Sixty Clicks Shiraz Mataro is a bright and extremely drinkable red wine, silky smooth with red fruit notes and a spicy finish. A great choice for BBQs or get-togethers.

Production

The Shiraz and Mataro grapes used in this blend come from the flatter parts of the vineyard in north-west Victoria. The vineyards run from east to west ensuring they gain the maximum amount of sunlight to give the grapes all the development they need on the red sandy loam soils with clay sub-soil. Grapes are harvested by machine at night, arriving at the winery to be crushed within the hour and pressed by bag and then moved to the fermentation tanks, where they spend 4 weeks with oak staves, on their skins and pumped over four times a day.

Tasting Notes

A really expressive, bright, contemporary Aussie red. The nose of soft, open, chocolatey fruit has a clove note with a palate of fresh brambly, cherry-red fruit that leads to a gently spicy finish. Great with a BBQ in the summer, comforting meat casseroles in the winter, or just a great all-rounder in between.
