A classic Australian wine style championed in the late 1800s. Today it is the great Australian red, to the point that leading international wine writers and commentators, Tyson Stelzer and Matthew Jukes, have labelled Shiraz Cabernet blends as “The blend that defines Australia: Mouth filling wine style; soft, fleshy but firm with an explosion of fruit and flavour by blending Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon”.

A medium bodied, full-flavoured classic is the promise behind the very deep red colour. Notes of berry fruits with a hint of cedar, and spice fill the glass. The palate reflects the nose with flavours of cedar, stewed fruit and cassis. Ripe red berry fruits and spice are balanced by well rounded tannins. The wine has a pleasant lingering finish with restrained oak. Great depth of flavour indicative of this exceptional vintage. 

The grapes are hand and machine harvested. Each parcel of grapes crushed and fermented in 8 tonne open fermenters. The fermentation is completed in tank before the wine is racked to barrel. The wine is aged in a selection of older (6yr) French and American oak for 16 months before blending and bottling. The final wine blend is 60% Shiraz 40% Cabernet Sauvignon.

This red wine is made from a blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon from fields in the Barossa Valley. 

A versatile, approachable and satisfying red that pairs with robust stews, grills and pasta with style.
