Schild Estate GMS.gif
 
This smashing Southern Rhone inspired blend offers outstanding value for money, and with medium term cellaring potential, it's a sound investment!

Deep ruby red hues are easy on the eye. The nose is lively, raspberry compote and ripe cherry vying for your attention. There are spicy notes of white pepper and earthy undertones. The palate is weighted beautifully, lots of juicy red berry, black cherry and raspberry

Old vine Grenache fruit presents itself on the front palate whilst the Mourvedre and Shiraz provide structure, concentration and depth. Hints of white pepper and spice are evident with a soft tannin framework ensuring a supple, soft texture to finish.

This blend of 54% Grenache, 23% Mourvedre and 23% Shiraz is designed to showcase the versatility and strength of three of the area’s key red wine varieties and highlight their importance. Made without the use of oak, this wine derives its depth of flavour and complexity from the blending of three varieties, while early bottling ensures freshness. Seriously one of the bargains of the year, this won't last long - don't miss out.


Award and Accolades

2013 Vintage

94 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion
"The vivid crimson colour sends a message of the equally bright palate with its synergistic and unusually harmonious blend, the gamut of red fruits retaining brightness and shape (and no confection). Exceptional value - one of the bargains of the year."

92 Points - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front
"Like this wine. It has spice and fruit aplenty but it also feels composed; steady; complete. It tastes of earth, black cherry, raspberry and rusty iron. A wine of the earth, with attitude. Mid weight. Excellent value."
