Rockford Frugal Farmer

When we make our Alicante Bouchet each vintage the skin of the grapes are not needed. Instead, we co-ferment them with early picked Grenache and Mataro to make our Frugal Farmer. The addition of the Alicante skins to the ferment gives tannin, spice and a vibrant garnet colour to the wine. We think this resourcefulness would get a quiet nod from the early Barossa pioneer families and you get a light-bodied, lower alcohol, wine to enjoy. Win-win! - From the Winery

Australian Consumer Law details that we are not obligated to provide a refund or replacement if you simply change your mind.  Please choose carefully.  Lion Wine Room acknowledges that on the rare occasion wines can be “faulty”.  If a wine is TCA (corked) or oxidised, we are happy to replace the wine with current vintage.  Always retain your receipt as proof of purchase, is required and we expect the returned bottle to be ¾ full.  Our professional staff will make an assessment of the wine to determine the actual fault, as our suppliers, distributors and winery partners ask for this information, so please don’t be offended.
