Description
The Quasimodo has long been one of our favourite value reds at Different Drop - a blend that’s far greater than the sum of its parts.
From Paul and Lauretta Dahlenburg’s family-run Eldorado Road estate, this brings together Nero d’Avola, Durif and Shiraz from vineyards across Eldorado, Beechworth, Glenrowan and Rutherglen. Each variety plays its role: Nero lifts the aromatics, Shiraz adds spice and structure, and Durif gives depth and a touch of darkness.
It’s medium-bodied, bright and savoury, with enough fruit weight to keep it satisfying without feeling heavy. Interest and immense drinkability, this is a versatile red perfect for all occasions.

"Together they bring energy and fruit power to a supple, ripe and beautifully composed wine. A unique Aussie blend worth searching out."

I was searching for Nero D'avola and blends and found this by accident. The description was sufficiently
compelling to take the risk (for 4 bottles), and I find it good value. I'd not hesitate to get more.

Sweet red fruits on the nose. Palate shows good mouth feel with similar sweet fruits supported by subtle oak tannins. Long finish. Excellent wine

A beautiful smooth red that is a little different but very easy to drink. As it isn’t too heavy on the durif, it can be enjoyed by those who like lighter flavours.
