• What is The Wine Front?

  The Wine Front is an independent review site for consumers. It's run by Gary Walsh and Campbell Mattinson. It's updated most days of the year (sad but true) with multiple reviews and comments on wines from Australia and overseas - as they're released. All wines are given a score out of 100 and a 'best drinking' window. All past reviews, articles and comments remain on the site and can be accessed by subscribers. Most of The Wine Front's content is available by Subscription Only. The Wine Front has operated as an independent Subscription Only service since 2002.

Rockford Basket Press Shiraz 2000

Smoky, funky complexity with those trademark young-Rockford flavours: coal, earth, black fruit, and a dark, brooding minerality. You need a subscription to The Wine Front to see this part of the post
