Clever chap, Andrew Caillard. He's a master of wine, auctioneer, author and all-round wine boffin. He not only made this lovely wine in conjunction with
family members, he also painted the pretty picture for the label. I tasted this
alongside several far more expensive premium reds and it shone with its super
dark fruit complexity. “Exquisite” was my one word tasting note. It is a
triumph from a very difficult vintage in the Barossa; spicy, supple, briary, tangy
and very drinkable. One to seek out - and a terrific partner for a traditional roast lamb en croute. $44. www.caillardwine.com.
