Alkina

Barossa Valley Shiraz and Grenache blends rated 95+ by prestige critics.

Alkina produces wines from the Barossa Valley, South Australia's renowned region for bold, fruit-forward reds. The winery focuses on Shiraz and Grenache-based expressions, drawing on the valley's warm climate and old-vine parcels. Old Quarter, a Mourvèdre–Shiraz–Grenache blend, represents the house style: structured and complex. Polygon 1 Shiraz and Spice Garden, both pure Shiraz, showcase the variety's dark fruit and spice character that defines the region. Wine Advocate and Decanter have rated these wines at the highest levels, reflecting their depth and balance. The Barossa Valley's continental conditions—hot days, cool nights—suit these Mediterranean varieties, allowing Alkina to craft wines with ripe tannins and layered aromatics.
