Formerly know as Jigsaw Red this wine has now been re-branded Rosemount Road. From fruit drawn primarily from the Murray River Valley, each batch of grapes are kept separate and a small proportion of wine is oak matured before final blending, takes place. The Shiraz gives hints of exotic spices, the Grenache, lively ripe fruit and a generous texture, while dark plum flavours derive from the Mataro. (12 x 75 cl)

Plantagenet HELLFIRE BAY Shiraz Grenache Western Australia
Description: The Shiraz Grenache has an excellent depth of ruby red colour, with an attractive open berry perfume. On the nose it is spicy and ripe, with perfumes of plums and blackberries which follow through to the palate. Its smooth, rounded tannins have just enough structure to support the juicy fruit up to the finish. The Hellfire Bay wines are made at Plantagenet with fruit sourced from various vineyards in Western Australia. Legend says that the first white settlers arriving in Western Australia believed they were sailing through the gates of hell as they watched St. Elmo’s fire light up the sky above them. As they prayed for mercy they named the area Hellfire Bay. The wines over-deliver in every way; they have wonderful fruit intensity and as a result haven’t had to resort to residual sugar, as too many wines at this price level do. The oak handling is evident, but it adds richness and intensity rather than masking inferior fruit. (12 x 75 cl)
