Today's Featured Wine #3: 2006 Fetish Playmates Shiraz

Fetish Winery 2006 Playmates Shiraz

Great Wine Profile

We don't mess around with swill at CellarThief...nope, only great wines at stellar prices. Here is another great find from the cellar...

2006 Fetish Winery Playmates Shiraz

We've got a fetish (don't tell anybody - it'll be our little secret) - it's those dang wines from Fetish Winery - they are bold and delicious without being out of balance. This wine is like having blackberry jam with only the natural sugars giving it the oomph. It's got a long life ahead but is already ready for prime time.

Fetish Winery: 2006 Playmates Shiraz

Wine Spectator - 91 points
 "Smooth, ripe and decadent. Not a big wine, but distinctive and focused on its smoky blackberry, cherry and charred meat flavors. It all lasts nicely against fine tannins. Shiraz, Mataro and Grenache. Drink now through 2016."

Fetish Winery: Owner

Rolf Binder

Fetish Winery: Region

Barossa Valley, Australia (Australia: Wine)

Fetish Winery: Background

Celebrity winemaker...Check. Incredible fruit from the Barossa Valley...Check. Stunning wine packaging that'll make you proud to pop it out for any event big or small...Check. Fetish was founded by Celeb wine stud Rolf Binder with the aim of crafting dynamite wines that are a product of spending a lot of time in the vineyard. Each wine Binder makes is down right delicious with tons of character without sacrificing balance.

One to stock up on - your palate will be thankful you did!!

Fetish Winery: Wines Made

Fetish makes a small collection of delicious vino including a great Shiraz/Grenache Blend and an impossible-not-to-like Moscato

Fetish Winery: Food Pairing

With great balance, this wine can hold up to a lot of different foods so long as you don't have a craving for Twinkies:

  • Cheese: Sheep Milk Cheeses (Here Sheepy, Sheepy, Sheepy), British Farmhouse Cheddar
  • Meat: BBQ Ribs, Smoked Turkey, Venison
  • Pasta: Salmon or Seared Tuna (Put away the can opener - talking about the real deal here)
  • Other Suggestions: Paella and anything that goes Quack Quack

Fetish Winery: Wine Style.

This wine is "Rich & Jammy!"

Mouth-coating wines that you can just as easily cut with a fork as you can sip through a straw, these wines aim to please and will wow any crowd.

The BBQ is rollin', the ribs are a-blazin' and the good times are happenin'. These wines can be cut with a fork and, though aren't usually sweet, fill your mouth with ripe raspberries like it's the heat of the summer. These will please all types of folks - even the wine uber-geek in all of us

 Wine Washington. Washington Wine. Washington Syrah. Great wine from Washington.

Wine Into Water!

Making A Difference

Every week, 42,000 people die because they lack access to clean water. 90% of those people are kids under 5 years old. We are proud to offer great wines at stellar prices.  But, we also are excited to be able to make a difference through our efforts. Therefore, we have partnered with some wonderful people who are dedicating their lives to providing access to clean water for people worldwide.  For every bottle of wine you purchase, we donate water - it's as simple as that.  Further, we work closely with our wineries and suppliers to be able to donate additional water if we sell out of the wines we feature.  We call this additional water "the bounty".  So, please tell your friends about CellarThief so we can keep offering great wines at stellar prices and make a big impact in the process.  Thank you and Cheers!

The Bounty

Help us sell out and we'll make an even bigger difference together!

50 extra days of clean drinking water

We're a bunch of sell outs and we are proud of it...but, we're even more proud that selling out means make an even bigger difference. Almost 1 Billion people on the planet don't have clean drinking water - that's 1 in 8 people on the planet. Not having clean drinking water leads to terrible illness and death - in fact 42,000 people die every week from a lack of clean, safe water with 90% of those deaths being children 5 years old or younger. If you help us sell this wine out, the Bounty is awarded! We'll tag on another 50 days of clean water for every bottle of wine sold! That totals 5 months of clean water per bottle of wine - that can make a difference! Thanks for buying through CellarThief and let's go thieves - let's drink well and make a difference in the process!

Thanks - You're Darn Cool!
