Winemaker Notes
Big, bold and beautiful! The Aussie Salute is a blend of succulent Shiraz, spicy Grenache and a whiff of aromatic Viognier - a feisty combination that works wonders on the palate. Rich, fragrant and inviting, this wine expresses blackberry, plum, currant and black pepper notes.
Made with structure and grip, the vibrant, juicy length lingers with a "have another glass" finish. Drink now or hide in the cellar for 3 years.
Food pairings: Spinach salad with goat cheese and dried cherries; penne pasta with feta, peppers and sausage; soy-ginger flank steak with grilled eggplant.
"A blend of Shiraz (70%), Grenache (25%) and Viognier (5%), this is a lush, weighty red imbued with earhty flavors of espresso, olives and dark-skinned plums that linger on the finish. The creamy texture makes it go down easy; pair it with grilled or roasted meats." 89 Points,
