REGION NOTES: MCLAREN VALE SOUTH AUSTRALIA
All three of these grape varieties share a long history in McLaren Vale – Australia’s most successful region with this triple blend emulating the wines of Cotes du Rhone. The warm, maritime-influenced climate and red-brown loamy soils produce rich dark
fruit characters and supple tannins in their exemplary red wines.
WINEMAKING NOTES
A blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Shiraz and 10% Mourvedre (Mataro) from southern McLaren Vale, where the hills run down to the ocean. Fermented on skins in a combination of open and closed fermenters and matured in French oak
for 10 months. Enjoy now to 2019 -2022.
TASTING NOTE
Macerated red fruits and musk from Grenache, structure and longevity via Shiraz, Mouvèdre’s gamey notes and minerality.
