Beelgara 2008 Springview Shiraz (Clare Valley)
- $39
This upmarket offering from Beelgara displays lashings of toasty oak layered over briary, brambly fruit. It’s medium-full in weight and features a creamy texture on the midpalate, then a slightly tart finish that accentuates the wood tannins.

Beelgara 2008 Estate Range Chardonnay (South Eastern Australia)
- Best Buy
- $9
This South Eastern Australia Chard packs quite a punch for the price. The nose is fresh but subtle, with hints of hand soap and cut apples. There’s a luxurious quality to the palate that melds well with flavors of almond and pear and carries over to the silky, medium finish. Winds up on a note of tropical fruit. Drink now through 2011.

Beelgara 2007 Estate Range Shiraz (South Eastern Australia)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $9
Peppery and exotic, with a nose of elderflower and lavender that draws you in to the glass. There’s good intensity on the palate and an irresistible raspberry juiciness. The finish isn’t too long, but leaves a nice impression of coffee and mocha from toasty French oak. Great choice for short ribs. Drink now.

This creamy-textured Merlot offers notes of coffee and brown sugar, accented by a hint of prickly sourness. It’s soft and supple enough to be consumed over the next several months.

This medium-bodied bargain-priced sparkler is maybe just a touch on the heavy side, but it should satisfy most party crowds. Hints of toast accent pineapple and tropical fruit notes, finishing soft and short. Worth trying in Mimosas or Bellinis.
