Pairs well with Beef
About this product
Pairs well with BeefSumptuous vegan-friendly Wrattonbully blend.
Plush Merlot with savoury Tempranillo.
Bursting with red berry fruit with a spicy lift.
Region: Wrattonbully, SA.
Colour: Ruby red.
Nose: Red berries, hints of dried herbs and tomato bush.
Palate: Plush plum, red berries and a spicy lift, with great structure and drive on the palate and savoury tannin structure.
Food Match: Matches well with duck and beef, of course!
Despite some nail-biting brushes with frost, 2019 turned out to be an excellent vintage and produced arguably the best wines from the area since 2004. Cool early season conditions led to low yields in Cabernet Sauvignon but all other varieties yielded well. Hot weather in
January and February had marginal impact on our vineyard and by the time ripening was well underway in March, conditions had cooled considerably. This led to one of the longest ripening seasons for many years and the last fruit was harvested in May. The long 'hang time' led to fruit of great flavour and balance. Wines have intense colour and flavor and the long slow ripening has produced very good integration and balance of tannins. We are expecting 2019 reds to be outstanding.
