"Grown on the family farm near the village of Eldorado on decomposed red granite buckshot soil. This narrow seam of soil has been washed down from the nearby Beechworth hills by the Reedy Creek over millions of years. Eldorado shares many climatic similarities with Sicily, the homeland of the Nero d’Avola grape.

"It has been 13 years since we decided that Nero d’Avola would be a good fit for our unique soil and climate at Eldorado. Along the way through a combination of collaboration with other pioneers of the variety in Australia and those who have had generations of experience with the variety in its native Sicily we have learnt a lot about growing this variety well." Eldorado Road

"There is a joy here to be explored, one that comes with time and a decent decant. Unfined and left to rest on gross lees to build texture in barrel, the winemaker asks you to let the air – and the sunshine – in. Watch a beauty unfurl in ferrous earth, bramble, dark cherry, purple plums, a wealth of lively spices and dark chocolate. The effect is heightened by a textural field of savoury tannins. This is nero as you rarely see it. So good." 95pts | Jeni Port | Halliday Wine Companion
