The essence of making Young Blood is simply transmitting the raw flavours from each of our vineyards into the bottle, resulting in an incredibly juicy elegant wine. Grenache 34% Mataro 33% Shiraz 33% Drinkability: Day or night, hot or cold – Young Blood is for everyday consumption.
Tomfoolery began as a fun project of Barossa young guns and best mates Ben Chipman and Toby Yapp. They took 1 tonne of old vine Shiraz and created the instant smash-hit, first bottling of the Artful Dodger Shiraz. Over the following vintages the boys expanded their production to include Pinot Gris, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Mataro, Tempranillo from the Barossa; as well as Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir from the Adelaide Hills. In early 2018/19 Ben and wife Sarah bought Toby’s share and have opened the beautiful Tomfoolery Cellar Door in Light Pass, SA. The winemaking philosophy is simple: small parcels of fruit, hand-tended through a simple, relatively non-interventionist approach, with the aim to truly reflect the individual characteristics of the vineyard and variety. These wines are made with old world simplicity in a new world region.
The fruit, whether from their own vineyards and selected growers is hand-picked in the coolest, early hours of the morning. Wines are matured in barrel and bottled with no fining or filtration after 12 or 24 months, depending on the cuvee.
The food pairing options are endless with this wine, pair with your favourite takeout meal or if you're looking for something more low key, pair with your favourite homemade pizza - enjoy!
