In March 2002 the DiGiorgio Family became the proud owners of the second oldest winery in Coonawarra. This winery had been known since the early 1950’s as ‘Rouge Homme’ and holds enormous importance within the ‘winescape’ of Australia.
Being frank, this wine is made to be enjoyed with the best of food, family and friends. The finest red varieties of the estate have been blended to create a complex and alluring wine, packed with dark fruit flavours and balanced by subtle oak.Frankly, this red is superb!
