What Is Mataro Shiraz?

Mataro (Also known as Mourvedre) and Shiraz are natural blending partners. They both have a long history in Australia where they are often combined with Grenache to make a GSM, one of the worlds most popular red wine blends. In those blends, Mataro usually plays a supporting role. With this limited release we omit the Grenache and bring bold and brooding Mataro to the forefront, showcasing its delicious black fruit flavours, high tannin, and smoky, earthy flavours. Fruit-forward Shiraz enhances the dark fruit and adds notes of Chocolate and peppery spice, creating a delicious bold blend of Australian attitude.
