ABOUT
With fruit sourced from some of the most exceptional, yet difficult to access sites in South and Western Australia, our wines are the key to experience the spoils of these elusive vineyards.
Clandestine Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 750mL
ORIGIN: SA, Australia
TYPE: Cabernet Sauvignon
TASTING NOTES
A brooding palate of blackcurrant, plums, chocolate and mocha flavours jostle for position, while a generous fruit ball forms in the mid-palate. Quality oak and time ensure long, soft and integrated tannin structure, wrapped in firm acidity – giving this Cabernet enhanced texture and complexity. Pair with slow-roasted lamb, BBQ’s and firm cheeses.
Colour – Dark purple
Aroma – Mint, cedar oak.
Palate – Blackcurrant, plums, chocolate.
Clandestine Chardonnay 2022 750mL
ORIGIN: SA, Australia
TYPE: Chardonnay
TASTING NOTES
The chardonnay bouquet is an enticing mix of flintstone, cashew and citrus, this follows onto the palate with grapefruit intensity and depth of flavour, held in check by tightly wound acidity. The oak plays its part in a supporting role, which allows for a long clean and delicious finish. This style of Chardonnay pairs well with a variety of flavours; from the ocean to the land – but roast chicken with herbed potatoes and fresh garden salad is our ‘go-to’.
Colour – Bright light green.
Aroma – Flintstone, cashew and citrus.
Palate – Grapefruit intensity.
Clandestine Shiraz 2021 750mL
ORIGIN: SA, Australia
TYPE: Shiraz
TASTING NOTES
Cherries and red fruits collide across the palate with earthy, graphite notes giving added texture and interest. Sweet and savoury at the same time, the wine completes its palate journey with white pepper notes & fruit generosity while the older oak lends a rounded, soft, elegant and juicy long finish. Pair with winter braises, slow-cooked and/or smoked meats (American style brisket or short ribs), or northern Italian cuisine.
Colour – Bright purple.
Aroma – Floral, spices, oak.
Palate – Peppery, fruity, old oak.

TYPE: Mourvèdre Rosé 2022
