Toast, resin and coffee-ground characters flash through pure, rich plum and redcurrant. It's ripe, velvety smooth, complex by iodine notes and firm through the finish. Importantly, for all its might, it feels both fresh and well balanced.

A very deep purple, red in colour. This wine showcases Shiraz with its’ depth of Barossa Valley and the alluring, aromatic freshness of Eden Valley. Vibrant aromas of dark cherries, anise and red raspberry. A distinctive wine with richness and dark berry, fruit compote palate. Perfectly balanced, elegant and refined.
Enjoy with beef fillet, roast beetroot and horseradish or Korean fried cauliflower.
