French word meaning ‘greyhound’, Lévrier are one of the oldest breed of dog appearing in ancient art and literature throughout history.

Originally bred as hunting dogs, these majestic animals are constant companions in my life and have been associated with royalty, warriors and noblemen for centuries.

Egyptian God of The Dead, Anubis is represented as a man with a Greyhound dog head, depicted as a protector of graves, his role was to usher souls of the dead safely into the afterlife.
Tutankhamen and Cleopatra's many greyhounds were entombed and sometimes mummified with their owners to protect them on their way into royalty afterlife.

Personally selected single vineyard fruit from dedicated Barossa and Eden Valley growers, matured for 24 months in specific new French oak barrels and bottle aged for a minimum of 12 months before release.

Intense nose and palate expressing notes of chocolate, coffee, licorice, oak spices, jammed fruit, with a touch of earth and cigar box. Well-balanced wine with ripe tannins and a long, savory finish.

Vegan Friendly.

Must be at least 18 years old & over to purchase.
