Tasting notes

Floral and fragrant, with cherry and small black fruits lifted by whole-bunch fermentation. The palate is juicy and supple, with fine tannins and subtle spice from nine months in French oak, finishing fresh and long. A distinctive Australian take on a Portuguese grape.

About this wine

A Touriga from McLaren Vale in the Heirloom Vineyards range. Elena Brooks, born in Lyaskovets, Bulgaria, was one of the first Bulgarians to graduate in oenology at the University of Adelaide and is the chief winemaker of Dandelion Vineyards, working with old heirloom vineyards in South Australia.

The best bunches are selected on sorting tables, and 30% of the selection is fermented with whole bunches. Before bottling, the wine ages for 9 months in custom-made French oak barrels. It shows notes of cherry, small black fruits and flowers.

Serve at 16–18 °C with red or white meat and soft cheeses.
