Disco Special is a 70% Shiraz, 30% Grenache blend sourced from organically farmed vineyards in McLaren Vale, South Australia. The grapes come from sites managed by viticulturist Fiona Wood, who has worked exclusively with Jauma since 2011. Vines at several of these blocks date to the 1940s and are dry-grown on the region's diverse mix of red-brown sandy loams, sandy soils, and clay subsoils.
Winemaker James Erskine ferments with native yeasts and uses a short maceration before pressing. The wine goes to tank and is bottled unfined and unfiltered with no added sulfur — consistent with Erskine's practice since 2015. Bottles are sealed under crown cap.
The result is a lighter-framed, high-acid red that avoids the dense, extracted style McLaren Vale is often associated with. Expect tart black plum, crunchy blueberry, black olive, and a peppery lift from the Shiraz. Serve slightly chilled — around 55-60F — for best results.
