August 11, 2012 - Made by an Aussie-Spanish wine making team, the grapes for this wine come from vineyards overlooking the Gulf of St Vincent. Typically called Mataró in Australia, this is not a typical Mourvèdre. Aged for 18 months in French oak this wine is savoury, herbacious and well structured. It has a full bodied palate and lovely smooth finish. Delicious!
