David Joeky marries deep, black Durif and smooth spicy Shiraz to produce a darker, denser, profound red. As he says: “Magical things happen when Shiraz and Durif come together” . His Dark Corner bears that out to delicious perfection. The result? It's almost as dark as the corner in which it was made, a wine to stain your palate, and once tasted, you’ll be hooked. Ripe and mouthfilling, with blackberry, plum berry fruit and mocha flavours with a smooth, creamy texture

This family owned vineyard and orchard lies on the edge of Yackandandah Valley in North East Victoria. The shiraz grapes have been sourced from both Rutherglen and Allan's Flat, so combining the flavour of both growing regions. The fruit leaves a peppery aftertaste on the palate.

From one of Australia's most celebrated fortified producers, this is a great example of the style. Some burnt citrus and caramel flavours make it a lovely way to end the evening.

“Vivacious? Juicy? We expect durif to be bold, but it can also surprise. Here we see a case in point: a fragrant, supple, smooth durif with plenty left in reserve. There is power, but there is also elegance. Dark berries and plums, dried rosemary, violet, bitter chocolate, spice and a touch of amaro bitters introduce a wine that runs long, with tannins wrapped nicely around the whole.95pts, Great Value” (Jeni Port, The Halliday Wine Companion).

The Nugan family named this wine after their grandfather, founder and inspiration - Alfredo Nugan. When a young Alfredo emigrated from Spain in 1940, he had a clear vision of his familys new life in Australia. Today, his legacy sees the Nugan family established as one of Australias most successful agricultural enterprises.
