Red wine | South Eastern Australia
Ahoy there, matey! Are you ready to embark on a daring flavour voyage? Then hoist the sails and set your course for 19 Crimes The Uprising, a rebellious red blend from the sun-soaked lands of South Eastern Australia. This isn't your grandmother's claret; this is a wine that's been roughed up, aged in rum barrels to deliver a taste as bold and unforgettable as the convicts who inspired it.
Imagine a tapestry woven with the rich, dark fruit notes of ripe blackberries and plums, kissed by the warmth of vanilla and the exotic whisper of spice. That's just the beginning. The rum barrel ageing adds layers of complexity, infusing the wine with hints of toasted oak, caramel, and a subtle, lingering sweetness that will leave you craving more.
This wine is a blend of Shiraz, Grenache, and Mataro, which complement each other perfectly. Shiraz brings the backbone of dark fruit, while Grenache adds a layer of spice and a hint of sweetness. Mataro contributes a touch of earthiness and structure, completing the picture.
19 Crimes The Uprising is perfect with grilled meats, barbecue, or hearty stews. Try it with a juicy steak, a rack of ribs, or a spicy chili. It's also a great match for strong cheeses or even dark chocolate.
This is a wine that tells a story, a wine that breaks the rules, a wine that's as unforgettable as the 19 crimes that could get you exiled to Australia. So, gather your mates, uncork a bottle of The Uprising, and let the adventure begin! It is the perfect accompaniment to a night filled with laughter, stories, and maybe just a little bit of rule-breaking. After all, a little rebellion never hurt anyone, especially when it tastes this good. So, why not embrace your inner convict and give 19 Crimes The Uprising a try? You might just find your new favourite wine. Cheers to a life less ordinary and to the freedom of flavour!
