WINE DESCRIPTION

Tim Smith Mataro-Grenache-Shiraz is a medium-bodied red wine produced by Tim Smith, a renowned winemaker from the Barossa Valley in South Australia. The wine is a blend of three grape varieties, Mataro, Grenache, and Shiraz, sourced from select vineyards in the Barossa Valley. The vineyards are known for their unique terroir, which imparts distinct flavors and aromas to the wine. The winemaking process involves careful selection of grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in used oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a medium-bodied red with a ruby color, intense aromas of dark fruit, spice, and chocolate, and a long, smooth finish. It is a perfect wine to pair with grilled meats, hearty stews, and aged cheeses.
