Top red wines under $30
by James Halliday
10 Nov, 2018
Thirst-quenching rosés, bright pinot noirs, and shiraz and grenache wines ranging from medium-bodied to mouth-filling: regardless of taste, there's a great value red ahead for you.
The list that follows forms part of James Halliday's Top 100 Wines of 2018.
The change in the price barrier from $25 to $30 had little impact in this still highly competitive market. The 62 wines shortlisted could have provided three totally different selections, each offering great value. The three rosés, three pinots, five shirazs, three grenache blends, two cabernet blends and four cabernets here all shine.
The ahead 20 wines were chosen from 282 submitted.
