The Taylors still refer to their original vineyard property as
Promised Land, due to the fulfilled promise of its rich fertile soils.

Whether relaxing at home or dining out, Promised Land can be enjoyed immediately upon release and is the perfect wine for every occasion.
The Taylor holdings in Valley Clare Valley were once the bed of an ancient inland sea that left behind rich, fertile, Terra rossa soils, ideal for the nurture of robust vines and flavoursome grapes. Promised Land are crafted to be stylish, fun and always great value. Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon are harvested from good vineyards. Parcels are fermented at warm temperatures in controlled fermentation vessels to capture and retain the essential varietal characters. After pressing, the separate components are treated to partial malolactic and oak maturation, before being brought together for assemblage into the final Shiraz Cabernet wine. Alcohol 13.5%
TASTING NOTESDeep red with vibrant purple tinges. Enticing fruit aromas of ripe plum, cassis and a hint of licorice along with subtle chocolate and spice from the oak. A balanced medium bodied wine with a lively palate of juicy red berries, plum and cassis, supported by a soft, supple mouthfeel and silky smooth tannins. The quintessential Australian claret style, fulfilling its promise alongside braises, barbeques and juicy meats.
