Sample
An example of Orange meeting Barossa with a full bodied and fruit driven wine that owns its 15.2% alcohol and generous impact of new oak.

The nose has plum and blackberry fruit with some earthen tones and rich vanillin impact. The palate is backed by a drying baseline of black cherry and dark cocoa which gives contrast to flowing black fruits. The finish has an underlying savoury thread and a long spice laden finish that can only come from plenty of new oak. Classy, seductive and moreish.
