Tyrrell's Fifth Generation
Cabernet Shiraz
Vibrant plum red in colour; the nose is appealing with sweet berry fruit, and hints of earth and spice. Designed for its softness and ‘immediate drinkability’, the palate is quite full flavoured, with spicy peppery overtones from the Shiraz, and blackcurrant flavours from the Cabernet. Medium weight tannins balance the acid resulting in a smooth, pleasant finish.
An easy-drinking red wine which matches well with beef or roast lamb, whilst also suitable with poultry or game bird dishes.

"The quality and consistency of the wines is, quite literally, awesome… No other winery has such a five glass coverage across so many varietal wines."
Winery of the Year, James Halliday 2009 Australian Wine Companion
Rich, vibrant garnet in colour, this wine displays full blackcurrant aromas with hints of a light leafiness balanced out by fine French oak on the bouquet. The palate is fruit driven with a soft texture. The fine tannin, fruit and oak flavours provide a wine of elegant structure whilst maintaining flavour intensity and richness. Enjoy with roasted quails, Chinese roasted duck, or barbequed lamb with garlic and rosemary. |
Pale straw with a green hue, this wine displays aromas of melon, white peach and a touch of struck match complexity, balanced with gentle French oak. The palate is full flavoured, with initial sweet fruit coupled with an abundance of melon, toasted hazelnuts and a touch of marmalade. The wine is beautifully balanced by crisp acidity and fine oak. Enjoy with wood-fired pizza, grilled scallops, or baked whole snapper. |
Vibrant and youthful magenta in colour with light pink hues, this wine displays fresh raspberry and red currant fruits on the nose, with wonderfully floral violet notes. The palate is refreshing and juicy with fresh fruit flavours triumphing on a palate that finishes crisp and dry. Enjoy with mild beef curry, Thai style chicken or simply on its own. |
