Natalie's Score: 92/100

Fleshy ripe and sweet blackberry and menthol on the nose and palate of this gorgeous, plump Australian red wine that's a blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Shiraz and 5% Mataro grapes. Supple, smooth and full-bodied. Pai with roast beef, of course.

Grenache Shiraz Mataro food pairings: gourmet hamburgers, sausages, barbecue-grilled meat-lovers’ pizza, lamb cutlets.

Reviews and Ratings

Wineboy rated this wine as 79/100 with the following review:

Hmmm.... for the adventurous wine drinker. Loads of earthy leather and raisin aromas and flavours. Not for a crowd but with Lamb (and an open mind) - yum.
Sister's Run Cow's Corner (2016) is a rich red blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Shiraz and 5% Mataro (Mourvèdre). This robust and dry GSM from the Barossa wine region is smoky cherries, blackberries and so luxurious on the palate. The "cow' corner" is an area of a cricket field with respect to the batsman in cricket and is always deep in the field on the batsman's leg side where the 'cow shots' are intended to go. Cow shots are wild and risky cricket shots considered to be mostly played by novice players without the knowledge of the difficult techniques of the game. - Community Wine Reviews

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
