McPherson The Full Fifteen 2018

South Eastern Australia

Andrew McPherson’s aim with The Full Fifteen has always been to create a huge, black red that’s velvet smooth and immensely drinkable from day one. It delivers every vintage. So rich and fruit packed, in fact, it’s like two bottles crammed into one.

Australia’s answer to Big Reds like El Bombero or XV du Président, The Full Fifteen is a powerful customer favourite boasting pages of 5-Star reviews online. Punnets of strawberry, blackberry and raspberry flavour are miraculously shoehorned into a standard size bottle, while ageing in American oak adds a spicy, toasty finishing touch. ‘Big Mac’ McPherson grew up in the world of wine, tutored by his father Jock, who had established a winery in the Hunter Valley. Andrew went on to set up wineries at home and abroad and work for some top names in Australia. These days he crafts characterful wines by himself at great value prices. The Full Fifteen is perfect with roast beef or lamb and a wonderful companion to barbecues and winter casseroles.
