Wine Colour
Deep red with vibrant purple tinges.
Wine Bouquet
Enticing fruit aromas of ripe plum, cassis and a hint of liquorice allsorts along with subtle chocolate and spice from the oak maturation.
Wine Palate
A balanced medium bodied wine with a lively palate of juicy red berries, plum, cassis, chocolate and spice. The wine has a soft, supple feel with silky smooth tannins from oak maturation.
This is the quintessential Australian blend. The oh-so enjoyable combination of plum fruits and spicy pepper make it the perfect wine to take to a BBQ or your favourite pizza parlour.
Cellaring Notes
Although made for immediate enjoyment this wine may be matured for a further 2 - 3 years in a good cellar.

Aromas and flavors of eucalyptus, black licorice, flesh plums and currants. The wine is very smooth and approachable in the mouth. It is value-oriented red quaffers like this that fueled the Aussie wine invasion into the United States 15 years ago. A Wine Lines Best Buy.

Wine Advocate (USA), November 2011
With its red-berry fruit tinged with tar and black olive, this is a complex, savory red available for a song. ItÆs medium in weight and creamy in texture, turning crisp and silky on the finish. Drink now.
