Background

Occasionally used as an alternative to Shiraz, this lesser known old world variety has become a popular varietal in Australia.

Known for its dense colour, vibrant flavours and firm tannin structure, makes it a good choice for true red wine drinkers.

Tasting Notes

The 2016 vintage has a rich perfumed nose with aromas of blackberries and gentle soft spices, giving the wine complexity and intrigue. The palate contains big full berry and wild cherry flavours, these combine with big and balanced tannins creating a long luscious lingering taste sensation in your mouth.

This fruit was sourced from high altitude vineyards in Rylstone in cool climate basalt soils. This wine will age well and grips the palate while young.

Peak Drinking / Cellaring Potential

This wine will cellar well for many years with careful attention.

Food Matches

Rich and strongly flavoured foods are the best accompaniments.

The Verandah Restaurant Matched Dish:

Duck scaloppini with sauteed porcini mushroom and oriental greens.
