Will the jester dance a jig, twiddle his violin or take a swipe with his bow. Is it the hourglass look or time for a paunchy belly – you choose. It’s all part of the game – the wine game, ‘vinum vinatus’ … or in Aussie parlance ‘Vin’atus’.

What’s not up for question is the wine – a luscious, big spicy glassful of dark cherry fruit and smoky, toasty length. The grapes may be Spanish starlets, but the wine is 100% pure Aussie.
