It’s a pleasure to be talking up a tasty $25 Australian wine. Something right and good. Derek from Paisley Wines has a whole host of underpriced reds in his portfolio, and this Paisley Turntable GSM 2022 might be the best bargain of all. All Barossan fruit, in a ripe, plush, polished, squishy black and red fruit mode, all plushness and low acid. Black jelly beans, chocolate, smooth lines and no disguising the warmth. It’s bold, soft, and ripe with a glow of joyous and powerful red/black fruit and well-folded oak, occasionally looking too bold but unashamedly. A bargain.
