The BEST Australian wine REVEALED (not Penfolds Grange 😲)

Master Sommelier Carlos Santos has been talking about Wendouree Winery in Clare Valley, South Australia on nearly every episode of Got Somme to date. So when we got the chance to surprise him with a flight of 4 different vintages and varietals from the brand he said "NO F***ING WAY"
The Wendouree vineyards were established in 1893, and its distinctive, high-quality wines are known to have an indefinite shelf life despite their little production. They have grown to be somewhat of an Australian cult favourite among savvy wine drinkers. The only way to get them when they go on sale is via the mailing list, which is still one of the most difficult to join in Australia.

Thank you all so much for the 👍🏼s up on the video

[@markrigoni9189]

Well done gents! Excellent tasting. Very envious.

[@GotSomme]

Thank you kindly! Was a very good day at “work”

Great vid lads, awesome 2023 kick off. We’ve been collecting wendouree as a mailing list member for about 6 years now.. my old man has been a member since late 80’s. We’ve only drank a 16 Shiraz Malbec so far.. price point at the winery is ridiculously cheap considering the iconic cult following. Had a 1990 cab Malbec a couple of years ago and was the best wine I’ve tasted.. a 2000 Shiraz last year and was a bit disappointed tbh.

Great video tasting. Thank you

[@GotSomme]

Thanks Doug! Was a delicious episode to record

loved your reaction to the first bottle, I had the same reaction to all four of them, didn't like any of them(different vintages I am sure, I had them a few years ago in hk, didn't know much about wine but was told these were good). Just thought they were very forgettable, but after this video I may try them again. Thanks

Let us know Rick if you do and if they've improved in your opinion!

[@dimbo1307]

He needs to try Rockfords!

Would definitely love to see you guys do Standish Wine Company

Best value wine in Australia, if you are lucky enough to be on the mailing list. If Penfolds had this fruit it would be $800 a bottle

Couldn’t agree more! One of Carlos favs
