Wirra Wirra
The ironstone cellars of Wirra Wirra house a history rich in mischief, adventure and dedication to creating great wines. The winery was built in 1894 by an eccentric former state cricketer, who absconded to McLaren Vale after embarrassing his family one too many times. It was re-built in the late 1960's by a visionary who dreamt of returning Wirra Wirra to its former glory. Greg Trott did more than that, he created a legacy of being dedicated to your craft while being equally serious about having fun and enjoying life.
Description
Colour: Deep crimson and mahogany with great clarity at the rim. Bouquet: The nose displays classic red and blackcurrant fruits, tobacco leaf, choc mint with stylish touches of seasoned cedar and leather. Palate: A lovely weighted palate with a ripe core of cassis and plum, tightly knit with fresh cedar and balanced on a spine of fine, powdery tannins.
Food Pairing
Slow roasted lamb shoulder, sweet potato mash, parsnip chips and orange gremolata.
