Ad Lib
Ad Lib produces wines from Western Australia that have drawn assessment from Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator. The winery's portfolio centers on three flagships: Middle of Everywhere Shiraz, a Shiraz that averages 90 points from prestige critics; Sauvignon Blanc, rated at 89 points; and Avant Gardening Cabernet-Malbec, a Bordeaux-inflected blend also at 89 points. The Shiraz showcases the dark fruit and spice character typical of Australian Syrah, while the Sauvignon Blanc offers the varietal's characteristic aromatic profile and acidity. The Cabernet-Malbec pairing draws on the structural elegance of Cabernet with Malbec's textural depth. Together, these wines suggest a winery engaged with both classical varietals and considered blending.
