🧑🌾 Why this exists
This is a non‑core blend for us - not a flagship, just honest, well‑made McLaren Vale red that we’d rather move on at a sharp price than sit on. If you like smooth, balanced reds for BBQs, midweek dinners, or keeping a six-pack on hand, this does the job comfortably.


Thanks Richard
