THIS IS A WINE CLUB MEMBER-ONLY WINE. YOU MUST BE A MEMBER OF OUR WINE CLUB TO PURCHASE. The season started with budburst 14 days earlier than usual, and excepting a frost on the 28th October “burning off” 25% of the crop, the season was perfect with a good spread of rainfall and warm ripening conditions. The weather conditions provided excellent quality fruit with good colour and rich varietal flavours. WINEMAKER'S NOTES COLOUR: Deep brickish red with purple overtones. AROMA: Intense aromas of ripe blackcurrant and spicy fruits, complexed with subtle oak influence. PALATE: Full bodied with concentrated berry flavours, integrated fruit and oak tannins and a long persistence of flavour. ABV: 14.3% REGION: Rutherglen, Victoria, Australia SIZE: 750mL
