Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
A deep rich red colour.
Blackberry and raspberry jam aromas.
Flavours of foraged dark fruits, earthy vanilla with a hint of oak, a
touch of chocolate and a soft, silky, smooth finish.
Vineyard Notes
Our vines grow strong and robust in the heartland of South Australia’s vineyard
regions. Bright, warm summers and deep sandy loam over limestone soils ensures
they flourish to produce intensely flavoured, perfectly ripened grapes.
Winemaker Notes
As the sun slowly rises and a new day begins carefully selected parcels of Shiraz,
Grenache, Malbec and Petit Verdot are picked at perfect ripeness levels and
transported the short distance to the winery. Here they are gently crushed
before fermentation under temperature control to preserve the intense flavour
and colour.
Each base wine was assessed and then unified with the skill of a true artisan
to create a luscious berry driven palate that intriguing and truly indulgent.
A heady blend that sings with vibrancy and finishes with a dark, earthy swoon.
Food Pairing Notes
Have it with barbecued sticky pork ribs, pizza or your favourite pasta.
