WINE DESCRIPTION

Clarendon Hills Brookman Syrah is a premium wine produced by Clarendon Hills, a renowned winery in the McLaren Vale appellation of South Australia. The Brookman vineyard, where the grapes are sourced, is known for its unique soil composition and ideal growing conditions, resulting in grapes with intense flavors and aromas. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in French oak barrels. The resulting wine is a full-bodied Syrah with rich flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of smokiness. Its velvety tannins and long finish make it a perfect pairing for hearty meat dishes or aged cheeses.
