Black Duck Durif 2025


Matured in American oak, the Black Duck Durif is full bodied and smooth with layers of spicy fruit. It's made by Sam Trimboli, who makes some of our best-loved Australian wines.
We’ve known Sam for over 30 years and during that time he’s developed an obsession for obscure Durif – a “stunning little powerhouse grape that develops astounding complexity”, as he describes it.
The Durif grapes for this wine come from a small vineyard that Sam helped establish in the 1980s. The vines are now at peak maturity, and the old-vine fruit lends intense dark fruit to this luscious red wine – perfect with char-grilled steak, a hearty casserole, strong cheeses, or as a warming glass solo.
