A.T Shiraz on tour again

News update

For those of you who follow us on Instagram and Facebook you may remember a couple of years ago, Andrew and I took the A.T Shiraz for a trip to the Northern Territory.  After a break from travel in 2020, the A.T Shiraz will be back on tour in July and August this year.  Originally planning on taking it West, we are now unsure which direction we are going! Mystery A.T Shiraz tour! Follow our adventures on our socials to see where it pops up!

95 Halliday points

In addition to being a trophy winning wine we are also pretty chuffed that our 2018 AT Shiraz has been awarded 95 points by James Halliday and recently appeared in the Halliday Companion cellaring issue.  
Our 2019 A.T. Shiraz is shaping up to be a cracker too!
