Description The Hewett and Colton families sailed from England to Adelaide in 1839. Charles Hewitt moved to the Oxenberry farm site in 1840. The fruit for this appealing Shiraz is from the site where Hewet and William Colton planted McLaren Vale’s first vines fed by a local freshwater spring. The Shiraz is beautifully crafted by McLaren Vale stalwarts the Scarpantoni brothers who back in 2007 won the highly prized Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy at the Royal Melbourne Wine Show. Blackberries plum a chocolatey texture with smooth tannins and a touch of savoury spice means this suits many dishes from herby lamb to tomato pasta.
