MINIMAL

INTERVENTION REDS

By MATTHEW HIRSCH

2015 CASTAGNA ADAM’S RIB

THE RED, Beechworth, Vic

This nebbiolo with a touch of shiraz

from the family’s biodynamic estate has

notes of cherry and rosehip, with an

earthy backbeat. $40, castagna.com.au

2018 FREDERICK STEVENSON

BV HONGELL GRENACHE,

Barossa Valley, SA

Steve Crawford reveals a brighter,

snappier side of grenache. Sappy, juicy

red fruits are the dominant theme,

while whole-bunch fermentation

lends rawness and a wild edge.

$32, frederickstevenson.com.au

2017 CULLEN DIANA

MADELINE, Wilyabrup, WA

The latest release of this Bordeaux is

vibrant, with a palate of violets, currants

and blackberries, and hints of cacao

and tobacco. $129, cullenwines.com.au
