About the wine
'Tongue in Cheek' is a saucy Friday night Barossa red
-
This fun drop is soft and juicy, and all about sharing a glass with your mates while watching the footy, having a BBQ, or just kicking back and enjoying life!
-
20 parcels of grapes from 15 different growers went into this playful red to layer the unique characters of each. They were kept separate until blending and matured in sophisticated French oak.
-
With a nod to Rhone reds, the final wine is a tango of spice, structure and generous fruit flavours. Red plums and cherries on the tongue with chewy tannins, it's unfined, lightly filtered and vegan friendly.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jason Schwarz
Jason has built Schwarz Wine Co into a 5 star winery, but he didn’t start out as a winemaker. Growing up on his father’s vineyard, he thought he was better suited to selling wine than making it. But working holidays in famous far off wine regions quickly changed all that. As the grape juice stained his skin, he realised his calling was making, not marketing.
Back in his Barossa backyard, Jason worked in local wineries to soak up skills from the region's finest winemakers. It solidified his passion for small-batch, hand-crafted wines from old Barossa vines — and a deep respect for the families who tend them.
“My small-batch wines are not mainstream, they’re new-age expressions of Barossa classics, designed to allow the fruit to speak for itself and tell a story through the glass. I hope you’ll agree,” says Jason. And thanks to the Angels, you can now try this special wine for yourself!
