A wine crafted by McGuigan winery, the only winery to be named International Winemaker of the Year four times by the International Wine & Spirits Competition in London, McGuigan’s “The Philosophy” truly reflects dedication to quality. A blend of 56% Cabernet Sauvignon and 44% Shiraz, first pressings are fermented in open concrete vats, followed by 24 months aging in new and 12 month old French oak and held an additional 2 years in the bottle before release. This wine is worth the wait as it is full bodied, with complex layers of cassis, blueberries plum and dry herbs.
ABV % = 14.5
Clare Valley is located in the northern portion of the state of South Australia. It is home to Australia's unique expression of dry Riesling, typified by candied lime characteristic, as well as a hint of that telltale petrol note which sometimes develops in Riesling.
