Description

  • Oaked
  • Red & black berries
  • Cassis
  • Spice

A medium-bodied palate with red and black berries. Layers of spice, dark plum, cassis and berry fruit adorn the palate - pleasantly held together by fine tannins. Smooth & delicious.

High spring rainfall and consistent temperatures throughout the growing season saw higher yields coupled with excellent flavour intensity. Overall, an exceptional year.

Each varietal is vinified & aged individually in French oak barrels before the final blending process. Shiraz adds the generous mouthfeel, Grenache the spice and cherry-like sweetness and Mataro the backbone, savoury edge and fragrance. Balance is crucial, each varietal’s contribution is evident, yet nothing competes for your attention.

Named in honour of the family’s original use for the building that now houses the Cellar Door, the Butchers Block Red is a structured, fruit driven & medium bodied wine. A crowd-pleasing style of wine that offers excellent value for money.

i thought i was buying a straight shiraz rather than a blend - but was pleasantly surprised - a bit gaunt but tasty enough
