Nardone Baker scores another medal

ANOTHER wine from the Nardone Baker family has won a major prize in an international competition. Our late release, Nardone Baker The Wara Manta Reserve 2001 Shiraz has scored a Silver medal at the prestigious Decanter World Wine Awards in London.

Just like its companion product, the 2002 Shiraz, it has won two international medals. Its previous medal was a Bronze at the 2005 London International Wine Show.

During maturation, this award-winning wine was nurtured in a combination of new and two year old American Oak. It displays ripe berry and spice notes, complemented by vanilla oak Characters. The palate is medium bodied, leading to a clean, balanced tannin finish.

You can find out more about this wine by downloading its tasting notes from our wine notes section.

We have already received abundant registrations of interest for allocations of the 2001 reserve from our partners around the world. However, due to the low volume of this vintage we can only allocate limited quantities to each country.

To our faithful band of wine lovers, if you would like to snare some, we suggest you contact your local bottle shop/distributor soon to register your interest.
