Summary: Plus & Minus is a contemporary range of wines developed to be richer in antioxidants, minus the alcohol. These zero alcohol wines have been hand-made without the use of any artificial sweeteners but do see the addition of grape skin extract (GSE) during the winemaking process.
This GSE is rich in naturally occurring antioxidants delivering more of those benefits that can already be found in red wine but without the alcohol. The Plus & Minus range of wines have been uniquely hand-crafted using only high-quality grapes from premium, dry-grown South Australian vineyards. This ensures the resultant wines remain vibrant and full-flavoured once the process of removing the alcohol has been completed.
Vineyards: Fruit sourced from vineyards in South Australia.
Vintage 2022: the 2022 vintage presented excellent growing conditions. The harvest was slightly later than usually starting on average 2 weeks later than the previous vintages. The temperatures were mild through the harvest months which produced elegant and aromatic reds with seamless balance.
Tasting Note: Classic Shiraz aromas highlighted by dark berries, hints of chocolate and vanilla with hints of oak. The palate delivers vibrant dark fruits, a touch of sweetness to fill out the mid-palate and a thin weave of tannins before ending with medium concentration. Pair it with a lasagne.
