THIS WINE SAVES THE SEA. For every 1 bottle of The Hidden Sea that we sell, we remove and recycle 10 plastic bottles from the ocean.
Although a great food wine, especially seafood, at Zonte's Footstep, we drink most of the Excalibur well-chilled, on a sunny afternoon with friends and family... usually followed by a second glass!

The Robert Oatley Signature Series draws on a remarkable portfolio of vineyards nurtured by the winemaking talent of Larry Cherubino showcasing Australia’s most successful wine styles and regions. Bob Oatley’s mantra was that all wines should be a “darned good drink”, and the high quality Signature Series delivers immediate appeal.
A perfumed bouquet of Morello Cherry, black pepper and charred cinnamon spice. A long elegant Shiraz which has silky light tannins that are juicy and complex with ripe fruit flavours and great length.
This wine is full of character with aromas of gooseberry, capsicum, passionfruit, and green bean, interlaced with a barrel ferment complexity. The intense palate retains these characters with the Semillon and wild ferment adding structure and layering and enhancing the very long finish.
A nail-biting finale to the 2022 growing season saw the vineyard lashed by fierce winds and rainy squalls. Yet the shiraz slowly developed both an array of dark fruit aromatics and lush, juicy fruit weight and developed fine and complete tannins, highlighting the granitic minerality of the site and the complexity formed by farming in a marginal yet consistent site.
This wine displays complex aromas of blueberry, plum and cassis, with gentle oak support. The wine is effortlessly mouth filling with juicy dark fruit flavours balanced with acidity and gentle fine-grained tannins which lead to a long finish. It is well suited to red meat dishes such as a roast leg of lamb with garlic and herbs.
This wine displays vibrant blackberries, currants, and subtle spicy aromas. The palate displays flavours of dark fruits, spice and savouriness which persist through to a long, dry finish. It is a medium bodied, cool climate style shiraz of both power and complexity, with silky tannins and a refined delicacy. A shiraz to be enjoyed with fine food and friends.
Deep purple red colour with an aromatic and lifted nose. The palate is medium bodied with rich dark cherry flavours and forest floor – a wine made to stand the test of time.
Barossa blood red colour with a purple hue. On the nose, super blackberries and pure unadulterated 90% Cocoa chocolate. Black plums, macerated raspberry with hints of cracked pepper and brambly spice. Generous dark fruits on the palate, a full and frank Shiraz start. Classic Barossa. Generous, flavoursome with sweet blackberry pie and dark, dry cocoa mouth feel. The after palate begins with sweet berry fruit then tightens up with fine fruit and oak tannin. Sweet Christmas spice cuts through the hints of jamminess. On the finish, youthful austerity as you would expect from such a classic, old-school Shiraz. We imagine drinking this wine with hard local chesses the cheese is optional.
