Overview

Gravel Track pays tribute to the long gravel and limestone track that winds its way through our historic 60-year-old Farms Vineyard. With grapes sourced from premium vineyards in the Barossa Valley, this wine was fermented at cooler temperatures for ten days followed by secondary fermentation and maturation in a combination of French and American oak for twelve months to add greater complexity and depth to the wine.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Brimming with blackcurrant and black cherry nuances and with layers of spice and tobacco on the nose, this is a powerful expression of the variety.

Palate

Lashings of blackcurrant on the palate are complemented by lengthy, fine grained tannins and hints of cedar oak from twelve months ageing in French oak.
