Tasting Notes:

Deep purple/crimson colour. Lifted fresh fruit aromas of blackberry and plum. Secondary characters of dark chocolate, dried herbs and spice add complexity to the bouquet. Luscious red berry and cassis characters throughout the palate while subtle spice and dark chocolate characters add complexity. The mid-palate is soft and round with long elegant tannins and a velvety, persistent finish

Technical:

Fruit was harvested at night and early in the morning then taken directly to the winery to be de-stemmed. The must was then transferred to a static fermenter where warm controlled fermentation was carried out. Post fermentation the wine was transferred into barrel for malolactic fermentation. The wines were racked after MLF and returned to oak for 12 months maturation before final blending and barrel selection for the second six.

This Premium dry red blend is made up of 60% Clare Merlot & 40% Clare Shiraz

Accolades & Awards:

Previous Vintage Review James Halliday Wine Companion;

"Has the power and much of the black fruit flavours of The Six, but more obvious extract and tannins; that said, has a greater reservoir of fruit, and given time, might emerge in front of it."

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jane from This wine is soooo good and a great price I have bought a few cases of this over the last year. GWD often offer it at a great price - it has some age on it, which is noticeable in the taste

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cape York from I bought this for a great price and its fantastic. Anything 'Watervale' is usually bang on and this ticks all the boxes. Great wine at great value from a great winery.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ando from great wine Always nervous when I order a dozen untried reds. Very happy with this wine ,obviously great quality fruit ,smooth but complex taste.I would rate it as one of my best Get Wines Direct purchases. Waiting to see if it comes on special again as quite a few have disappeared from my wine fridge

Rated 5 out of 5 by Shorli from Great Balance I bought this a couple of years back for my daughters wedding. The 2013 was even better and a steal at the "summer" special price.
