The wine region of Barossa

World icon of Australian Shiraz (~50% of plantings). Powerful, sun-filled reds with signature notes of candied blackberry, black plum, dark chocolate, liquorice, leather and sweet spices (pepper, clove), round tannins and generous opulence. Old vines among the world's oldest (Shiraz from 1843, Turkey Flat). Also fruity, sun-filled Grenache, firm Mataro (Mourvèdre), dense Cabernet Sauvignon and ample Sémillon.


The wine region of Australie du Sud

Cradle of the great Australian Shiraz: powerful, sun-drenched reds with notes of blackberry, candied plum, pepper, chocolate and eucalyptus, ample tannins and vibrant fruit (Barossa, McLaren Vale). Firm, minty Cabernet Sauvignon on Coonawarra (terra rossa). Dry, lemony Riesling from Clare and Eden Valley, straight and taut. Fresh Sauvignon and Chardonnay from Adelaide Hills.

The word of the wine: Heavy

Said of a thick, rustic wine that lacks finesse.
