"Shiraz is the driver of this effortlessly powerful wine, the medium to full-bodied palate with multiple layers of blackberry, liquorice, .spice and dark chocolate fruit" (James Hallidays Australian Wine Guide)
Arguably Australia’s premier Rhone-style red, Nine Popes started out as a tribute to the Chateauneufs that Charlie enjoyed and has gone on to surpass many of them. A Grenache-based wine with some Shiraz and Mourvedre, it has wonderful flavours of blackberries and plums, good acidity, fine tannins and a silky finish.
