The 2024 Dune 'The Empty Quarter' is a premium, medium-bodied red wine blend produced in the Blewitt Springs sub-region of McLaren Vale, South Australia. Crafted by brothers Duncan and Peter Lloyd (the next generation behind the famous Coriole estate), Dune focuses on organic farming practices and thoughtful, minimal-intervention winemaking

The 2024 vintage consists of 47% Grenache, 40% Shiraz, and 13% Mataro (Mourvèdre), occasionally co-fermented with tiny fractions of other Mediterranean varieties like Touriga Nacional or Cinsault depending on the seasonal pick.

Profile and Tasting Notes
  • Aromas: Prominent lift of glossy purple fruits, dark cherry, and mulberry, complemented by sweet sage flower, aniseed, cured meats, and white pepper. [1, 2]
  • Palate: A juicy, vibrant entry loaded with blue and dark fruits, plum, blueberry, and subtle hints of dark cocoa. [1, 2]
  • Structure: Concentrated, fresh, and silky with proud, fine-grained tannins that deliver excellent structural length and a savory finish. [1, 2, 3]
  • Winemaking: The grapes are harvested together and fermented in open-top concrete fermenters for roughly 10 days before maturing in seasoned oak for 12 months. The wine is bottled without fining and with minimal sulphur additions.
