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: Yeast

Micro-organisms at the base of all fermentative processes. A wide variety of yeasts live and thrive naturally in the vineyard, provided that treatments do not destroy them. Unfortunately, their replacement by laboratory-selected yeasts is often the order of the day and contributes to the standardization of the wine. Yeasts are indeed involved in the development of certain aromas.
