🍷 Appearance
Deep ruby-crimson in the glass with vibrant purple edges, showing good colour intensity and youthful brightness typical of Barossa red blends.
👃 Aroma (Nose)
Spicy and expressive with aromas of dark cherry, red berries and blackcurrant. Layers of pepper spice, liquorice and cacao emerge with aeration, adding depth and complexity.
👅 Palate
Juicy and generous with flavours of ripe plum, blackberry and red cherry. Mid-palate layers reveal spice, cocoa and savoury undertones, creating a rich yet vibrant fruit profile.
⚖️ Structure
Medium-to-full bodied with plush fruit weight supported by fine tannins and balanced acidity. Maturation in seasoned French oak adds subtle structure without overwhelming the fruit.
🔚 Finish
Long and satisfying with lingering dark berry fruit, spice and soft chocolate notes, finishing smooth and well-balanced.
🍇 Overall Style
A vibrant Barossa Valley Grenache-Shiraz blend—rich, spicy and fruit-forward. The wine combines Grenache’s bright red fruit and perfume with Shiraz’s depth and structure, delivering a balanced and highly drinkable Barossa red.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with roast turkey, pork tenderloin, grilled lamb, barbecue meats or hearty Mediterranean dishes.
