From the renowned John Duval Wines in Barossa Valley, Australia, the Plexus SGM 2017 is a sophisticated blend of 50% Shiraz, 30% Grenache, and 20% Mourvèdre. Sourced from old vines on sandy and clay soils in Marananga and Lyndoch, it’s hand-harvested and fermented in stainless steel. Aged 15 months in French oak hogsheads, it offers a deep ruby hue and vibrant complexity.

The nose reveals blackberry, plum, and red cherry, with hints of black pepper, graphite, and spice. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and balanced, with vibrant acidity, firm tannins, and flavors of dark fruit, mocha, and a long, mineral finish.

Awards and Accolades
