WINE NOTES
The McLaren Vale has long been known for its luxurious red wines. This beauty was matured in small French & American oak barrels for two years before bottling. Hot summers with cool breezes at night allow McLaren Vale fruit to fully ripen and develop. This wine is destined to improve with age for up to ten years!
