Adelina's blend of Shiraz (68%) and Mataro (32%) was grown in the Springfarm sub-area of the Clare Valley, with the Mataro and a portion of the Shiraz fruit coming from the famed Aberfeldy Vineyard, plus a little Adelina Estate fruit. 60-70% of this wine comes from vines with an age of around 100 years! Delicious, mouth-filling dark fruit, flavours that last an age, rich in texture though refined to finish. A sophisticated rich South Australian red wine of extreme value.

Mike Bennie
From two vineyards, both organic grown, the home vineyard on the way to certification. Raised in concrete, then off to old barrels, the varieties alone until a careful blending session. A winner of a wine in the past, no doubt.
This has lots going for it. Rich perfume of dark berries, sweet earth, dried flowers, very aromatic but feels kind of savoury. The palate is the same, bloody and rich, hewn with sheets of grippy, grunty tannins, upfront whips away quickly, feels tight, the finish a cavalcade of tumbling tannin, gamey fruit, piquant, tactile spice and minerally stony qualities. Boom. That somewhat missing front palate might just be the go now, but we get something serious to finish. I like it, all up.
