In 2017, Dean Hewitson was offered to contract a twenty-year old Shiraz vineyard on a gentle slope opposite the church at Rowland Flat in the southern end of of the Barossa. Naturally he pounced and Lulu was born!
Previously exported to the USA and now back in its rightful home, this broad-brushed, concentrated and slightly tarry red is very ripe and concentrated with a big personality. Plenty of flavour at this price.
