A smooth, soft and spicy red wine with aromas of dark ripe fruit and subtle vanillin oak. The palate is full of rich shiraz flavours and is supported by firm tannins which provide good length and complexity.
Ideal as an accompaniment to traditional red meat dishes, tomato based pastas and matured cheeses.
From the Winery
The grapes were primarily sourced from parcels of Heathcote and McLaren Vale vineyards. The winemaking process for this wine was completed at our Hunter Valley winery in a combination of open top fermenters and stainless steel potter tanks. Maturation for the wine took place in a mixture of French and American oak barrels between 12 and 15 months after the grapes were picked.
Tasting Notes Deep red in colour with a bright purple rim. A smooth, soft and spicy red wine with aromas of dark ripe fruit and subtle vanillin oak. The palate is full of rich shiraz flavours and is supported by firm tannins which provide good length and complexity.
