Stanley Lambert 2004 The Family Tree Individual Vineyard Shiraz (Barossa Valley)
- $80
This is traditional Barossa Shiraz, aged in new American oak hogsheads, which have imparted a thick layer of vanilla and dill over the top of some lovely blackberry-tinged fruit. The texture is creamy, the tannins, supple, the finish infused with notes of coffee, spun sugar and spice. Drink now–2014, possibly longer. Imported by AUSA Pacific, LLC.

Stanley Lambert 2004 Thoroughbred Cabernet Sauvignon (Barossa Valley)
- Editors' Choice
- Online Exclusive
- $25
The 2004 vintage was a good one for Barossa Cabernet, and this wine delivers a panopoly of red berry aromas and flavors, all backed by darker notes of cassis and chocolate. Hints of vanilla and tomato leaf add complexity, while the creamy texture and supple tannins epitomize Barossa ripeness. Drink now–2012. Imported by AUSA Pacific LLC.

Stanley Lambert 2002 Thoroughbred Cabernet Sauvignon (Barossa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
Supple and velvety, with a ripe, creamy texture, this shows textbook Cab flavors: cassis, tobacco and some vanilla from new oak. It deftly avoids the common Barossa problem of excessive size and weight, just could use a touch more persistence on the finish. Imported by AUSA Pacific, LLC.

Stanley Lambert 2005 Silent Partner Individual Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Barossa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $50
After 18 months in American oak, the first impressions of this wine are of cedar and hickory. It’s medium-bodied, with plenty of dried spices and savory character, and just enough bright berry fruit to carry it off. Imported by AUSA Pacific LLC.

Stanley Lambert 2005 Sensitive Cousin Pinot Noir (South Eastern Australia)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
A soft, silky-textured Pinot Noir, this wine starts off with admirable complexity on the nose in the form of bacon, smoke, fresh greens and strawberries. Despite an overall lack of punch, it’s easy to drink and offers decent value in Pinot Noir. Imported by AUSA Pacific, LLC.

Brown sugar and cherry flavors also boast a notable tomato-herbal tinge. Creamy and supple on the palate, this wine’s texture is almost slightly syrupy, picking up a dry, peppery edge on the finish. Imported by AUSA Pacific, LLC.
