Wine Description
The Venus Express is best described as a feminine Barossan blend. A voluptuous medium body yet full flavoured and approachable wine to entice the 'I don't drink red wine' novice or enchant and delight the connoisseur alike.
Bright red fruit of cherry and raspberry. Layers of redskin confection interlaced with whole bunch spice, wrap around a delicious caramel core. This pepped up, silky tannin treat, will demand you come back for more!

Winemaker's Bio
Stefan Dewey’s first ‘taste’ of the wine industry was in 2007, working a vintage for Kellermeister Wines. He went on to work in retail, distribution and marketing before committing to his love of production.
Stefan is extremely passionate about the Barossa Valley; its geology, range of soil profiles and the resultant expressions from each individual site, and feels both spoilt and honoured to produce wines from this great region. Hence Dewey Station’s fruit focused, minimal intervention (where appropriate) winemaking philosophy, allowing the vineyard, its soil and meso-climate to express itself. Crafting wines with a sense of place.
