In the Outback, Shiraz rules as the most widely planted black grape variety. However, in the Limestone Coast of Coonawarra, Cabernet Sauvignon is king. In this narrow strip of land, famous for its distinctive ‘Terra Rossa’ soil, Cabernet is fruit driven and tobacco-laced with great ageing potential. We reserve our Daisy and the Tambourine Man label for some of the best deals our Aussie Buyer, Dan Parrott, discovers. This year it’s a terrific Cabernet Shiraz made from low yielding, old vines. Matured in a combination of new and seasoned oak barrels, it’s a rich and expressive full-bodied red with an abundance of spicy, dark red fruit. Powerful and generous in its youth, it’ll gain complexity over the next few years, if you can resist it!
