Spinifex is one of the most exciting Australian producers to have cropped up in the last decade. In short, we rate them in the top tier of Australian producers and we’re not the only ones - Australian wine critic James Halliday rates them as a 5 Star Outstanding Winery and they've previously been awarded the title of Winery of the Year in the Penguin Australian Wine Guide.

Sounds simple, and yet in an ocean of sweet, oaky South Australian reds, Spinifex have long been a beacon of hope.
