Secrets Cabernet Sauvignon/Shiraz Blend 2019 Langhorne Creek Secrets Killibinbin

Brothers in Arms is very much a family concern.

As the owners, Guy & Liz Adams are involved in all aspects of the business on a daily basis & it is not surprising really as they live on the vineyard, only 2 minutes down the road to the winery.

The homestead is the hub of everything as well as being the domain of their 2 children, Myles & Emily.

They are the 6th Generation to live at Metala and are the inspiration for many things, including the No.6 label.

“As we continue to be the custodians of the Metala property our vision moving forward is to respect the lessons learned in the past while seeking out innovative approaches to our future ” said Guy & Liz.

The most notable thing about Langhorne Creek is the ability to grow premium quality grapes with a minimal amount of fuss.

The climate is warm enough that the winemakers don’t have to endure some of the cool climate headaches such as devastating frosts, labour intensive canopy management or inclement weather associated with late harvest dates.

This blend shows dark fruit aromas with a pretty hint of plum and violets.

The palate is generous, juicy with fine, velvety Petit Verdot tannins providing a delicious lingering finish.

A great food wine.
