Petit Verdot
In the 1800s Goolwa was the most important river port in South Australia linked by rail to Port Elliot, where sailing ships unloaded ballast stone to refill their holds with wool and grain for their return trip to England. Buildings on Ballast Stone Estate Vineyards are made from this stone.
Spicy cherries, violets and earthy. Usually seen in cabernet based blends due to its fine tannic structure. As a stand alone variety, this wine is powerful and rich, with a very long cellaring potential.
