Our first ever Vintage of El Desperado was 2011, and will always be known in Australian wine history as the vintage from hell, as many vineyards succumb to the wet summer. For the Pawn, we sacrificed making our full range of wines that year to create a brand new style wine. Although we did not set out to make the El Desperado before that vintage, when you taste this wine, by hell you will be glad we did.
This red blend This wine was made from grapes sourced from our Macclesfield vineyard. A blend of 4 varieties, we have taken the finest characteristics of each, to craft a medium bodied wine that is a mouth filling textural flavour bomb, which will accompany any food at any occasion.
The Sangiovese brings lifted aromatics of cherry cola and raspberry, with fine tannins on the palate. Tempranillo adds a perfumed lift and spicy richness, the Shiraz delivering deep colour, berry fruits, pepper and velvety tannins and the Montepulciano adds mind boggling colour and the ability to say a word that sounds sexy.
