Tyson Stelzer - Halliday's Wine Companion

The best-selling sparkling red in Australia. Based on the cool '11 season, it's alive with pretty violet lift and lovely plum, rhubarb and black pepper fruit flavours, backed with dark chocolate oak. Classic Langhorne Creek shiraz with refined restraint, low alcohol, finely textured tannins and good persistence.

Bob Campbell MW - The Real Review

Deep red in colour with the unmistakeable aroma and flavour of good, dense, oak-aged Shiraz. A little sweetness neatly balances the wines tannins. Hearty, mouth-filling wine with plenty of appeal. The flavours are quite fresh (that is, not showing great bottle age)

Huon Hooke - The Real Review

Deep red colour with the last vestiges of purple tint. Ripe plummy bouquet, clean and fresh, and not shrill or simplistic. A tinge of spice, earth and faint chocolate. The palate is full, and round, soft and smooth, balanced and clean on the finish with a touch of cleansing tannin. There's plenty of sweetness mid-palate, then a clean, drying finish. Cleverly balanced wine. This would have wide appeal.

Tasting Notes

A South Australian specialty, and one of our most loved wines. This multi-vintage Shiraz wine is richly flavoured with deep colour and displays dark berry fruit aromas, sweet plum and spicy flavours, silky tannins and a rich, velvety smooth palate. The wine to drink with any meal - breakfast, lunch or dinner. We like to think of it as a Christmas brekky tradition! But of course, you can partner this wine with anything you like - cheese, canapés, duck, peppered beef skewers, or just enjoy it by itself! Serve chilled - around 8° to 10°C.
