especially with creamy desserts and chocolate

Winemaker Franco Massolino has done a wonderful job of marrying change with a respect for tradition

As the name suggests this is seriously old Amontillado

Tim Gramp Clare Valley Watervale Shiraz 2014 pierro especially with creamy desserts andThe fruit for this wine was sourced off Paddy and Maxine Brazels single site vineyard located in the township of Watervale. A seductive, full bodied style exhibiting spice and blackberry aromas. The complex berry flavours are a result of time honoured basket pressing, balanced with fine tannins and subtle oak, finishing with length and depth. Time in the cellar of 7 10 years.
