Product Highlights

An exquisite six-year-aged Bordeaux-inspired Cabernet Merlot Malbec blend from the heartland of Wrattonbully, right next to Coonawarra, in South Australia.

The winery is an industry leader. One of the most consistently awarded show circuit wineries in Australia. Thousands of medals and awards across regional, national, and international wine shows. A 5-Red-Star Halliday rating for five consecutive years placing it in the top echelon of premium producers in Australia.

Halliday gave this Wrattonbully blend 94 points. Its maker’s top-tier Cabernet costs several times more.

Four Bordeaux varieties go into the bottle. They’re grown in a young region next door to Coonawarra. It shares its famous neighbour’s red terra rossa soils over limestone. 

It spent 18 months in French oak, yet it reads as balanced rather than heavy. The tannins are firm, so we’d give them something rich to lean on if you're pairing it with food.

Halliday puts its cellaring potential in decades. Pull one now and keep the rest.

Overall rating: 3.0 / 5 from 4 reviews.

I bought this to serve

"I bought this to serve at an art exhibition opening but sadly I will not be doing so. It is too young to serve as a sipping wine - bitter was the description my wife used. So I will lie it down ( any Bordeaux blend needs time) for many years and then try again, with food."
