CIRILLO 1850 Ancestor Vine Grenache, Barossa Valley

The Barossa is home to some of the world’s oldest ungrafted Shiraz vines. The vines were planted in a pre-mechanized and pre-irrigation era where site selection was everything. Dry grown as bush vines with only the best soils, vine material and sites surviving the first years, and only the absolute pinnacle surviving the 100 years thereafter. The low-yielding ‘Centenarian’ vines, noted for their intensity of flavour, were planted more than a century ago around the time construction of the Château itself began. The select parcels are hand-picked and fermented in small open fermenters with hand plunging four times daily before careful basket pressing to extract tannin and colour. Suitable For Vegans And Vegetarians.

This shiraz has a defined backbone and loads of floral aromatics that a connoisseur will recognize as distinctly Barossa. With harmonious oak notes and lacy tannins, this is a wine with a confident mouthfeel. A partner for meaty and layered dishes.

Hoffman Family Vineyard in the sun-drenched North of the Barossa is the sub-region of Ebenezer. There lies a supreme and unique vineyard that has been cared for by the Hoffman Family for six generations.

The Travis Earth 908 Shiraz Mataro is a complex and elegant red wine from Barossa Valley, Australia. It is made from a blend of two classic grape varieties – Shiraz and Mataro.
