Intense red fruits of raspberry, mulberry and blueberry all combine with classic Rosehill violet notes with some subtle spice from maturation in wood.

"Out of the three traditional red grape varieties of the Barossa, Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro. Mataro and Shiraz have always been my favourites. Shiraz for its bold richness and Mataro for its savoury spice and earthiness. This single vineyard is nestled at the base of the Barossa Ranges in the Krondorf sub-region, it is planted in rich red loamy clay. It is sun struck during the day and is soothed by the cool air falling from the hills at night. The vineyard even though is young in Barossa terms, shows an intensity and complexity usually reserved for older vines. This wine to me is more than what’s in the bottle, it represents the on-going history of my region, the complexity of family and the chance of being able to create something I truly love."

Machine harvested and matured in older French wood. Very Hunter, expressing an earthy warmth and scents of dried cherry pith, anise and terracotta. Succulent. A richer expression from a very warm vintage, balanced by lithe tannins and savoury integrity
