Our small block planted at the base of the hill enjoys all the sun it can get, often being the last variety to be picked each year. Open-fermented and hand plunged with skin contact for 15 days and traditional basket pressing. Restrained oak use helps to maintain vibrant florals and lifted aromatics. A medium bodied wine with briary fruits and complex notes of charcuterie and earth. A variety with over a century of history in McLaren Vale, though its popularity has ebbed and flowed over the years. Known for its ripe fruits and savoury, earthy under currents it provides a generous, robust mouth feel and loose knit tannin structure. In the past a small percentage of Mataro would be used to bolster colour and structure in our Shiraz.

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – Medium to deep garnet/purple, the Basket Pressed Mataro has notes of crushed black plums and warm black cherries with hints of fertile earth, charcoal and marmite toast. Full-bodied with tons of youthful vitality and freshness, it has a long and fruity finish.
