Hand-crafted using small parcels of old vine fruit, The Barking Dog Grenache Shiraz Mataro is an exceptional example of three of the Barossa Valleys finest varieties.

The soft balanced tannins and acid provide the core structure and combine to provide an intense long finish.

Massena The Moonlight Run is a blend of 47% Mataro, 38% Grenache, 12% Shiraz and 3% Cinsault. Opaque black dark red colour with a crimson purple hue. Aromas of ripe black raspberries and maraschino cherries waft from the glass followed by some liquorice.

A savoury spicy blend aged in seasoned oak. The nose shows plum, raspberry and tarry aromas and the medium bodied palate displays blackberry licorice and rich earthy flavours with fine, supple tannins.

The family Grenache block on Thiele Road in Bethany are one of the old vines planted in the 40's and still producing fantastic fruit today. Schwarz has dark inky purple colour with a great aromas of sour cherry, ripe dark fruits and a hint of fresh raspberry on the nose. Although not fruit driven, the red fruits characters are lifted with some earthy oak undertone on the palate. Hint of fresh spices with some subtle tannin towards a rather long finish. A bold wine with a difference.

Youthful, mid-weight palate, bright spiced red cherry and ripe raspberry fruits on attack to turn to a slately, dried spice and cherry pit close. Precise and focussed, fine sandy tannins and bright acids deliver drive and finish.

Sourced from the Materne Quarry Block vineyard (planted in 1927), and built with considerable age-worthiness in mind, The Pict is a 100% Barossa Valley Mataro. A variety often unfairly blended away, this wine is a prime example of the kind of quality achievable using Australian Mataro as the standalone hero. Explore the Museum

The now much sought after Righteous range of wines from Kym Teusner was first established in 2005 with the Grenache and this is the latest incarnation of this foreboding Barossa wine. Sourced from an 80 year old bush-vine vineyard, the Righteous Grenache was gently crushed and fermented in open fermenters with regular pump-overs. Maturation was completed in a mix of French and American oak and has resulted in a modern classic Grenache.
