Clare Valley, South Australia.

Clare Valley, South Australia. This wine was selected from individual barrels before blending and exhibits the definitive Tempranillo characters of strawberry and cherry, in harmony with clove and cinnamon spice derived from 15 months aging in new and second-use French oak. The wine is spicy and savoury by Australian standards and is lower in alcohol than most red wines we make. It has been sealed under screwcap to ensure freshness and authenticity. The wine will develop to its full potential over the next 10 years...

Barossa Valley, South Australia. ‘Heady and good. Gutsy. Sweet licorice and raspberry – reminded me of the days of drinking "jelly beans” – but with leather and dried Asian spice notes too. Lovely smooth-skinned texture. Full-bodied. Perfect acid balance. Sweet, ripe and satisfying.’..

Barossa & Eden Valley, South Australia. ‘Plenty of bath powder perfume! Tim likes to keep things pretty clean I’d say, and he’s certainly got all his ducks in a row here. Then into a much less soft and fluffy palate – firm, dry and energetic, lemons and limes, with a particularly lemony acid cut. Like the purity and bony crunch on the very long finish. Nice!’...

Tuscany, Italy. Spicy notes of French oak rise above distinct aromas of cherry and berry. The palate has a backbone of Sangiovese, a roundness of Merlot and enhanced body from the oak. The fruit purity and varietal signatures are testament to the meticulous care given to the young vines...

Tuscany, Italy. This is a sensual wine with notes of cherry fruit, tobacco, leather and hints of licorice and spice. The elegant tannins balance nicely with the fruit, all underlined by a fabulous stratum of acidity, making this a complex wine with incontestable structure and power. A long and satisfying finish...
