Rafferty's Rules
Rafferty's Rules operates in South Eastern Australia, a region celebrated for its diverse terroirs and approachable, fruit-forward wines. The winery's portfolio centers on two flagship expressions: Angel's Share Shiraz, a single-varietal wine that captures the richness characteristic of Australian Shiraz, and Fat Chance Cabernet-Merlot, a Bordeaux-style blend that marries structure with depth. Both wines have been assessed by major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Wine Advocate. The Angel's Share Shiraz earned an average prestige rating of 86.8, while the Fat Chance Cabernet-Merlot scored 86.7 across critical evaluations. These ratings reflect wines that balance ripe fruit expression with the textural complexity that defines serious Australian red winemaking.
