Eldorado Road Quasimodo Nero d'Avola Durif Shiraz 2022

Eldorado Road Quasimodo Nero d'Avola Durif Shiraz 2022"Shout it from the rooftops Eldorado Road, as a label, should be much more famous. The wines are too interesting, too keen, too complex to be 'just another Victorian producer'." Andrew Graham Eldorado Road is run by Paul Dahlenburg (Bear), the winemaker at Baileys of Glenrowan, and his wife Lauretta. They are fiercely loyal to North East Victoria and produce a superb portfolio of wines from vineyards in Eldorado, Beechworth, Glenrowan and Rutherglen.

but also balance and drinkability

"Good deep colour
