Located in the Yarra Valley, 65 kilometres northeast of Melbourne, the thousand candles farm is a historic, sprawling property that stretches over 1100 acres. It comprises of vineyards, cattle pastures, and native bush.

Fermented with 50% whole bunches and aged in new (8%) and older French barriques. A medium ruby red. Harmonious and complex on the nose with its aromas of red and black fruits, freshly grated cinnamon, incense and flowers. Just as well balanced on the palate which has both excellent depth and structure. The tannins are chiselled and long, as is the wine. A little patience will be required, and rewarded.
