Happs
Australia
A rare red blend from a lauded organic winery, aged to perfection and deliciously distinct
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Happs
East of Alice Red Blend
Made with grapes from 20-year-old vines at the Happs Estate, Australia’s highly regarded organic winery, this full-bodied wine is barrel-aged for 20 months in old French oak. With firm tannins and hints of blackberry and spice, it’s an intriguing blend of Grenache, Tinta Cao and Graciano with a distinctive character. Coming from “one of Australia’s least-known but best regions, [all] of Margaret River’s charms come to bear in this blended wine, dominated by 50 percent spicy, generous Grenache, a grape known for anchoring Rhône blends... At five years old, it even has a touch of leather and cedar, which good wines can develop with time,” says Ted Loos of Travel + Leisure.

WINE REGION:
Australia
The Land Down Under is famous for taking well-known European grapes and giving them a new personality. From bold, jammy Shiraz to creamy oak-tinged Chardonnay, herbaceous Sémillon to distinctively citrusy Riesling, when it comes to quality, Australian wine can be breathtaking. This is thanks to its variety of climates and terroirs. Australia is roughly the same size as the continental United States, with temperatures ranging from searingly hot to moderately cool. The best regions have warm days and cool nights, tempered by breezes from the Southern and Indian Oceans.
