"The Holy Trinity is a staple for all Barossa wine lovers. One of the longest producing Barossa Grenache, Shiraz & Mourvèdre blends, this wine delivers complexity, depth and finesse with every release" Craig Stansborough, Winemaker

Medium purple colour with bright red hues. Delightfully complex on the nose with layers of lifted violet florals, lemon myrtle and hints of ground ginger. Elegant and complex with a mid-weighted palate that displays a combination of sweet spice, blood plum with light coco powder, raspberry and hints of white chocolate and nutmeg. The tannins are soft, silky and mouth coating, with a very fine texture.

The 2019 vintage was one of the driest we have experienced in recent years. There was below average winter rainfall, followed by a dry spring and summer. This produced wines that are rich and concentrated.

Crafted from three traditional Barossa varieties, Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvèdre. A portion of the wine is fermented in concrete fermenters using heading boards, a traditional old-world technique to help extract heavy colour and tannin

Food Pairing: Duck Confit or Chocolate Mousse.
