Wine Summary Image

1838 was the year Walter Thomson, with wife Jane, arrived in Australia and established a winemaking tradition. Faithful to his approach, our estate grown parcels are carefully tended by our vignerons to create wines of great intensity.

Set in the northern range of the cool and picturesque Clare Valley, the high altitude provides finesse and delicate power to our mature vines.

Grown in our Clare Valley estate where Cabernet Sauvignon thrives, the above and beyond is Sangiovese; an Italian grape we’ve coaxed to trophy-winning levels in this vineyard. Then tickled with a touch of Shiraz. The mature vines coupled with innovative thinking offers a rich intensity that is delightfully different to the Clare’s classic varietal styles. The pushing of boundaries we’ve christened our “Super Clare” and we adore the result in its defiance. Ripe Plum, scorched almond and savoury cherry with plush French oak spice and silky tannins to cellar 8-10 years.

Winery Tasting Notes

COLOUR/AROMA: - Dark garnet red with ruby hue. Clove and plum blossom with scorched almond and porcini mushroom

PALATE: -Firm silky tannins provide the backbone to this commanding style. Ripe dark chocolate, savoury cherry and blackcurrant fruits are complexed with plush French oak spice and a nuttiness akin to pecan pie. Vegan Suitable

VARIETY: Cabernet Sauvignon 68%, Sangiovese 23% Shiraz 10%

WINEMAKING: Sourced from our estate vineyards in the northern ranges of the Clare Valley and vinified in small batches, the components were aged in French oak barriques for 1824 months. The resulting Super Clare blend is an opulent wine with persistence and length
