Berton Vineyard Winemakers Reserve Durif 2021
The Berton Vineyard Winemakers Reserve Durif is a red wine made from the Durif grape, a cross between Syrah and a little known grape variety called Peloursin and is sometimes known as Petite Sirah. This parcel of Durif has been chosen from a single vineyard, the ‘Foleys Corner Vineyard’, which overlooks Griffith in the Riverina, New South Wales. This fabulous Durif red wine displays intense aromas of violets, blackberry and subtle chocolate notes. Inky, dark fruit characters of blackberry are complemented by a touch of anise and smoky liquorice filling the concentrated palate. Integrated spicy oak and tight tannins add complexity and depth that persist through to a long flavoursome finish.
