The Grenache components are sourced from up to five different vineyards across the Barossa Valley, all aged between 60 and 80 years old. The shiraz component is from the Eden Valley giving dried herb aroma and the Mataro is sourced from a 60 year old block in Nuriootpa on sandy soils for spice and tannin.
