Down Under Mix Up

Australia is renowned for her single varietal Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon but these grapes are often combined with other varieties. Far from being inferior, Australia’s blended wines offer a unique taste of the country. Beyond the classic Cab/Shiraz combos, explore traditional red and white Bordeaux blends, Rhône inspired threesomes of Grenache, Shiraz, Mourvèdre as well as the fashionable union of Shiraz/Viognier. This mingler is also sure to include some less traditional yet innovated combination of grapes.
