Vineyard: The grapes Shiraz and Mataro come from McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Padthaway, Wrattonbully.

Vinification: Eight months in French oak (10% new) and American oak hogsheads.

Tasting Notes: Deep red. Mediterranean notes of savoury ratatouille, sundried tomato, olive tapenade and Moroccan spices. Also aromatic blueberries, exotic red fruits, perfumed cranberry and fresh pomegranate complete the bouquet of the nose. A delightfully complex amalgam of savoury green olives, pepperoni with a hint of sweet/salty Dutch liquorice. Soft blue fruits to the fore with textured tannins providing grip. An expansive palate gives this wine generosity and presence.

Served at: 16°C.

Aging Potential: For the rest 10 years.
