Hints of lifted cherry and plum intertwine with delightful vanilla and cedar notes to deliver a balanced and complex medium bodied wine with a delightful lingering finish.

A generous and fruit driven blend of Tempranillo and Shiraz from the Barossa Valley. The varietal cherry and plum flavours from the Tempranillo are supported by blackberry, spice and ripe sweet tannins from the Shiraz.
