Chaffey Bros, La Conquista!

The Chaffey Bros call themselves part perfumers, part historians and part mad scientists and in this blend you can see why! This wine is a delicious blend of Tempranillo, Graciano and Garnacha which is also the typical blend of varieties found in the wines of Rioja in Spain. Imbibe this with some great homemade pizza or tapas style foods.

La Conquista! is the vinous rematch of the 1811 Battle at Barrosa Ridge where Spain fought off attacking French forces. La Conquista! pitches Tempranillo and Graciano on the attack, ruffling feathers amongst the Barossa Old Guard varieties of French descent. The original Spanish spelling of Barrosa honours the original name given to our Barossa Valley by Colonel Light who fought in the 1811 battle. These ozzies certainly have a way in telling a story.

A dark yet luminous crimson colour hints at the rich semi-savoury dark cherry and cola palate that finishes with a hint of red cherry juiciness.
