Morris flagship. Pioneered by Mick Morris in the 1950's, the Morris Durif is a true icon of Australian wine.
Reviews
"Deep, dark colour, with a black tint and some purple reflections. Sweetly jammy aroma, even porty, and this is reflected precisely on the palate. Chocolate and licorice, too. A huge, massive, monumental wine with tongue-crunching tannins and no pretence to elegance. A slightly burnt-timbery taste on the after-palate. A genuine smoky barbecue wine. It will probably live forever" - 91 Points, Huon Hooke
"This release is intensely flavoured and intensely tannic. Its a strong wine, muscular, leathery, wizened. Blackberries, iodine, bitumen, liquorice, dust, rust. It builds in the glass and cranks out dark, tannic flavour through the sheer grunt of the finish. Quintessential Rutherglen durif. A steal if you like the style." 93 Points, Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front
