Wine Description
Taken from a single Vineyard on the Barossa floor, Barossa. Grown on ancient biscay soil with a low fertility. The wine has an intense brick red colour with a bouquet of red currant and dark cherry fruit with mulberry notes. The wine has been crafted to enhance the rich, dark cherry and cassis fruit, with 40% new French oak, resulting in plush and juicy flavours with an elegant, soft, velvety tannin finish. Extended aging in the bottle before release integrates the unique characters of this premium Cabernet over time. The result is a complex wine that is also vegan friendly.

Winemaker's Bio
Barossa born multi trophy winning winemaker Joanne Irvine is a highly sought after, small batch wine making specialist. Jo left home to pursue a career spanning 18 years as a nurse until she had what she describes as a “mid- life crisis” and became a winemaker.
Creating wines since 1993, including vintages in Sonoma and Napa USA, Jo could never have guessed that at age 7, while following her winemaking father around a winery, she would have started a successful wine consulting company in 2003 and created her own dynamic wine brand in 2014, Levrier by Jo Irvine.
