An exceptional, deep purple & vivid in colour with bright hues - with perfumed, lifted berries and spice on the nose, intense black fruits, dark chocolate and mocha notes across the mid palate; wonderfully rich, layered and textural; this wine literally coats the mouth - and finishes with soft, long and silky tannins and toasty oak nuances.

The Region

THE GREAT SOUTHERN

It's said that the first vines were planted in the region in 1859, in 1965, we know of trial vineyards planted near Mount Barker, and both Riesling and a Cabernet Sauvignon were produced in 1972.

Recognition quickly followed.

Today, The Great Southern winemaking is in the hands of talented, award-winning winemakers operating world-class wineries across the region, providing region-wide quality assurance and continuous improvement across classic varietals, while also providing room for innovation, contemporary exploration and production. Now, Shiraz is predominate in The Great Southern winemaking alongside Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc , Malbec, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay.

According to wine critic, James Halliday, each of the wine region’s subregions produce distinctive wine styles and subregional flavours:

• Frankland River: for rich reds, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon

• Mount Barker: cool and complex, for structured examples of Riesling and Shiraz

Ideal climate and unique soils that we find in The Great Southern are ideal to grow and make the Vinaceous SNAKE CHARMER Shiraz
