“The wine is what it says it is – Mother’s Milk. A soft, slurpy, textured Barossa Shiraz. Drink up!”

Winner of Wine Spectator’s Critic’s Choice Award – an incredible award and amazingly the fourth time this wine’s won it and even more amazingly it’s under $30! Winemaker John said “To be named among the greatest wines in the world by Wine Spectator is an achievement we are incredibly proud of.”

And the rave reviews don’t stop there…

93/100 (Andrew Caillard MW, The Vintage Journal)
“Juicy and richly flavoured with lovely fresh blackberry, black cherry, boysenberry fruits, sinuous chalk tannins and a long thread of aniseed. Delicious early drinking wine”

93/100 (Nick Ryan, Weekend Australian)
“Give a wine a name like this and you’ll want to be sure you can live up to naturally high expectations. Thankfully, John Retsas is a man who always delivers. Built on everything the world loves about Barossa Shiraz – richness, generosity, deep wells of fruit flavour – this has always been a wine that punches way above its weight, and long may it continue to do so”

92/100 (James Halliday’s Wine Companion)
“Terrific value here…Mid-weighted with a light savoury lean, chocolatey tannins and a medium-length finish that shows some lovely cream oak and pure fruit.”

90/100 (Angus Hughson, Vinous)
““The fruit forward and charming 2022 Shiraz Mother’s Milk offers up a wild ride of dark cherry and coffee bean aromas with a dark, earthy tinge. It’s well-pitched, fresh and vibrant with a supple core of tannins that fits the overall package of red berry flavour well before a gentle finish”.

A Barossa Shiraz made for drinking and boy oh boy what delicious drinking it is! It’s a style the First Crew proudly claim that has a no-sledgehammer approach to it  – “Sourced from vineyards in the Barossa and Eden Valley, it is fruit-laden, savoury and dangerously easy to drink!”
