More Information

"Rich, savoury red of medium weight, fine grip and general sense of vitality. Redolent of dark berries, char and pot pourri with faint game meat notes wafting around. The palate is brighter than expected from that sweet earthy hit of perfume, lifted on blood orange acidity and cinched with a web of fine and firming, feathery tannins. It’s deeply flavoured yet filigreed and fresh. A succulent, delicious and classy red of strong regional character. A delight." Rated : 95 Points.  Mike Bennie.  The Wine Front.

"Dorrien and Shiller vineyard, Light Pass; partial whole bunch fermentation; regular pump overs and pigeage; 10 days' post-ferment maceration; 18 months' maturation in 11% new French oak barriques. It takes some talent to craft mataro that can fly solo as confidently as this. The cool '17 season heightens fragrance and red berry fruit tang, framed by fine, confident tannins and vibrant acidity that promise great potential."  Tyson Stelzer.

Where this wine comes from - Barossa Valley

The Barossa Valley is Australia’s best-known wine region and there’s a good reason why. The wines certainly live up to their international reputation, particularly Barossa Shiraz. With long, warm summers, the region produces full-bodied styles with power and panache. The reds are rich and luscious in their youth with dark-berried flavours, fruit intensity and fine-grained tannins, which mature gracefully with time in the cellar. But there’s more to the region than Shiraz. Grenache and Mourvèdre do more than play a supporting role in GSM blends, they’re standing on their own two feet as single varietal wines. And with a new school of winemakers at the helm, the region is in good hands for a long and healthy future.

    Caillard Mataro 2017

    I always look forward to the new release of Caillard Mataro. What a beautiful but unheralded wine. I consider it to be up to the standard of the best wines produced in Australia- but don't tell everyone or it won't be so damn cheap!
