Black Duck Durif 2016
New South Wales
Loading...
With Black Duck Durif, Sam Trimboli set out to make a barrel aged big red to knock the spots off every other Durif in our range. This is the mighty Duck’s fourth vintage – and it’s as bold, rich and spicy as ever. Real ‘wow in a glass’ stuff!
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

The Wine
Many customers will know of Sam Trimboli from his days at Warburn Estate, where he collected hundreds of awards for his now legendary winemaking skills. During that time he developed an obsession for the somewhat obscure Durif, a “stunning little powerhouse grape that develops astounding complexity”, as he describes it. The Durif grapes for this wine come from a small vineyard that Sam helped establish in the 1980s and is now at peak maturity. A little Barossa Merlot brings extra complexity and ripe plum flavour, while a dash of old-vine Shiraz adds some spicy raspberry character. Matured in American oak, the Black Duck is full bodied and smooth with layers of spicy, fruity flavour. Perfect with char grilled steak and strong cheeses.
