Description

This Shiraz, Grenache, Mataro, Viognier blend is a tribute to Henry Evans who planted the first vineyard of seven acres at Keyneton in 1853. He quickly developed a reputation for producing the best wines in the southern colony. Following Henry’s death in 1868, his widow Sarah exercised her temperance convictions by closing the winery and uprooting all the wine grapes. This blend highlights the historical introduction of southern French and Spanish varieties to South Australia in those early pioneering days and reflects the history, religion and culture of the Barossa.

Tasting Profile

Nose
Dark Fruits, Five Spice, Dried Herbs. Attractive black fruits and red berries. A hint of florality provides a much-needed lift to the bouquet. Savoury herbs, brown spices and anise.
Palate
Plush, Juicy, Muscular. Plenty of bright red berries in addition to darker berry-fruit aromas lightened by Grenache and spiced up by the other three grape varieties. There's a very crunchy palate with loads of fleshy fruit.
