Busby's Treaty
South Australia, Australia
A rich Australian Shiraz from two certified Masters of Wine
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Busby's Treaty
Shiraz
A robust Australian red from two certified Masters of Wine. Nine months in French oak barrels developed notes of smoke and cocoa balanced by fresh, vibrant fruit in this young Shiraz. Named in honor of James Busby, the father of Australian wines, the Shiraz is a bold, full bodied red that is a quintessential South Eastern Australian wine.
South Australia has warm days and cool nights which is closer to the weather in Napa than in the nearby Outback. The longer growing season means that grapes ripen slowly and evenly resulting in a more nuanced and robust final product. The Busby’s Treaty 2016 Shiraz is both of those things. It is complex with moderate acidity, and has a velvety mouthfeel that is a perfect complement to hearty cuisine; our favorite way to enjoy it is alongside a rich beef bolognese.

WINE REGION:
South Australia
From juicy, full-bodied Shiraz and bold Rhône-style blends to deliciously buttery, oak-touched Chardonnay and surprisingly elegant Rieslings, South Australia is renowned for its wide array of crowd-pleasing wines. The key is the state's diverse geography and climate. With hot, dry regions like Riverland and cool, coastal areas like the Adelaide Hills, winemakers have an incredible range of grapes and styles at their disposal. South Australia is responsible for more than half of Australia's total wine production and makes some of the country's most prominent wine labels. It is also home to world-famous regions like Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale and Clare Valley.

TASTING NOTES:
Blueberry
Blackberry
Caramel
Juicy and sweet in the mouth, this blend showcases notes of blueberry and lush blackberry alongside notes of smoky caramel and cocoa from the oak aging. Full bodied with moderate acidity, this blend has a velvety mouthfeel that is a perfect complement to hearty cuisine, and is especially delightful alongside a beef bolognese. Busby's Treaty is terrific to pair alongside savory foods, like grilled rib-eye steaks, and will also hold up to complex flavors like mature cheeses.
