The Y Series collection combines authentic Australian winemaking practices with a vibrant approach inspired by modern flavors. While simple and contemporary at first sight, the bright labels show subtle layers when considered closely. Each varietal features a unique illustration symbolizing the relationship between the wine and nature.
This 100% Shriaz wine is made by leaving the juice 1-3 days on its skins before wild yeast start to ferment in stainless steel tanks.
Tasting Notes: Deep crimson purple in color. A cascade of wild blackberries, chocolate coated cherries and Black Forest cake aromas with hints of Indian spices. Layers of ripe blackberries, raspberries, and cherries surrounded by fully ripe tannins and white pepper spice.

An inviting nose of plums, cherries, florals and a mint-and-pepper spice leads to a palate that's robust but fresh with satiny fruit tugged into place by chalk tannins. There's an astringency here, especially on the finish, but pair this with a tomato-based dish for tasty week-night sipping.
