Nestled in McLaren Vale’s renowned Blewitt Springs, Cape Barren Wines produces expressive wines that showcase the character of this distinctive South Australian terroir. The winery takes its name from the magnificent Cape Barren geese that return to the region each summer following harvest to feed on grain and grape seeds—a welcome sight for a species that was once nearly extinct. Established in 1999, the winery itself may be relatively young, but its vineyards are anything but, with some vines exceeding 100 years of age! The brand began to truly establish its identity when viticulturist Tom Adams and winemaker Rob Dundon took the reins in ’09, bringing a wealth of combined experience and a strong focus on expressing the character of these exceptional old vines.

The GSM is bright and inviting, with aromas of raspberry, plum and blackberry layered with subtle spice. The palate is plush and smooth, driven by vibrant fruit and a gentle savoury spice, while the Shiraz adds richness and depth. A touch of oak brings chocolatey complexity, with supple, lingering tannins rounding out the finish.
