This is a rich, full-bodied wine with intense flavours of ripe red berry fruit, violets as well as roasted coffee beans and dark chocolate. The wine is well balanced with complex, well-integrated tannins providing the palate with an intense, persistent length.
Jaraman wines are created from the fusion of two exceptional parcels of fruit from two iconic Australian wine regions. The result is a single variety wine which is multi-dimensional, highlighting and enhancing the nuances of both terroirs. This wine is a combination of 55% Clare Valley with 45% McLaren Vale fruit.

About Wakefield Wines
Wakefield is a third generation family wine business and was founded in 1969 by Bill Taylor who was inspired by his love for the red wines of Bordeauxs Medoc region. He was drawn to South Australias Clare Valley with the attraction of the red-brown loam over limestone soils (also known as Terra Rossa) and the Clare Valleys cool climate which were known to be ideal for the cultivation of Cabernet Sauvignon vines. Today Wakefield is headed up by Mitchell Taylor whose philosophy blends an old world estate mind set with new world winemaking innovation; coupled with an almost fanatical attention to detail and obsession with quality. This results in wines of tremendous quality and style that are made with respect for the companys family heritage. Wakefield was recently acclaimed as the most Awarded Winery in the World by The World Association of Wine Writers and Journalists (WAWWJ).
