A consistently great McLaren Vale Shiraz. Generously rich with amazing fruit weight and balanced, chewy tanins. Brimming with ripe red fruits and an underlying layer of subtle oak, as well as a hint of pepper. This wine represents great value, and has a long life ahead of it... If you can resist!

"Blackberry and blueberry with graphite aromas follow through to a full body, round and velvety tannins and a polished finish. Compact and fine-grained. Drink now. Screw cap."
Wine Enthusiast

Not one of d'Arenberg's most characterful wines, this is nevertheless true to variety, region and winery style. Ripe brambly fruit mingles with peppery spice, all buoyed by crunchy acidy and held in place with a firm grip of leathery tannins.
