RockBare 2005 Shiraz (McLaren Vale)
- $19
Fairly priced, this offers a full-bodied mouthful of ripe fruit and soft tannins. Blackberry and vanilla notes are followed by hints of caramel and cinnamon in the mouth. A drink-now wine that’s easy to like.

RockBare 2004 Shiraz (McLaren Vale)
- $17
A fine example of the style that has come to typify Australian Shiraz, this is a round, lush wine, bursting with ripe berry and plum fruit and lashings of vanilla. There’s not a huge amount of complexity or structure, just mouthfilling fruit and oak. Drink now.

RockBare 2003 Chardonnay (McLaren Vale)
- $13
A light- to medium-weight wine, just the size and profile for a pre-dinner apéritif. Soft in the mouth; we found flavors and aromas of pear and pineapple. On the nose, there’s a nutty-toasty accent.

RockBare 2008 Mojo Sauvignon Blanc (Adelaide Hills)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
A solid, well-made Sauvignon Blanc from RockBare that combines aromas of melon rind and underripe nectarine with flavors of stone fruit and citrus, this is a nice wine, albeit not one that solves the mystery of what Austin Powers was missing in The Spy Who Shagged Me.

RockBare 2002 Chardonnay (McLaren Vale)
- $12
Lime, wildflower and peach flavors are wrapped in decent acids; the finish is dry and clean. It fills the mouth with fruity flavors that carry through the spicy finish.

RockBare 2002 Shiraz (McLaren Vale)
- $15
Rich, thick and juicy, bursting with plum, blackberry, cassis, chocolate and sweetened espresso flavors. A bit soft in the mouth due to low acidity, so that the texture is syrupy. But acidity is high enough.

RockBare 2001 Chardonnay (McLaren Vale)
- Online Exclusive
- $12
This powerful, intense wine starts with scents of lemon curd enriched by butter and hints of peach and vanilla. Flavors are similar, but incorporate a saltwater note and an extremely tangy finish, which impart a coarseness that the wine’s intensity can’t overcome.
