94 Points! Duval's regional red, which melds shiraz, grenache and mourvèdre together seamlessly, is a stunning rendition in the 2012 vintage. The Barossan origin is strong in all aspects of the wine, which shows deep blackberries and other red fruits on the nose in addition to some gently earthy and tarry meat accents, hints of nutty oak and a sense of vibrant ripeness. The palate delivers redder than expected fruit flavors. Grenache speaks strong here. Tannins are soft, supple and layered, and the wine occupies every corner of the mouth. Starts bright, builds full, finishes long, fades slow. Drink now. - JamesSuckling.com

92 Points! The 1999 Springflat Shiraz has dense, opaque purple color, a real intense, minty, creme de cassis nose, with some spicy new oak. The wine is certainly not shy at 15.3% alcohol, but the power is well-harnessed, and the wine is primarily a big, full-bodied, thick, juicy fruit bomb with plenty of texture, purity, and length. It should drink well for 7-8 years, perhaps longer. - Robert Parker, robertparker.com June 2001

A wine of utmost intensity, rewarding careful cellaring. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec. Alan’s Cabernet Pressings is made in exactly the same way as Alan’s Cabernet, but it is the very last drops of wine to be squeezed from the skins in the basket press. This process often takes all night. Our press gently squeezes the skins under a lower pressure. The wine dribbles and drips into a bucket which is then poured into a heavy toasted French oak barrel made of oak from the Troncais forest. The resulting wine is liquid gold, and is either bottled on its own, or is the driving force behind Duck Muck. Learn More
