Téssera The Good Oil Cabernet Shiraz Blend

2021 | McLaren Vale | Blend

Description

Téssera The Good Oil Cabernet/Shiraz Blend 2021 is a delicious throwback to bold Aussie winemaking, bursting with personality.

This 50/50 blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon is a love letter to traditional craftsmanship, featuring basket-pressed and open-fermented grapes aged for 20 months in American Oak barrels.

The result? Earthy notes of roasted capsicum, dark cherry, and leather, perfectly balanced with fruit cake, blackberry, and a touch of Christmas spice on the palate.

Named after the family legend Grandad Len, who always swore by “The Good Oil” to cure whatever ailed him, this wine is as robust as it is charming. It’s the perfect pairing for a big plate of barbecued Greek lamb and tzatziki, or just as good with a group of friends reminiscing over a bottle (or two). Grab your glass, and let the good times—and “The Good Oil”—flow!
