2021 The Red

2021 The Red

The Red 2021 is made from 100% elegant cool-climate Kangaroo Island Shiraz.

On the nose, there's pepper, eucalyptus & toasted vanilla.  On the palate, cherry, mulberry & red fruits, with a hint of charry oak. A generous round mouth feel leads to a lingering finish.

Designed for everyday drinking, pair The Red with barbeques, casseroles, burgers & even Friday night pizza with mates.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
"30% extended maceration post mechanical harvest late April. Matured 5 months in French puncheons (30% new). The crimson magenta hue is striking. Positively juicy, with black cherry and plum fruit; tannin extract minimal. Altogether unusual wine, and it would be interesting to buy 6 or so bottles and track its development over the next 5 years or more." James Halliday
