This is a medium bodied Bordeaux blend bursting with flavour. Raspberry and anise, violet and black cherry. A fragrant wine, very much red fruited and feminine in profile. A core of bright juicy fruit, framed by fine grained powdery tannins. Elegant and medium bodied, flavours of raspberry licorice, roasted coffee beans and dark chocolate complete the package. Drink with: Roast eggplant parpardelle, Pork dumplings, Roasted duck breast.

Passion. Spontaneity. Soul. Just a few words that come to mind when we get ready to introduce our winemaker, Kate Goodman. Kate is one of Australia's best contemporary winemakers. Wineries such as Wirra Wirra ( McLaren Vale), Tim Kanppstein (Clare Valley), Seppelt (Great Western), Punt Road (Yarra Valley) have all benefited from Kate's brilliance. There is no denial of talent and absolute harmony when it comes to Kate and the winery which we have witnessed each year since she started in 2016. Her investment in us is what has fed their evolution into creating some spectacular contemporary varietals. And with the addition of winemaker, Lauren Hansen, it's as though they have taken an almighty breath of fresh Coonawarra air and are totally inspired.
