A Growers Touch is a range of wines that pay homage to the vine growers, showcasing the best local fruit. This Shiraz comes from the vineyard of grower Pat Calabria who has worked with Mino & Co for over 15 years and is established in the Riverina appellation of New South Wales.
Vibrant crimson and burgundy in appearance, this wine brings lush aromas of dark berries and currants underlaid with hints of chocolate. A palate of wild blackberry and forest fruits with rich, velvet tannins. Try with grilled or roast beef, hearty stews and casseroles, or strong, hard cheeses.
In 1873 French judges, tasting blind, praised wines from Australia, but withdrew when the provenance was revealed, saying that wines of that quality must clearly be French. Vines have been grown successfully in Australia since the 1820s as European settlers realised that the Mediterranean climate was ideal for viticulture.
