Wine Description
This wine shows true varietal characteristics of a good Nero d’Avola - a very approachable medium bodied red with a delightful balance of aromatic ripe dark fruits of violets and plum. A hint of savoury oak, balanced acidity and soft ripe tannins make for a long and satisfying finish. Great with tomato-based Mediterranean dishes and barbequed red meats, or even with your favourite burger.
Wines in this range include: Prosecco, Vermentino, Pinot Grigio, Moscato, Sangiovese Rose, Nero d'avola, Nebbiolo and Frizzante Maestri.

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.
