Yangarra - the Estate Syrah is good but the Iron Heart Syrah (2012) is amazing and can be found in the 50-90 range.

Torbreck - The Factor and Run Rig (also Lairde (2005 or 2008) is amazing if you want to step things up)

Booker - The Fracture vintages are great

Standish - Shubert Theorem and The Standish are amazing syrahs

Cayuse - Bionic Frog pretty amazing wine from Washington

Dandelion Lionheart Shiraz is a good cheap house wine (20-25) but it’s Red Queen flagship syrah is good stuff - with a wide spread (35-100)

Glaetzer Amon Ra is solid as well particularly from 2003 to 2007, but also has a wide price spread.

Booker and Cayuse!! Quality stuff 👌🏼

By accessible do you mean price, availability or taste? Herman Story and K Vinters make a few new world styles in the 40-60 range. Pax has a few vineyard blend old world styles in the same range.

K Vintners - The Hidden 2010, 2012-2014 are pretty good (70-120). Royal City Shiraz from years 2008, 2010, 2013 are pretty good value as well if you can get them for under $120.

My favourite weekday wine is Pepperjack Shiraz (Australian)

Big fan of this one. Not super bold. More velvety. Subtle leathery taste, hints of vanilla! I picked up a half case for 120, or $20 a bottle! I may actually buy more. 8/10 for price and taste. Very elegant.

I'm looking for wine recommendations as a bourbon drinker. I'm a regular to barrel proof bourbons (120+ proof) and did a few red wines tonight but was expecting more. I'm hoping to find a red that is more full tasting or has a more pronounced finish.

I keep getting sour wines. I’ve never had this issue before but the last few bottles I got (store shelf, nothing too fancy) tasted like they were opened and left out. That gross stale sort of sour taste… but the cork was in tight and sealed. 🧐

Out of pure curiosity, does anyone in here currently work in the wine industry? I’m interested to get a sense of experience levels here. (Not that it matters at all! We all learn at our own pace.)
