The 2006 vintage of Songlines McLaren Vale Shiraz has just been released to the Australian wine trade and follows the sell-out 2004 and 2005 vintages.
Only the third vintage to be released in Australia, its youthful image does not do justice to the commitment and experience behind this spectacular, individual, hand crafted wine.
The winemakers behind Songlines are David Fatches and John Duval, two of Australia’s most highly regarded makers of wine with a combined 55 year of International wine making experience. David’s wines have consistently cleaned-up at Wine Shows and John is one of only four men to have been trusted to make Penfold’s Grange.
As these two Australian men sat with friend and business partner Martin Krajewski in his French Chateau – the world renowned winery, Chateau de Sours - a truly international dream was formed; to carefully seek out and select the highest quality fruit in Australia and produce a powerful wine with real longevity that embraces all of the greatest secrets of ‘Old World’ winemaking with an innovative and intoxicating Australian personality.
