About The Wine
The Oliver's Taranga Corrina's Shiraz Cabernet jumps out of the glass and offers a rich and rewarding drinking experience.
Made with slightly more Shiraz than Cabernet, there is a delicious mix of blue and red fruits (blueberry, plum, mulberry), as well as some hints of chocolate and mint. The palate is silky yet rich, with the fruit and savoury flavours accentuated by the bright acidity and fine tannins. Despite the challenging vintage, all components shine really well.
If you can wait, the Oliver's Taranga Corrina's Shiraz Cabernet will continue to improve in bottle, although it's drinking wonderfully right now.
About Oliver's Taranga
Five generations of the Oliver family have been farming land in McLaren Vale dating back to the 1840s.
There are now 100 hectares of land under vine on the Taranaga property - Taranga is a corruption of the aboriginal word Tarangk, meaning ‘the middle' which was used by the Kaurna, a local aboriginal tribe.
Under the trailblazing guidance of winemaker Corrina Wright, there are now near 50 blocks of different varieties and clones. A McLaren Vale melting pot!

WINE & VINTAGE
2020 was a challenging vintage in a challenging world. There was a significant lack of rain through winter and spring, and an early heat spike during grape set that resulted in loss of crop. Hence, 2020 was an extremely low tonnage vintage, all while a pandemic raged. A rare beast, the Corrina’s is a co-fermented, field blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, made only in years when both varieties reach optimum ripeness at harvest.AROMA
Blueberry, chocolate dust, choc mint cookies and a bright plummy nose.

Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
