The Ron Thorn Shiraz is made as a tribute to Cheryl Clarke's father, Ron. Ron was a quintessentially Australian bloke, hard-working, with a wry sense of humour and a strong belief of the difference between right and wrong. 

Ron Thorn Shiraz is made from the best fruit and produced only in exceptional years, the wine is given the benefit of 20 months of barrel maturation and 6 months in bottle prior to release.

Ron Thorn is deep red with purple tints. 

Rich and concentrated dark fruits, with charry oak and mocha notes dominate the nose. The palate shows dense plum and mulberry with dark chocolate and savoury oak tannins. The wine is intense, balanced and shows great length on the palate. Drink now and through to 2025.


BOB CAMPBELL MW
Thorn-Clarke's flagship red lives up to its lofty status with intense and concentrated Christmas cake-like characters including dried fruits, chocolate/mocha and spices together with liquorice and a generous oak influence. The wine handles its generous 15.5% alcohol perfectly. Surprisingly good now but definitely one for the cellar.
