About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of Cabernet BlendMcLaren Vale, AustraliaThe iconic Wirra Wirra Church Block, first crafted in 1972, continues its reputation as a red of outstanding value, offering both richness and a smoothly finished character. This full-bodied blend showcases a vibrant profile of red, black, and blue berries, uplifted by a menthol hint and earthy undertones of sweet vanilla spice. While super-approachable in its youth, the wine possesses a firm, drying tannin structure and abundant energy, marking it as a collectible that is just entering its ideal drinking window and has the proven capacity to cellar beautifully for ten years or more.

Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.
