About this product
Semprevino, a conjunction of two Italian words translating as Always Wine, is a name that reflects winemaker Russell Schroder’s passion to create wines of timeless style. Our flagship wine is a pure representation of this philosophy being a classic blend of old vine McLaren Vale Grenache and Shiraz with a dash of Mourvedre depending on the season.
"A 72/22/6% blend, open-fermented, matured for 16 months in 10yo French barriques. Exceptional colour, which turns out to accurately drop the starter’s flag on a deliciously juicy palate trimmed by savoury tannins to simultaneously provide balance, texture and structure." 92 Points - James Halliday Wine Companion

Medium bodied red wines have a lightly textured mouthfeel with moderate flavour impact. Often medium in colour.
Semi-dry wines are perceptibly sweet but leaning towards dry.
