More about this wine from South Australia

For much of the 1990s and early 2000s, the American wine market was flooded with cheap, overly jammy and oaky wines from Australia. Our story about this wine tragedy, Wine and a Wallaby, is a great read to get you caught up on what Aussie wine used to be like. But now fast forward into the future to sip on some of the new wave of Aussie wine that we're lucky to have Stateside.


Yard Dog Red Blend is taking some of the best Bordeaux varietals for a blend that can stand up to any wine, anywhere. This red is all about fruit power like black currant and blackberries. The juice has the perfect ease of drinkability, with just a subtle touch of oak maturation that adds to the flavors, compared to past Aussie wines that hit you over the head like an oak bomb. It's juicy and gulp-able with a dash of complexity.

How to drink it

Pro Tip:

With what seems like thousands of new shows to watch, you turn on your latest fave and see how many episodes it takes before the bottle runs out.
