This Dried Grape Shiraz is sourced from our family’s premium vineyards in the Riverina and McLaren Vale in Australia. Once harvested, a select parcel of this Shiraz was dried to create flavour intensity and concentration. After fermentation, the wine remained on its skins for a further five days further improving its richness before maturation in American and French oak for 12 months resulting in a hand
crafted wine of quality. Dense garnet with crimson hue. Attractive aromas of cherry and plum with dark chocolate, earth and herbaceous notes. Warm, rich and complex palate layered with black cherry with savoury nuances and smooth velvety tannins.Wonderful match with a variety of foods; from pasta to slow cooked meat dishes and aged cheeses. But if you really want to appreciate this wine, do as the Romans do, and partner it to your favourite Italian dish such as Osso Buco or Veal Milanese . Pick Date: March 2013
