DESCRIPTION
AHere is an Australian wine with a French twist! A blend of three flagship varieties from the south-eastern part of France : Mataro, Carignan and Cinsault. The peppery notes of the Mataro fit perfectly with the rosy, floral flavours of the Carignan and the sweet, cherry fruitiness of the Cinsault. Its bouquet of cloves, cinnamon, cherries and roses is both wild and feminine. The palate offers an attractive contrast between the dark spices and the fresh, fruity acidity. Rustic and bright, this is the perfect wine for tapas or a charcuterie and cheese board.
REGION
McLaren Vale
Australia
The McLaren Vale wine region, just south of Adelaide, is highly regarded in Australia and around the world. Shiraz tops the list of the region's award winning wines, making McLaren Vale a favourite place to grow this grape. Cabernet Sauvignon is another key variety, along with Grenache and Mourvèdre, which together with Shiraz make some of the most acclaimed GSM blends in the region. Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc lead the white grapes of McLaren Vale, with a wealth of other regional and international specialities such as Merlot, Zinfandel, Tempranillo, Sangiovese and Viognier also making their mark.
