I keep coming back to this wine as it offers all the characteristics of Aus's favourite red grape at a really keen price. It's slightly light in colour but not in body where the soft and juicy plummy fruit flavours are balanced by smooth, savoury tannins. A sweet velvety mouthfeel completes the deal.
The creation of this wine was a judicious blending exercise to marry aromatics and lift with a generous, velveteen palate. Grapes are sourced from vineyards across Southeast Australia. They are picked at night to avoid high daytime temperatures and crushed immediately after picking. Temperature-controlled fermentation avoids extraction of harsh tannins and maintains the juicy fruit flavours.
