(Release Date: December 2011) California brings together the best of vine and sea. Surfing and wine are essential elements of Californian culture. This wine blends together three fun loving varietals captured in famous Californian surfing lingo: “Hang Ten”.

(Release Date: January 2012) It is difficult to envision Spain’s culture without their famous icon – the bull or ‘Toro’ as it is known in Spanish. A Toro is bold, aggressive and intense - a fitting name for this unforgettable and powerful wine. Red ripe fruits with a little bit of anise, hay/straw, dried prune, cherries and blackcurrant entice the nose. Coffee with black pepper or dried leaves are layered with the sweetness of fresh cherries and strawberries.
(Release Date: February 2012) A significant expression of Argentine culture, the tango is smooth, sexy and romantic. The Argentine people have gained global attention for their flawless tango and recently received international praise for perfecting their wines. It is their love for both that has inspired our wine ‘Tango’. Rich flavours of ripened cherries and dried prunes carry throughout. The dark notes present a hint of chocolate or coffee. Aromas of eucalyptus, violets, black cherry and black currants entice the nose while the sweet ripe apple finish will have you wanting more especially if you like a blend of French and American oak chips. This red includes GenuWine Dried Merlot Grape Skins.Oak: 4 ~ Body: 4 ~ Sweetness: 0
