About This Wine

Route du Van

Shiraz-Cabernet

In addition to being recognized for both quality and value by Wine & Spirits, this juicy blend is rated a Top Value Australian Red by Wine Spectator. With cherry and exotic spice flavors, as well as a touch of mocha, it’s a flavorful but light wine with a smooth finish that leaves plenty of room for food.

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.
