Rusden is one of the most respected names in the Barossa Valley, which has built up a huge following in a relatively short period of time. Focussing on traditional Barossa varieties and blends, the limited production wines are quickly snapped up with each release.

This 2021 Rusden Driftsand GSM is another fantastic value Barossa blend of Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro. A medium-bodied, juicy, flavoursome Barossa red wine brimming with raspberry, cherry cola, and maraschino cherry flavours. Gentle spice and a subtle hint of oak round out a superb value Barossa red that provides plenty of enjoyment in the short to medium term.

“From low yields in a warm, dry vintage, this year’s release of Driftsand is a charm. Full spectrum of aromatics with red fruits, some florals and underlying spice, most notably anise. Soft, juicy palate shows the concentration of a warm vintage with red currants, hints of cherry and a spice laden finish. Silk like texture, soft, subtle, and so damn drinkable. A great release!”- Rusden Wines.
