2023 Riposte The Dagger Pinot Noir
How Tim Knappstein manages to make such astonishing wines at bargain prices is one of South Australia's greatest mysteries - but who are we to question when we all get to reap the benefit.
His 'The Dagger' Pinot Noir is bright, bouncy, and full of life. Great everyday-drinking Pinot and made with such finesse. Fresh cherries and berries wrapped in spice, with a juiciness that goes for days.
If you ask us, it's an absolute steal and one of the country's best value Pinots. A real no brainer here - great buying.
2023 Cirillo Vincent Grenache
The Cirillo Vincent Grenache is, year after year, one of the country's best-value Grenache. It's also a homage to Marco's father, who passed down all of his winemaking knowledge (spanning 8 generations!) down to him.
Vincent is a charismatic character, just like his maker. It bucks the trend of big, sweet, oaky Barossa Grenache and sits firmly in the bright, cheery and gluggable camp.
A portion of whole bunches give it a lifted perfume and silky texture, while the use of older French oak and stainless steel ensure this is a lot brighter and bouncier than many of its Barossa counterparts.
Exceedingly easy drinking and tremendous value.
2022 Unico Zelo Jungle Jungle Dolcetto
The Jungle Jungle (formerly Cherry Fields) has become one of the most popular wines in the Unico Zelo range over the last couple of vintages, and it's in top form again.
It comes from the Polish Hill River sub-region of the Clare Valley, a place Brendan and Laura Carter love sourcing fruit from. When you think Dolcetto you think sweet, fruity reds, but this is anything but.
There's also now some supporting Touriga Nacional from Langhorne Creek, and a touch of Adelaide Hills Nero d'Avola.
Wildly aromatic, vibrantly juicy and surprisingly structural, this is a lot of wine built into not a lot of body. The Carters recommend this wine for "eating with your hands", and 20 minutes in the fridge would do it no harm at all. It's different, yes, but most of all it's just one of those reds that is near impossible to put down.
2022 Bleasdale Vineyards Second Innings Malbec
Bleasdale are an iconic Australian winery. They have an incredible history dating back to the 1850's, when a man named Frank Potts planted the first vines in the Langhorne Creek region. Descendants of Frank's are remarkably still responsible for putting Bleasdale's wines together. A legacy and history as rich as the reds they produce.
Bleasdale are renowned for their Malbecs, and they comfortably lay claim to being one of the country's finest exponents of the variety. To get familiar with their style, the 'Second Innings' Malbec is the perfect place to start.
It's made in a more fruit-forward, early drinking style than the full-bodied Argentinian examples, and is the perfect introduction to the Malbec variety.
2021 Mike Press Cabernet Sauvignon
It's one of the great wonders of Australian wine how Mike Press manages to pump out wines of this quality for these sorts of prices.
His Cabernet is a single vineyard wine, picked from mature vines in the Adelaide Hills. It's made in a softer, mid-weight style ready and approachable from the day of release.
More outstanding mid-week drinking from the value King of AUS!
"This is super special."
- James Halliday (Halliday Wine Companion)
2022 Moppity Lock & Key Shiraz
Lock and Key is the entry label of Moppity Vineyards in NSW high country.
Shiraz is what Moppity do best, and at around $20 this little beauty is the perfect way to get to know their crowd-pleasing style. The wines of Moppity toe the line between cool-climate spice and warm climate richness - as owner Jason Brown says, "It's the best of both worlds."
It's firm and ripe yet elegant and balanced - if there's a more complete cool climate Australian Shiraz at the same price then we'd love to see it.
A no-brainer and great value for any night of the week.

Ordering
We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.
Some things to keep in mind:
- Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
- The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
- We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
- We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
- It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.
- It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.
We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.
At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!
No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.
We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.
To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you.
If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.
If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
