Expert Reviews

93 Points - Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

Beautifully fruited and fragrant, the bouquet shows blackberry, sweet cherry, mixed spice and vanillin oak characters, leading to a succulent palate that's plump and weighty. Generously textured with well-balanced tannins, offering terrific drinking. At its best: now to 2034 93 Points | 5 Stars *Outstanding quality showing varietal purity and exemplifying regional type.

Winery Tasting Notes

Colour

Dark ruby red.

Bouquet

Aromatic dark berries and black cherry fruits sit alongside subtle notes of aniseed, licorice root and spicy, smoky oak notes. This is a brightly attractive wine that shines with the immediate appeal of youth.

Palate

That darkest of black cherry fruits continues in the mouth, sitting comfortably alongside notes of tart jam and berry coulis dark chocolate and white pepper. The tannins are gently drying and persist on the finish, carrying those primary fruit flavours into the back palate. While restrained in the mouth, held in check by balancing natural acid and those integrated tannins, there is a moreish appeal to the dark fruit and soft oak spice that indicates the promise of great things to come for this wine…if you can leave it alone long enough!

Winery Profile

Claymore Wines, situated in the beautiful Clare Valley in South Australia, began in 1997 with small volumes of Grenache and Riesling, and has now grown to almost 15,000 cases per year across a highly awarded range of wines.

We draw fruit from our five premium estate owned vineyards at Penwortham (the backbone of our red wine production) and Watervale (home to our Joshua Tree vineyard). These sites have been specifically chosen for their suitability for our staple varieties – Shiraz, Riesling, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Our labelling is inspired by some of the great music of modern time - from rock, punk and folk. Our wines are about bringing together great passions to create the ultimate experience. We pride ourselves on meticulous winemaking using only the best fruit, but when it comes to enjoying a glass we don't take ourselves too seriously! So turn up the volume on a soundtrack of your choice, crack a bottle with friends, and relax.
