Moda Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2022 1500mL

The Moda's story began in a London wine bar, 1984.

I was there as a young winemaker on my first ever overseas trip. I was out to taste the great wines of the world.

Hoping to impress me, the bar's sommelier poured an Italian wine that I had never heard of - Amarone. 

He explained that Amarone was a winemaking method. It's where grapes are air-dried before crushing to intensify flavours.

The power and opulence of that red wine blew me away. This was a style I had to master.

Today, I make the Moda by drying our best McLaren Vale Cabernet and Merlot grapes in the Amarone style.

The resulting wine gives an intense bouquet of blackcurrant, raisin and cigar-box. It tastes of rich, lush blueberry wrapped in fine dark cocoa.

We've bottled a small amount of our precious Moda in 1500mL magnums, perfect for long-term ageing and special occasions with family and friends.
