"Ben Haines is part of a new generation of winemakers in Australia. In a country that has always pushed the viticultural envelope Ben,s wines continue this tradition with a new focus: sense of place. Or as he puts it 'magic dirt. Each grape in this unique red blend is vinified differently to express its distinct characteristics and terroir. It has notes of juicy berries, saline, and a touch of cinnamon on the nose. On the palate, the concentrated fruit notes are lifted by great acidity."
