- Background
"Single Suitcase" collection pays tribute to the many immigrants who arrived in Australia during the 1950s with just a single suitcase and dreams of building a better life.
Bringing more than just their dreams in hand, these immigrants carried their deep viticultural traditions and passionate love of table wine, profoundly shaping Australia's diverse wine landscape and the varietals we cherish today.
- Winemaking
Nicknamed Monte in Australia, it shares the richness and generosity of a Shiraz but with a distinctly Italian savoury twist. This is only our second release, made after the overwhelming demand for the first vintage, and it delivers the same plush fruit, smooth tannins and moreish finish that made it such a hit.
