With a ruby red hue in the glass, this medium-bodied red is driven by lifted fruit notes and Mataro’s floral tones. The nose offers up spiced cherry, rose petal, vanilla, white pepper, and black tea. The palate is bright and moreish; soft, generous forest fruits - boysenberry, wild strawberry - across a generous, plush mid palate with fine tannins. This is a beautiful, textural red with great length and balanced acid.

The grapes for this classic blend are sourced from several family vineyards throughout McLaren Vale. Mataro is grown near Willunga, in the south, on slate soil whereas the grenache and shiraz are grown on the northern end of the Coriole estate on terra rossa soils.
