouthfilling flavours of shiraz and earthy cabernet characters. A delicious ready to drink wine; the perfect partner to a variety of rich dishes such as an Osso Bucco or Rare Roast Beef

Warburn Stephendale Dolcetto and Syrah — $59.88
Winemaker's Comments: A deep rich burgundy hue and powerfully youthfully appearance. Rich sweet plums and blueberries, and carries with it some peppery spice from the Syrah. Soft rich and fruit driven. A great character of this wine is the lusciousness from the fruit which is not just coming from the sugar but from the rich ripeness of the fruit.

Di Giorgio Family Cabernet Sauvignon — $119.00
Jack's Comments: This is a very classy wine. It has everything characteristically of a good Coonawarra cabernet. The nose is entertained with wonderful oak flavours and dark ripe fruits emerge. The palate is treated to a great experience of mixed berry fruits, olive and a touch of slight mint. The oak leads to a clean yet long lingering enjoyable finish. A super wine!

Mt Moriac Pinot Noir — $190.56
Winemaker's Comments: These wines are produced from selected grapes from Kurabana and Geelong vineyards. They express varietal characters unique to this Geelong region

Deakin Estate Sauvignon Blanc — $99.00
Winemaker's Comments: Very pale straw with a fresh lime green tinge. Nose: Herbaceous with fresh rocket and coriander leaf and with lime and kiwifruit aromas. Palate: Delicious, savoury and fruity with lemongrass, lime and kiwifruit. Light bodied and zingy.

Cleanskin Bin 2609 Shiraz — $59.00
Jack's Comments: Wow.. This is a very impressive wine. I was quite suprised with how good it was drinking. It has a nice ruby red colour with hints of spice on the nose. It rolls onto the palate showing good amounts of dark fruit flavours with a great balance of tannins at the end to a excellent medium bodied finish. For this price it is a muct have to pull out and enjoy whenever!

CRISP REFRESHING BUTTERY CHARDONNAY!! Using Barossa Fruit — $99.00
Jack's Comments: It really is suprising how good this wine is because of the price! This wine displays all the right aspects of a great Chardonnay. First smell gives of a dark oak aroma with hints of citrus fruits. It has a crisp palate with a great buttery flavour erupting in the mouth with hints of slight acid towards the sides of the mouth and a nice lingering finish showing elegant oak. It is a superb wine right now.

Deen De Bortoli Vat 4 Petit Verdot — $109.90
Palate :The palate exhibits rich mocha characters, dark berry fruits, sweet pepper and silky tannins. It is intensely fruit driven with integrated coconut and toasty oak flavours and beautiful mid palate weight.

Yalumba Y Series Sauvignon Blanc — $109.00
Jack's Comments: It is sometimes hit and miss with the Australian Sauvignon Blanc's. Let me same the crew at Yalumba have hit the nail on the head with this excellent wine. It has wonderful ripe fruit characters while still being quite relaxed on the palate. Small packets of sweet fruit also arrive laying the foundation for a pineapple and passionfruit sensation. It finishes off nice and crisp with an exceptional clean finish.

Cleanskin Bin 2299 Semillon Sauvignon Blanc — $59.00
Review: Exceptional wine for the price. Not an exceptional wine compared to others I have tasted but consistent and a great backyard BBQ or quaffer number.

Michael Unwin Acrobat Riesling — $210.00
Winemaker's Comments: From the Acrobat Riesling vineyard a small but intensive crop is grown each year. As i picked these grapes at their optimal ripeness, I knew i had captured the generous tropical flavours with the delicate character of lemon blossom that so typify this wonderful variety. This wine is ready to drink now and will also age beautifully for twenty years and more.

Glaetzer Wallace Shiraz Grenache — $132.00
Jack's Comments: From first look at this wine I had to taste it. It has a simply stunning label that just draws you in. The wine is a standout too. It is a blend of Shiraz grenache and compliment each other perfectly giving out beautiful structure of earthy flavors and sweet berry flavors with a wonderful finish to end a great wine. We have only been able to get our hands on a limited number so don't miss out on this cracking wine.

Wirra Wirra Scrubby Rise Red — $167.88
“Perhaps the ’07 vintage was especially favourable or the team at Wirra somehow ended up with more quality fruit than usual, but this is the best Scrubby Rise I’ve tasted and – in all honesty – consumed to the last drop. A blend of shiraz, cabernet sauvignon and petit verdot, this exemplifies the essential honesty and generosity of McLaren Vale red wine and at a bargain price to boot.”

Katnook Founders Block Shiraz — $209.00
Winemaker's Comments: Deep crimson with light purple tinge. Abundant raspberry, pepper and spicy anise fruit aromas highlight the nose. Hints of vanilla and light toasty oak add complexity to fruit with mellow barrel maturation characters.An attractive combination of raspberry, pepper and liquorice fruit, with subtle oak maturation flavours of vanilla. Soft and mouthfilling with warm, generous fruit flavours and fine tannins adding to a long, smooth palate.
