1 x Farm Hand Monash Valley Organic Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 (Australia)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Best Value: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2020

AWARDED 90/100 POINTS & 4.5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"The wine is attractively fruited and fragrant on the nose showing blackcurrant, vanilla, almond and floral characters, followed by a beautifully weighted palate that is elegant yet flavoursome. It is silky and lingering with ripe fruit flavours and spicy nuances. At its best: now to 2023" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

The nose is lifted and expressive, displaying mellow red fruits, a dusty herbal perfume, and notes of mocha oak. The palate is likewise open and medium bodied with blackcurrant, olive and mulberry flavours matched by subtle notes of tobacco. The wine is generous in the mid palate before soft tannins and bright acidity carry the wine to a lingering finish.

Food Pairing: The wine looks great on its own or with richer red meat cuisine.

Alc: 13%

2 x Road To Enlightenment Shiraz 2018 (Australia)

Awarded 93/100 Points & 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Perfumed and inviting, the wine shows sweet raspberry, dark plum, vanilla, hazelnut and cocoa characters on the nose, followed by a succulent palate that is plump and velvety. It is fabulously fruited and beautifully flowing to a lingering silky finish. At its best: now to 2022" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

A lifted nose of blackberry, cherry, tar and spice. A youthful, plump and fruit-filled palate is driven long and fine with supple tannins and fine natural acidity. This wine is full of flavour yet not too heavy, making it a wonderful match to many cuisine.

Alc: 14%

1 x Take It To The Grave Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 (Australia)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Best Value: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2020

Great depth of colour and a fragrant, aromatic nose reminiscent of cooler vintages in Bordeaux. Loads of complex characters with hints of cassis, graphite and vital black fruit flavours. The palate is medium to full in weight, claret-like with its grippy but integrated tannins ensuring a long finish. Excellent in its youth it will also reward with short term cellaring. Perfect with lamb dishes.

Food Pairing: The perfect drink for a picnic with cheese, cold meats, patés and terrines.

1 x Little Giant Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 (Australia)

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Best Value: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2020

AWARDED 94/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019

"A gorgeous expression of the variety; the inviting bouquet shows blackcurrant, dark plum, cedar and vanilla characters with a touch of tobacco. The palate is equally satisfying with succulent fruit intensity, backed by supple mouthfeel and fine, chalky tannins. Flavoursome and highly enjoyable. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, May 2019

Vibrant bright crimson red with deep purple hues. Showing a lifted perfumed nose of blackcurrant and mulberry fruit and followed by a chocolate oak with subtle spice character. The palate shows dark berry fruit flavours upfront with hints of nutmeg and subtle herb and red florals in the finish. Supple varietal tannins give classical framework and weight to the wine which finishes with integrated fruit and oak driving a long finish.

Alc: 14.5%

1 x Take It To The Grave Shiraz 2018 (Australia)

AWARDED TROPHY: Avante Garde Label of the Show: New Zealand International Wine Show 2018

AWARDED TROPHY: Best New Design of a Wine Brand: Brand Drinks International Wine Design Challenge Series

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: Best Value: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2020

AWARDED GOLD MEDAL: New World Wine Awards 2019

AWARDED 93/100 POINTS & 5 STARS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2019

"Gorgeously ripe and inviting, the bouquet shows sweet blackberry, blueberry compote, toasted nut and subtle spice characters with a lovely accent of violet. The palate delivers excellent weight and intensity together with plump mouthfeel and silky tannins, leading to a lengthy velvety finish. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2019

It is full-bodied and very aromatic showing purple berry fruits, dark chocolate and cooling spices. The fruit has weight and evenness whilst the fine tannins and integrated acidity drive persistence to the length.

Sourced from a selection of mature, dry-grown vineyards in Langhorne Creek managed by Jim Zerella (delivering intensity, length and structure) and blended with a parcel of Barossa Valley Shiraz from Light Pass and the eastern slopes that provided opulent fruit depth.

Alc: 14.5%
