Kaurna Country.
Winemaker Brad Hickey calls this an “Aussie Côtes du Rhône” – and who are we to argue? Instead of banging up your typical grenache and shiraz-led blend, however, he’s put cinsault and carignan in the driver’s seat next to mataro, resulting in a wine that’s more lifted and perfumed. Ruby red in the glass, jam-packed with cherry intensity, a bundle of sweet baking spices and rose petals in full bloom on top. Big and generous and expressive, but balanced, too. So solid.
