Grenache (52%), Shiraz (38%), Mataro (10%)
COLOUR
Deep red with a vibrant purple rim.
NOSE
Soft Black Forrest fruit and ripe red cheery aromas lift from the glass.
PALATE
Mimicking the aromatic profile, flavours of dark cheery give way to floral and blue berry notes of the cool climate Grenache. These bright flavours are balanced and held in check by an alluring white spice from the Shiraz. This balance is further refined as the length of the wine is carried seamlessly by a slate like acidity and accentuated powdery tannins of the Mataro.

This red’s juicy core of blackberry, huckleberry and blueberry is generous and plump, showing notes of masala chai, clove and laurel bay leaf, plus a touch of bittersweet chocolate, all on a velvety frame. Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro. Drink now through 2037.

killer wine at a killer price that is immediately approachable and ready to hit the glass. Grenache takes the lead role pumping out plenty of black cherry and spice with just a touch of confection, ably supported by aromatic violet, aniseed and Mataro herbals – earthy fennel and oregano – with cacao. Smooth and easy with generous fruit all the way through to the finish. With fruit like this, it’s clear that oak doesn’t need to be too obvious and it isn’t. Some astute winemaking on show. Drink to 2028.
Following a mild winter temperatures, the vines emerged from their dormancy earlier than usual. This coupled with enduring mild weather during the growing season resulted in slower ripening and elongated time on the vine. These idea conditions allowed the fruit to ripen evenly and slowly giving natural acid retention while developing varietal character and flavour ripeness at lower sugar levels. It also allowed individual parcels to be selected at the most opportune time as the seasonal rush to harvest was alleviated.
Each individual parcel was vinified separately, and remained so until the final wine was assembled. Maturation in a selection of
seasoned French oak hogsheads for twelve months provides a softness and elegance to the silky palate.
