The Great Australian Red, an important Australian wine challenge, awarded this Shiraz Cabernet blend 2 trophies! Spice Trader won The Get Wines Direct Trophy for The Best Wine Under $20 and The Amcor Closures Stelvin Trophy for The Best Shiraz-Dominant Blend. The Great Australian Red is a competition created by Australia’s Tyson Stelzer and the U.K.’s Matthew Jukes to showcase the best of Australia’s classic Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon blends.
This is our second vintage of Spice Trader. Just as the spice traders of old, we invest our time and effort and risk all in search of those exotic flavours. We join you in the hunt for those elusive spices that fascinate our palates and capture our imaginations. Wine should be an adventure.
This is an intense glass of juicy and delicious red. A burst of dark primary fruit hits the palate with a compote of blueberries, blackberries and currants. These powerful fruit notes can engulf the uninitiated, but waves of spice, fresh spearmint and dried herbs can be discovered by seasoned flavour explorers.
