Mark presents barrel samples and tutors participants on tannins, oak, acid, fruit, depth, length, and mouth feel so guests can formulate their own preferred Shiraz blend.
Each participant takes home a 375ml bottle of their favourite blend and later receives an allocation of 6 bottles of the final Wine Club Shiraz with their name listed on the back label as a contributor.
Any remaining bottles after member allocations may be offered to participants first.
