The Great Entertainer Shiraz 2021
Overview
Overview
Legend has it that Benno Seppelt, son of our founder Joseph, had a flair for invention. His wine-tasting lab was unusual for the time, containing modern equipment of his own design. He also fetched top dollar for his cured bacon, made from pigs fed on grape-skins. But above all else, he was renowned for making great wine.
Seppelt The Great Entertainer Range is a fresh and lively collection of crowd pleasing drops inspired by the many colourful personalities who have been part of Seppelt legend since 1851.

Victoria
Australia’s second smallest state is home to more regions and wineries than any other. A mix of cool and warm regions means variety is the spice of life in Victoria – from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in the Yarra Valley and Mornington Peninsula, to rich Shiraz from Heathcote and the Grampians and world famous fortified wines from Rutherglen, it’s a paradise for wine lovers.
