Jacob’s Creek expands Double Barrel range

Wine brand, Jacob's Creek is adding a third variant to its Double Barrel range.

The new Double Barrel Shiraz Cabernet 2012 is crafted from fruit from the Limestone Coast of South Australia, an area which encompasses Coonawarra and Padthaway.

The Shiraz Cabernet is matured in traditional oak casks before being finished in aged whisky barrels, marking the Double Barrel range's point of difference.

"Blending Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon seamlessly is part of the very DNA of Jacob's Creek winemaking. Together they create a gorgeous blend which delivers flavour and body right across the palate, from beginning to end," said Jacob's Creek chief winemaker, Bernard Hickin.

"The finishing time in whisky barrels perfectly integrates this Shiraz Cabernet blend and adds the signature depth and smoothness of our unique Double Barrel process, perfectly complimenting the existing range."

Other Double Barrel products include a Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 and a Barossa Shiraz 2013.
