Wine:
A blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, the 2018 Red Keyneton Euphonium is a remarkable achievement from an exceptional vintage—warm yet balanced, perfectly capturing the wine’s true character. This subtle mix of power, concentration, and indulgence results in a beautifully balanced wine with notes of red and black fruits, courtesy of Syrah vines over 50 years old from Eden and Barossa Valley.
