Product Description
The AAA on the label pays homage to David’s days in the wool trade and was stamped on the best grades of wool by the Guesser. It is a vibrant blend of Shiraz, Grenache and Mataro from some special little pockets amongst our vineyards. The Shiraz was selected from the ‘Gateway’ and ‘Jones Block’ vineyards, renowned for producing some of the best fruit in the region. These select parcels were blended with complimentary Grenache to create a wine that is engaging to a wide range of drinkers. Our blend is fun, appealing and, unlike some members of Paxton, not over the top.
Profile

60% Shiraz, 40% Grenache

Bright fruit rich mid-palate, with a soft and juicy finish that is supple and leaves you wanting more. Hints of raspberries and a round effervescent finish that lifts the wine completely giving a long and generous finish.

Bright crimson red with a purple hue.
Aroma
A floral aromatic wine with lifted cherries and blueberries. Lovely smoky vanillin hints from delicate use of French oak combine perfectly with whole bunch characters.
