Jacobs Creek Double Barrel Shiraz Cab 2022

Jacob's Creek Double Barrel Shiraz Cabernet takes a traditional South Australian Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon blend from the Limestone Coast and finishes it in aged whisky barrels for extra depth. The result is a complex, generous red: toffee, crème caramel and honeycomb aromas mingle with cedar and nutmeg spice, while the palate layers dark chocolate from the Shiraz with rich cassis from the Cabernet, rounded out by waffle-cone vanilla and silky, mouth-filling tannins. It's a bold, warming style built for hearty food - think beef ribs slow-roasted over coals or a marinated lamb off the barbecue. A distinctive twist on a familiar blend.

What the winery says:
A powerful and complex wine thanks to the innovative use of whisky barrels as part of the finishing, giving a subtle twist to a traditional Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon blend that showcases premium fruit from the Limestone Coast. A complex nose of toffee, crème caramel and honeycomb is enhanced by cedar and nutmeg spice. The dark chocolate of the Shiraz is joined by rich cassis from the Cabernet Sauvignon, with waffle-cone vanilla and silky, mouth-filling tannins on the finish.
