Description

McLaren Vale (75%) Adelaide Hills (25%)
Cabernet Sauvignon (48%), Merlot (25%), Petit Verdot (21%)
Cabernet Franc (6%)

ABV 14.5%

this isn’t one of Chester’s crazy concoctions, but rather a traditional
combination of varieties renowned for their blending qualities.

The Name
‘Garagist’ is a French term used to describe producers in Bordeaux that make wine in their garage outside of the strict ‘Appellation Controlee’ system. d’Arenberg wines are all made in a small-batch processing, very hands-on way (or feet, as the reds are all foot-trod) as the ‘garagists’
do. Our reds are all made in the old galvanised garage/shed/winery, hence ‘Galvo’.

The nose is lifted, fragrant and inviting. Cassis and blueberry is evident without being dominant and allows the tomato vine, herb and leafy earthiness to play an equal part of what is a complex aroma. The palate is savoury, spicy and elegant. It’s deep and dark with rhubarb adding to the fruit spectrum and sitting alongside a subtle violet nuance and savoury elements of dark chocolate and dried herbs. There is no explosion of fruit, but rather an elegant and gradual building of complexity with persistent mineral, chalky tannins providing authoritative, balanced structure.

If cellared correctly this wine will drink well until 2022.

Owing largely to drought and a warm start to Summer, the 2007 vintage
commenced extremely early. These conditions caused short shoot length
and reduced berry and bunch sizes. In late January a 50mm downpour
reduced yields further, but was a welcome relief.Moderately warm weather followed to ripen fruit in low stress conditions that resulted in good
flavour concentration and excellent levels of natural acidity.
Pronounced tannins are common in 2007 McLaren Vale reds owing to drought. The foot treading techniques used at d’Arenberg allow greater control of extraction to ensure tannins are balanced.
