Three Dark Horses Shiraz

You know what they say, never underestimate a dark horse. Trust us when we say this is a wine that’s well worth backing. This McLaren Vale Shiraz has become a massive hit with lovers of Aussie red over several years now and it’s damn easy to see why.

In the past six vintages this wine has won a Trophy, four Gold medals, three 95/100 critic ratings and the No.1 rated Best Buy Australian Shiraz in Cuisine. This latest 2022 release has a 5 Star review to its name too!

After making wine in Italy and France former Coriole winemaker Matt Broomhead returned to the McLaren Vale to kick off his own gig with Dad Alan and 94 year old Grandad Frank. They’re the Three Dark Horses, they’re seriously boutique and they’re producing some seriously good, seriously affordable wine.

This fruit comes from 20-50 year old vines,100% basket pressed (an expensive, labour intensive winery tool used to produce high quality fruit!), aged 12 months in oak. Dark berries and spice, soft, rich and plush. You’ll be seriously impressed. The smart money is on this horse yet again. Drink now or cellar for up to a decade from vintage.
