Ougaely Wines Bundle 2 (Riverland Shiraz 2020 x 3 bottles, Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 x 3 bottles)

Description

Riverland Shiraz 2020 As the largest producer of wine in Australia, the Riverland is home to household names making popular wines that are poured all over the world. And its story goes beyond volume, with a growing number of small, premium producers planting Mediterranean varieties new to the region and adding diversity to the landscape. While the cherry, black-currant and black-liquorice candy notes suggest ripeness, the wine also has lifted acidity and an almost unexpected wallop of sinewy tannins. Dusty red Aussie earth notes add a sense of place while a stripped-back winemaking feel makes this a rustic, crowd pleasing barbecue wine at a weeknight price. Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 Coonawarra is famed for its age-worthy red wines and strip of terra rossa (‘red soil’) – one of the most valuable patches of earth in Australian wine. Cellar doors are packed close together, ready to welcome those who drive the distance. The wine is a bright magenta colour, with a dark garnet red hue, and the palate is elegant and rich, with eucalypt, mint and dark berry fruits accented with luscious fruit cake complexity all contributing to great length with dusty, fine grain tannins at the finish. This is an exceptional wine with all the characteristics of a classic Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon, with superb balance and depth.
