Description

This wine celebrates the partnership forged by two brothers over 150 years ago on their journey from Sussex to Australia that laid the foundation of our family’s history in the Clare Valley. Fruit sourced from two single vineyards in the Clare Valley that produce low-yielding and highly concentrated fruit.  Our Shiraz from our dry grown vineyard has been blended with the Mataro from a high western facing Polish Hill River Vineyard which adds an earthy complexity to the richness of the Shiraz that balances well together like a good partnership should to produce a wine of elegance.

A cooler vintage produced a beautiful blend that is elegant and silky with dark fruits and hint of florals as the Shiraz and Mataro combine for the perfect partnership.

Review – The Wine Front – Campbell Mattinson

From two dry-grown vineyards in the Clare Valley. All into French oak.

Spearmint and chocolate, blackberry and a swoosh of ripe, sweet plum. This is satiny, warm and rich but well-mannered throughout, no better shown than in the tannin profile, which is gorgeously well integrated and fine. Quite seriously delicious.
