Incredibly full bodied and excellent wine from Coonawarra, the home of cabernet sauvignon in Australia. 2015 was a great year but beware, it really is 15.5% alcohol!

New wine to us. We are Shiraz & Cab Sav fans preferring these grapes to merlots. We found the wine lived up to its description and provides a good accompaniment to food you are enjoying, or on its own. Happy to have it in my wine rack. Offers good value at the price I paid for a dozen bottles.

A great wine at the price, drinking very well now. Big and soft and full of fruit.

Made by Primo Estate so it is a pretty safe bet before you even open the bottle. The only downside is its price which I feel is a bit on the high side. Still a great drink though.

Full bodied, full of flavour and highly enjoyable. Exactly, what a red wine should be.

Since 1989 the Australian Wine Centre has offered superb Australian wines from all over including the Clare Valley, Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Western Victoria, Tasmania and WA. Only rarely would you see these wines in the boring and unchanging supermarket selections. The range of grape varieties and blends result in great tasting experiences which will reward your patience and self discipline if you can manage to cellar them for a decade or so. How empty my life would have been without Tim Adams and Joe Grilli's Primo Estate reds and whites!

From the moment you open the bottle it gives of a lovely perfumed aroma and once tasted you can tell it has a full bodied flavour with much character. Definitely no washed out shrinking violet. Well worth a try. This review would equally apply to the Primo Il Briccone 2018 with the added advantage that the Il Briccone is somewhat cheaper. This is my view of these current 2018 Primo wines. Why don't you try them both and see what you think. They certainly won't disappoint.

Decanted for two hours & produced smooth tasting wine with overtones of red berries/cherries. Shared with neighbours who voted it the best wine of the night.(Social distancing observed!)

We discovered this wine at an Italian restaurant in St Kilda a few years ago, we could not find this wine or this blend on return to the UK and resolved to visit the winery on a future trip.
We did this 3 years ago now and love nearly all the Primo range, we had a very personal tasting but no Il Briccone left at our visit! The lovely Judy at Primo then informed us about their agent in the UK - the Australian Wine Centre, so we came home and immediately ordered some. We have not been out of stock since.
I’m no expert but I would describe this as a bold ‘in your face’ kind of red but with lots of lush fruit and light on the tannins. It’s our go to red wine if we’re undecided of an evening and pairs beautifully with all Italian food.
We also love the Primo Shale Stone as a stand alone Shiraz and the Virginia Vineyards is a great value red as well.

We have been customers at AWC for many many years. We love the interesting range of wines showcasing names that we recognise from our time in Australia and that we've found impossible to source elsewhere in the UK. Service is fast and efficient and prices very fair. We have never had a bad bottle. Keep it up!

As an "immigrant" to UK, I have been enjoying great Aussie wines since the Australian Wine Club was located in a basement off the Strand, when it was a great pleasure to drop in to sample and receive friendly advice on the latest offerings. While that is no longer possible the ethos of the company has remained, with wines from some of Australia's most respected wineries being available together with advice from people who know and understand them. I have nothing but praise for the range and quality of wines supplied (at reasonable prices) and the service provided.
Over the years I have enjoyed some exceptional wines- still have a few bottles of Rockford Basket Press Shiraz which have aged beautifully!
I like the new website, and look forward to inclusion of product reviews when they are available.

Excellent in all the aspects I want in an online wine supplier: helpful reviews of the wines so I have the confidence to try new ones, excellent customer service (with prompt response to queries and rapid delivery) and last, but not least, delightful wines.
