As the Australian wine industry matures, some areas have developed a distinctive style and flavour profile that reflects the terroir better than from other areas. However, that is neither a guaranteed position nor a static one, as witnessed by the change in local weather patterns. The future may see the evolution of different blends and the introduction of new varietals to reinforce the “new classic”.

Very deep crimson colour with deep crimson hue over a hint of mauve. Top note of blackcurrant followed by cedar and a hint of mulberry, truffle and spice. The palate has good weight and mouthfeel. Flavours of truffle, mulberry and blackcurrant emerge. Fine tannins, in balance. Aftertaste of mulberry, biscuit and spice.
