The aim of Plexus is to express a wide spectrum of fruit flavours whilst ensuring seamless integration of the contrasting characters of the three varietals. Shiraz provides rich dark fruits and mid-palate weight, whilst Grenache delivers a bright flavour spectrum of red fruits and spiced notes. Old vine Mourvèdre is integral to the blend, ensuring a good firm backbone of savoury tannin and a long finish.

Shiraz (49%), Grenache (35%) and Mourvèdre (16%).

Langtons Classified
8th Classification of Australian Wine, (one of only 100 Australian wines to make the classification) “John Duval’s Plexus Shiraz Grenache Mourvedre, with its interlaced parts and characters, is a retro-modern style borrowing from traditional winemaking techniques. These include partial barrel fermentation of shiraz parcels and maturation in new (10%) and seasoned French oak hogsheads and puncheons. Sourced primarily from mature vineyards (principally in the Tanunda, Light Pass and Ebenezer districts of the Barossa), this wine is exemplified by dark and red berry fruits, espresso notes, attractive volume and density. As the former winemaker of Penfolds Grange, Duval is a master of polished exactitude."
