About the wine
Vibrant, juicy Limestone Coast red
- This red blend is a classic cool climate example of its kind. The delightful union of two beautiful areas of the Limestone Coast: Mount Benson and Bool Lagoon, each bringing their own characteristics to the wine.
- The Hoopers used low intervention winemaking to allow those fabulous grapes to shine. Cassis and red berries hit you first, followed by a touch of fresh eucalyptus. Take a sip to enjoy the smooth tannins riding on a wave of ripe plum and blackberry flavours.
- Smooth and aromatic, this juicy red is bound to please a lot of palates. You can’t go past it for the price - it’s outstanding value considering the craftsmanship and quality of the fruit!
Best before
This wine will get better with a bit of aging. Will increase the complexity in 1 or 2 years time
Serving advice
In good cheer and fine occasion
Food match
This wine would pair very well with steak, curried meat, ragout, mushrooms or gamey meet.
Contains sulphites
