A cracking value Barossa blend which would more than exceed expectations at your next gourmet BBQ with good friends. Grenache (50%), Shiraz (30%) and Mourvèdre (20%) form the blend. Maturation is in a mix of French and American barrels, both new and older. Crimson/purple in colour, this is a touch briary with notes of blackberries, dry herbs, root vegetables, mulberries, cranberries and warm earth. Good concentration through to a firm finish, the wine is of medium length. Enjoy over the next eight years.

Medium-bodied Barossa blend here, with those lovely lifted notes of cherry and raspberry, and some slightly peppery characters adding to its complexity. There's a little bit of oak influence from the French and American contributions, and yet this is a wine that's really designed for immediate or short-term drinking. It's balanced, it's poised, and it has a lovely structure that carries through to its long finish. Cellar 6 Years

Sweetly fruited and inviting, the bouquet offers dark plum, wild strawberry, olive, and warm-spice aromas with a floral overtone. The succulent palate offers a supple mouthfeel, silky texture and finely integrated tannins, making it harmonious and smooth with a lengthy, tasty finish. At its best: now to 2035.

A rich, plush GSM with velvety tannins and a long succulent conclusion.
A blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Shiraz and 20% Mourvedre matured in French and American oak. Midnight black dark red core with a dark red purple tinged hue. Spirited aromas of dark raspberry, liquorice and plum sail through the nostrils followed by some scorched earth and vanillin spice notes. Rich and plush, the mid weighted palate is decorated with juicy dark raspberry, dark plum and liquorice fruits. Scorched earth, vanilla and spice elements also chime in. Velvety tannins with a long succulent conclusion.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
