The Little Giant Big Hitters Collection (Australia) (04)

Description

Smoke, Spice, Strawberry

These little-big hitters have easily become some of our most popular and sought after Australian reds.

Stocky, robust and the proud state emblem of South Australia - like the might of the little wombat, Little Giant is crafted from premium regional South Australian fruit from established vineyards that deliver character and interest well above their size and weight. Hand-crafted and made with minimal additions and preservatives, these are wines made of the vineyard. Don’t let their size fool you, these are wines you’ll want to drink!

Collection includes:

2 x Little Giant Barossa Shiraz 2022 (Australia)

Awarded Gold Medal: China Wine & Spirits Awards 2024
Awarded 93/100 Points & 5 Stars: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2023

"Richly ripe and fragrant with dark berry, smoked game, cumin and cedar characters, it's succulent and weighty in the mouth with silky texture and fine-grained tannins. Generous and flavoursome with a lingering delectable finish. At its best: now to 2032" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Nov 2023

The wine displays more elegance and lift through the cooler Eden Valley fruit which adds terrific aromatic lift, interest, and freshness. This is a contemporary Barossa Shiraz having spent maturation time in older oak adding subtle vanilla and chocolate nuances. There’s softness on the finish while maintaining freshness and vibrancy.

Food Pairing: Pair with a classic beef and mushroom pie.

2 x Little Giant Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 (Australia)

Awarded 92/100 Points & Silver Medal: Campbell Mattinson, Sep 2022

Aromatics of rich blackberry fruits and spice, lifted with perfume. The palate is deep with black currant, and mulberry, subtle oak provides a hint of chocolate and nutmeg. Chalky varietal tannins give classical framework and weight to the wine which finishes with integrated fruit and oak driving a long finish.

Food Pairing: Perfect with Roast leg of lamb and Dutch carrots.

2 x Little Giant South Australia Pinot Noir 2023 (Australia)

A bigger more flavoursome Pinot Noir, showing regional character. There’s vibrant strawberry and cherry aromas on the nose enhanced by an earthy intensity. It strikes a balance of sweet and savoury fruit on the palate with a complexing length that displays cleansing acidity with soft tannins and a lasting finish. An extremely versatile Pinot Noir that can hold its own, enjoy chilled or at room temperature.

Vintages may change.
