  • This is a densely fruited red that has plenty of layers to the overall profile, mixing dark berries with ripe plums and peppery spice.
  • The blend is led by the McLaren Vales signature variety Shiraz which is supported by some seriously rich and fruity Durif.
  • This beastly Aussie Shiraz is most definitely suited to food pairing and is one for steaks, chops and big slow-cooked pots.

The Wine

Country of origin:

Australia

Region:

McLaren Vale

A big, bold, fruit-filled McLaren Vale red that twists and turns on the palate like the great mythical Leviathan that inspired this exceptional bottling. The core of the wine focuses on a wonderful parcel of McLaren Vale Shiraz, loaded with blackcurrant fruit and delicate spice with time in oak that has softened any rough edges. The finishing touch is given by an inspired winemaking decision to add a splash of super dense and concentrated Durif, which fills out the mid-palate and amps up the juiciness before the long, silky finish takes control.

The Winemaker

Andrea Maxell
Winemaker:

Andréa Maxwell

Andréa grew up in South Africa and completed her degree in Viticulture & Oenology at the University of Stellenbosch. Her love for wine developed early, starting a wine course while still in school. After two vintages in South Africa, she moved to Australia and has been ingrained in the industry since. In her spare time, she enjoys walking with her partner and their gorgeous English Cocker Spaniel, Darcy, through their own Shiraz vineyard in the heart of McLaren Vale.

If you talk about wine, it doesn’t matter what language you speak. It will intrinsically connect you to people.

"I’m really happy with how this blend turned out. A wine that offers notes of stewed plum, black cherry and chocolate red velvet. The palate is smooth and rich with subtle yet perfectly integrated oak. It is super long to finish and very well balanced." - Andréa Maxwell, Winemaker.
