The Wild Ride 2022
$22.00
Following the success of our iconic “The Ball Buster”, we were looking to add to our range. Bruno had been working on a GSM blend and it wasn’t coming together. Frustrated, Bruno jumped on his Ducati motorcycle to go on one of his road trips to get out and see things from a different perspective. Great for all concerned as he came home from his “Wild Ride” with a new blend in mind, a SGM of Shiraz , Grenache and Mataro. This baby took a long time to make as he unraveled what he was meant to find!
There is a following of people who prefer this wine for its softer style than “The Ball Buster”. Grab a bottle and enjoy your own ride while reading the humour of the back label
