- yielding dry
- farmed parcels of Grenache Mataro and Shiraz – a combination of gnarly old bush vines and trellised vines on limestone soils from selected Barossa Valley vineyards.

Bright lifted aromas of redcurrant rosehip and raspberry develop into concentrated baked plum pudding with spicy notes. The soft luscious palate is complemented by complex flavours of spiced berry compote raspberry and red liquorice. An elegant style with fine velvety tannins and balanced acidity.
