This classic Australian blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon brings out the best of both worlds with plenty of rich, dark berries. Cabernet brings a leafy edge to the nose and the balanced, medium-to-full bodied palate. The old-vine vineyards may have come “as a bonus” when the Ashmeads bought their family home in Nuriootpa, but they’ve definitely become the star of the show!

A blend of Langhorne Creek and Barossa fruit, the 2016 E Series Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon ages in 500-liter puncheons. It combines herbal, tea-like notions with cherries on the nose. Medium to full-bodied, it's supple, easy to drink and finishes with a tart edge. Think of it as a midweek-burger red.
