The Story Behind the Bottle
If you like your Shiraz to be big, bold and brimming with upfront blackberry spice, you’re going to love Brass Monkey. It’s from winemaker Toby Wanklyn, a talented character with a roguish sense of fun. Toby loves his Shiraz, and much of the fruit for this big, juicy red comes from his favourite vineyard, prized for producing really ripe yet balanced flavour. The reason behind its consistent quality is that the local climate’s relatively cold temperature gives grapes a longer time to ripen. This allows the character in the Shiraz more chance to develop whilst retaining freshness and aroma. The result is wine with huge amounts of fruit, that’s never overpowering. Great sipped solo, it’s also good with roast meats or a veggie moussaka.
