REGION: Granite Belt, Queensland.

COLOUR: Deep plum red with hints of violet.

VARIETAL: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Montepulciano.

TASTING NOTES: A rich, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon based blend, supported by plump Merlot and vibrant fruit-driven Montepulciano. Inky blackberry and dark plum are intertwined with hints of dark chocolate, warm spice and subtle vanilla oak.

WINEMAKING COMMENTS: A tribute to Sirromet co-founder Lurleen Morris, wife of Terry Morris, the journey of this special reserve wine began in 2008, with the first Vintage being made in 2009. Crafted only in exceptional years, this release marks the fifth Vintage of Assemblage. Blessed with near-perfect growing conditions, the 2023 season was long and mild, allowing the fruit to ripen slowly and develop intense fruit characters, texture and complexity.

FOOD MATCHING: Enjoy with slow-roasted lamb shoulder with a baked ratatouille and smoky eggplant jam.
