AUSTRALIA
Australia has taken the wine world by storm in the last thirty years with well-made, varietally labelled wines appealing to consumers across the world. Full-throttled, assertive Shiraz put Australia firmly on the radar of wine lovers.

Armit Wines is proud to be working with Dowie Doole, a producer that perfectly incarnates Australia’s modern approach to wine. Not to be fooled by their fun, approachable range, their wines are precise and expressive. Experimenting with different grape varieties, their wines are made to be enjoyed and shared!

TASTING NOTES
The blend consists of 95% Tempranillo from 40-year-old vines in Las Cuevas, El Palo and Las Monjas in Rodezno, complemented with 5% Graciano from the Montecillo estate in Fuenmayor.

TASTING NOTES
Peace of Eden comes from two low-yielding vineyards on the Eastern facing slopes of the Barossa Ranges.
