My hunch was that the most ancient grape on the planet, Saperavi, would make for a unique union with McLaren Vale’s prized Shiraz. The elixir was covertly blended and like other ‘black operations’ a Pandora’s box of flavour was opened. A wine for KGB, CIA and civilians. Seek & embrace the unusual. From that irrefutable source of Gospel Truth: Wikipedia…

“A black operation or black op is a covert operation typically involving activities that are highly clandestine and often outside of standard military protocol or even against the law.”

Under these conditions, if you think you’re going to get lots of “Background” information, think again, Sunshine…

At the Western end of our Black Sheep Block is a pocket of Shiraz that lands a mighty punch of meaty-spiciness that couples perfectly with our exotic Saperavi. Contrasting, but complimentary and complex, this has fast become the backbone of the Black Ops Blend.

Dense dried spice and violets are followed with an entire Black Forest of heady fruit. Plums and blackberries. Iodine and beets. Rose and coal smoke, Black tea and raspberry. All opulence in the mouth. A steady wave of fruit and firm grip ploughs down the palate. Bombast but with both charm and class. Bold, brooding, and intense.
