“22 of the 59 wines on the shortlist were shiraz, eight selected, the remainder equally split between pinot noir/meunier, cabernet sauvignon/blends and grenache, and each provided four of the selections. This category was by far the strongest, the selection process the most difficult.”
The following wines were chosen from a total of 404 submitted.
