Rocco Shiraz 2022
Portrait Series
$48.00
“Large in stature, humble by nature, our grandfather Rocco travelled halfway around the world to build a new life for himself and his bride in the Adelaide Hills. He worked the soil of his Basket Range market garden tirelessly for many decades as his family grew and prospered. His leap of faith continues to resonate, and he takes his rightful place in our Portrait Series as the one who embraced the pioneering spirit and, ultimately, determined our place in the Adelaide Hills”.
This cool climate Shiraz shows lifted dark plums and spice aromas entwined with a subtle hint of orange peel and white pepper. Am elegant palate with rich fruit tones, finishing with velvety smooth tannins
A match made in heaven with Asian style sticky braised beef cheeks.
