Description
The 2015 vintage is a blend of Grenache, Mourvèdre, Shiraz, Cinsault and Carignan. These varieties are historically grown in the southern Rhone Valley of France near the Mediterranean, and are blended together to make the local wine. These varieties also have a natural affinity for the Barossa Valley.
Appearance
Bright red with a medium purple hue.
Aroma
The aroma is of cherries, strawberries, spice and Provencale herbs.
Palate
The palate is wonderfully fresh and with juicy forest fruits, dried herbs and a creamy complexity derived from its maturation on yeast lees in old French oak barrels. The concentrated fruits, fine tannin and perfectly integrated acid complete the wine.

Why his top Shiraz is called The Mad Hatter?
"Despite appearances, it's not a ploy to grab some literary credibility and align Dean [Hewitson] with Lewis Carroll.'Hatter' is actually the nickname Dean's closest friends have used for years... and as for the "Mad"... well those you who've spent any more than 5 minutes with the man will surely understand."
