This famous wine region was originally spelled this way, named by South Australia's first surveyor-general who fought for Spain against the French at the 1811 battle. It's a juicy medium-bodied blend of Tempranillo, old-vine Garnacha and Graciano, showing good lift, energy and concentration of dark cherry, dried strawberry and sweet spice.
