A perfume of grilled steak intermixed with blackberries, new saddle leather, earth, pepper, and melted licorice rises from this awesome red. With great power, richness, and no hard edges, it is still young and primary, but should hit its peak in 3-7 years, and last for two decades or more.

Kay's are specialist traditional red wine makers utilising grapes from their own 22-hectare Amery Vineyard.

A rich, round, soft, voluptuous, fruit driven Shiraz with a hint of confectionery sweetness in the background. A very approachable full bodied combination of blueberries, plum, Ribena, mocha chocolate, spice box, vanilla and pepper fill the palate with pleasurable flavours and the balanced soft tannin finish has both length and persistence.

The nose shows intense blackcurrant and cranberry fruit, and the subtle cedary cinnamon spice, barrel-ferment and oak derived aromas, violet and mint scents, as well as liquorice and chocolate smells. Interwined is this wounderful green edge that lifts the wine into a cool climate sepctrum which typifies the cold year. These aromas combine with some cassis, blueberry, and cranberry, with lingering mocha and plumy fruit and are just showing through amongst a long, intense vibrant, gritty fruit tannin finish.

Dense purple red almost black.  A powerful nose of ripe plums and succulent blackberries laced with a hint of cedar spice. Wow!  Bella's as always shows amazing depth and power whilst maintaining an elegant fruit purity.  Matured in all French oak, the majority being seasoned barrels, allowing the fruit to do the talking with only the merest hint of cedar oak to support the ripe plum and mulberry flavours.  Finely woven tannins produce a long linear wine forming a race track like structure along the palate.  Great length and persistency of flavour.

A rich, flavoursome, fruit driven combination of spicy dark cherry, pepper, blackberry, mulberry, briar, chocolate, ripe plum and vanillin oak.

Bold and youthful this multi-layered savoury delight will complement a range of foods and situations that demand a traditional and distinguished full bodied red wine.

The balanced acidity and fruit and oak tannins have all combined to make a rich satisfying wine, with full depth and length of palate. 

Typical of our McLaren Vale style, the 2005 shows delicious distinctive mocha, chocolate and sweet plum characters. Backed by a lush, plush mouthfeel and oodles of juicy ripe fruit laced with an underlying black pepper spice and a silky tight tannin structure. But don’t be deceived this is a serious wine with serious aspirations!
