The Gander represents the pinnacle of our winemaking aspirations.  A grand marque Barossa Valley Shiraz in the classic mode, crafted from the highest classification of fruit grown in our estate vineyards.

Colour: Garnet verging on ebony, with deep dark core with ruby rim.

Aroma: Alluring bouquet of violets, Black cherry, blueberry compote, black plums and Christmas spices. With further glass swirling delicate wafts of cocoa, coffee bean and smoky bacon, complimented with subtle French oak cedar spice and leather.

Palate: Rich savoury palate with black plum, black currant, olive tapenade flavours. Spicy new French oak nuances of cedar, vanilla and coffee grains. Dusty mouth-coating tannins envelope the fruit core, providing length and definition. 

Enjoy with sticky red vinegar ribs or dry aged Ribeye steak.

The Gander Reserve will continue to evolve rewarding the owner with exceptional drinking over the next 20-25 years.
