Grown from two vineyards throughout McLaren Vale to truly express this wonderful grape variety that is so well suited to our Aussie climate.
A vibrant, medium to full-bodied style with soft, plush tannins.
A brand new release from the stunning 2024 vintage in McLaren Vale. Whole berries were retained after destemming the bunches (no crushing took place), before a cool, open top fermentation. Fermented slowly for 25 days on skins and then basket pressed to seasoned French Hogsheads for 8 months of maturation. Vegan friendly.
Deep, inky colour with very pretty aromatics that leap out of the glass. Bouncy blackberry fruit like Ribena and chocolate cake. Lovely balanced acidity/tannin structure and a rich, plush texture.
Shiraz will always be the king of McLaren Vale. Sourced from two exceptional vineyards, our Shiraz showcases the richness and generosity this region is famous for.

One of Sicily’s great wine treasures, Nero d’Avola is prized for its dark berry flavours and medium-bodied style. Ours is grown at a single vineyard in McLaren Flat and hand-picked at peak ripeness, delivering plush fruit, silky depth, and beautifully rounded tannins.
