There is the multiple award-winning Shiraz that is bursting with black fruit flavours and a perfectly balanced blend of ripe spicy Shiraz with blackberry and herbal scented Cabernet Sauvignon.Steve and his winemaking team are the guys and girls behind our amazing Black Pig range and this is the latest addition. Aged in oak barrels for 6 years under a voile ‘veil’ of yeast - similar to Sherry - exposed to oxygen, but unfortified. The vines are healthier and more resilient and can often produce fruit of more personality and purity, and because these wines are made without any chemicals or inorganic fertilisers, they are better for you as well! The open and intense Shiraz fruit of this wine, combined with the rich meaty texture would be best served with a rack of lamb.

Wild indigenous yeasts are used for fermentation; fining and filtration is generally avoided; dry farming, manual labour, the traditional method of horse and plough are other examples of the natural approach. A revelation if you're more used to the thumping, ostentatious style typical of the more traditional Aussie fare.A classic Shiraz packed with intense black fruit, peppery spice and a finish that is as long as the Nile. To start off there is the Cabernet Sauvignon from 16 Little Black Pigs - this fruity gem pairs superbly alongside slow-roast lamb. A wine that is ready to go right away but for those who like their wines a little mellower it will cellar for another 5 years happily and soften as the months drift away. Vin Jaune ‘Yellow Wine’, is a dry white wine made from late harvest Savignin in the Jura region in the east of France.
