Why you'll love it
A top single-vineyard Shiraz—biodynamic, complex and cellar-worthy.
Bold blackberry, dark chocolate and spice with smooth tannins and a long, fresh finish.
Great with lamb, venison or rich stews.
Best known in Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale
The Australian name for Syrah, and the style is often different. Rich and ripe, with blackberry, plum, chocolate and peppery spice. Bold, generous and often oak-aged, especially from the Barossa and McLaren Vale, with cooler regions giving a more peppery style.
Australia
Just south of Adelaide, McLaren Vale has the sea, the hills, and some of Australia's most characterful Shiraz and Grenache. Less bombastic than the Barossa, with more of an earthy, Mediterranean quality. Old vine Grenache here is genuinely special.
