3 Hills High 2002 Sangiovese-Shiraz Red (South Australia)
- $20
Sangiovese really dominates here, adding pretty notes of cherry, leather, cedar and orange liqueur to Shiraz’s plummy core. Round in the mouth, with approachable but textured tannins. A very nice wine. 1,000 cases produced. Imported by Aussie Imports.

3 Hills High 2005 Watervale Riesling (South Australia)
- $20
This is a dry, tasty wine, but a very wiry, puckery style of Riesling—meaning, if you don’t like your Rieslings tart, you may have some difficulty here. Its a very good wine (full of citrus and cilantro, with a minerally, stony, bony quality) but not a giving one. Will probably show its best with seafood or salads. Imported by Aussie Imports.

3 Hills High 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon (South Australia)
- $20
Right out of the gate, this Cab is very fragrant, like blackberries and cinnamon, and turns nutty, almost Porty, the longer it sits in the glass. The palate, on the other hand, takes a while to come around. Straightaway, the palate is a little dumb, but with time it opens nicely, turning out fine plum flavors framed in oak and nutshells. Wooly tannins come through…

3 Hills High 2004 Sauvignon Blanc (Adelaide Hills)
- $18
A Sauvignon with a lot of heart, if not a lot of complexity. Offers citrus and tropical fruit edged with minerals; a good, everyday wine. Imported by Aussie Imports.

3 Hills High 2001 Shiraz (South Australia)
- $20
Most of this wine’s fruit is from McLaren Vale, despite the label’s broader appellation. Firm black fruit and medium weight mark this wine, which also has accents of Sweet Tart. Flavors are pretty nice, though obscured by a papery-oaky veneer. Imported by Aussie Imports.
