The Barossa Valley is not only a great place to grow grapes, but it’s been home to Gomersal Wines since day one. So having spent years building a rich history making literally tonnes of great wines, our team decided it was time to step outside our comfort zone and try something Modern.

In collaboration with local distiller Lachie Gunner, we have created a classic Modern Australian Gin, with a recipe including Pepperberry, Coriander Seed, Strawberry Gum and Juniper. We only produced 200 bottles, so what are you waiting for – it’s time to raise a glass to friends and great memories.

SERVING SUGGESTION:
- 1/3 VINGIN Modern Australia
- 2/3 High Quality Tonic Water

Serve over ice, garnish with fresh strawberries.

Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro from our low yielding Barossa Valley vineyard were fermented separately and then matured in a combination of new and seasoned French and American oak hogsheads for 18 months to add complexity. Careful blending of the three varieties has produced a wine with a wonderful balance of flavour and structure.

Lifted aromas of raspberry, cherry and baking spice combine with a palate of dark chocolate, white pepper and fine tannins, to produce a full flavoured wine with excellent length.

FOOD SUGGESTION: One for me, one for you - best served in Mulled Wine (click for recipe).

CELLARING: Drinks well now and will reward patient cellaring for 5 to 7 years

SERVING TEMPERATURE: 16-18 ̊C

GRAPE VARIETY: 47% Grenache, 43% Shiraz, 10% Mataro

ALCOHOL: 14.8%

“Deepish red with a tint of purple, the bouquet peppery as well as slightly jammy, the palate full-bodied and quite intense, but also nicely tailored and elegant. Attractively balanced between fruit and savoury notes. The aftertaste is drying and cleansing. Terrific value.” ~ Huon Hooke, The Real Review
