About this product
Perfect example of what the magic that happens when blending Grenach, Shiraz and Mourvedre: the first lands sweetness of fruit, the second comes in with richness, and the latter frames the wine with complexity. Smooth, enjoyable, a true crowd pleaser.

Medium bodied red wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often medium in colour.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

A synergistic blend (Shiraz/Grenache) in this wine with no confection characters whatsoever; has wonderful texture in the layers of black and red fruits, oak and tannins in a calibrated support role.
