Wine Description
Dark vibrant red in colour with lifted aromas of black cherry and chocolate. On the palate concentrated dark fruit flavours are complemented by subtle oak characters of mocha and spice. Full bodied and well-structured with firm ripe tannins providing balance and length. Excellent match with any grilled red meat, slow cooked lamb shoulder or a rich saucy casserole.
Wines in this range include: Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Shiraz.

Winemaker's Bio
Anthony Murphy graduated from Roseworthy College in 1978 with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Oenology and began his winemaking career at Mildara Blass before establishing Trentham Estate with his brother Patrick in 1988.
In 2006 Anthony and Pat were nominated for Australian Gourmet Traveller WINE magazine’s ‘Winemaker of the Year’ award; the brothers were the first grapegrowing-winemaking team from an irrigated Murray region to be nominated. Another highlight of Anthony’s career has been receiving the Trophy for best shiraz at the 2008 International Wine & Spirit Competition.
