Down The Rabbit Hole Tempranillo, 2016

Juicy black cherries with liquorice and spice followed by earthy cocoa notes are held together with silky tannins which provided a lengthy finish. This wine keeps you coming back for more

The fruit for Down The Rabbit Hole Tempranillo is grown in South Willunga, McLaren Vale. Warm Summer days are cooled by evening sea breezes from St Vincent’s Gulf, which lies a close proximity to the West. The soil is rich loam over clay with patches of underlying limestone, giving the wine a rich and fullness of pallet. The Mediterranean climate of McLaren Vale is well suited to growing this Spanish variety.

WINEMAKING NOTES, WALTER CLAPPIS

The 2016 Vintage was warm and dry throughout Summer producing intense colour and flavour. After spending 8 days on skins, the wine was pressed into seasoned oak to mature for 12 months.

COLOUR

Dark cherry red with plum hues

BOUQUET

Vibrant cherries and blueberries, plus liquorice & spice

PALATE

Dark cherries and licorice follow through onto the palate, while smooth cocoa tannins provide a lengthy finish.

Suitable for vegans!

  • Claymore ‘Nirvana’ Reserve Shiraz, 2017

    Add to cart
    £29.95

    This is the icon of legendary Claymore wines portfolio. You will never view a Shiraz in the same way.

    This is a wine of elegance, finely structured and delicately balanced. Big juicy fruits are balanced by savoury, spicy elements in the mouth. Lusciously rich plums, blackberries and liquorice are wrapped in gently charry oak brought into line with crisp acidity.

  • Maxwell, Ellen Street Shiraz, 2012

    Add to cart
    £23.95

    COLOUR AND NOSE

    The colour of cherry red. This wine shows aromas of coffee and vanilla bean, violets, glacé fruits and cherries.

    PALATE

    Flavours of plum, chocolate, and blackberry are immediate in the first sip. This Shiraz shows clean minerality from the limestone sub soils and rich earthy characters through the middle palate offering intense concentration of fruit with soft velvety tannin to complete this wine.

    CELLARING POTENTIAL

    Given satisfactory cellaring conditions, it is expected this wine will drink particularly well at 6 to 8 years of age.

    £16.95

    Made with selected parcels of estate grown fruit from Claymore’s Watervale and Penwortham vineyards, the 2014 Dark Side of the Moon Shiraz proves again the exceptional quality of their low yielding non-irrigated vines.

    Maturation on oak barrels complements juicy dark berry fruit in this full flavoured wine – rich and generous with a soft, lingering finish. You are invited to explore the ‘dark side’ – now or after 6+ years in the cellar.
