Another Rockford knock-out wine! The blend is 55-45 with Shiraz at the forefront, but the Cabernet imparts a dusty, minty note with a lingering finish, buffered by plenty of ripe cherry flavours from the Shiraz. Like all of the Rockford wines, there's a delicacy to the style, with no excessive extraction, alcohol or harsh tannins. Drink: 2021 - 2034
750 mlThis is a wine with awesome balance and beautiful, pure plum fruit on the palate. The bouquet shows soft red plum and pine needles and we are fans of this deep red wine with a flavour that is large and in charge! A beautiful velvety feel and a great sense of freshness and lift too. Pair this easily with any slow-braised beef dish.

This Tawny Port-style fortified wine hails from the Barossa Valley of Australia. Produced by Rockford Winery, it takes its name from an old Paddle Steamer named Marion. The wine itself is aged in small oak casks for an average of 15 years before bottling. Rockford is arguably the most sought-after producer from the Barossa Valley, and their wines have a large cult following.
From The Producer
"The PS Marion Tawny is released as part of our long-term support of the Paddle Steamer Marion, built in 1897 and now moored in Mannum. Every sip of this wine helps put steam back into the boiler of one of the finest ships that ever plied the waters of the magnificent Murray River."

Rockford Wines feature high-quality traditional wines made from some of the best old Barossa vineyards. The winery and cellar door sales are part of a paved courtyard surrounded by stone buildings dating back to the early settlement of Krondorf. Founder and winemaker Robert O'Callaghan is a legend among Aussie winemakers and his wines have had a profound influence on winemaking philosophy and wine style in the Barossa. In addition to the small home vineyard, Rockford works in partnership with several independent wine growers around the Barossa, with vineyards in Kalimna, Ebenezer, Moppa Springs, the Eden Valley and central Barossa. This gives Rockford a wide variety of soil types, mesoclimates and altitudes for its grapes. Many of the vines are planted on their own rootstocks and range between 60–100 years old, giving intense, concentrated grapes that translate into the wines. Winemaking is largely done using traditional methods such as basket presses, open-topped concrete fermenters and a 1880s Bagshaw (grape) crusher that was found on site when O'Callaghan purchased the property in the 1970s. This Shiraz is built for the long haul, give it a good decant if you want to drink it now.
