Description

The Riche Shiraz from Faber is one that packs a serious flavour punch.

It's their best selling red for a reason - it's got everything you'd want from a WA Shiraz! Rich, soft and full of deep, dark berries alongside seductive aromas of chocolate and vanilla thanks to the time spent in oak.

Drink it now or tuck it away for a while, the choice is yours for this luscious beauty.

92 Points - "Rich, raspberry coulis, classic bit of regional ferrous stuff, but a bit of a cooler feel to the wine here, and indeed, almost perfumed, with some banana split/vanilla oak and spice. Medium to full-bodied, succulent and flavoursome, blueberry and blackcurrant, a little nut and toasty stuff, soft tannin, and a juicy blue-fruited finish of good length. It’s a more approachable, and juicy version of Riche, but very good to drink. And indeed, it’s quite the squishy charmer." - Gary Walsh (The Wine Front)

Drinkability, burn the word into your brain because that’s what this wine is all about. We make this wine with only that word in mind.

The Riche is a delicious drink. It’s delicious young, it’s delicious old, it’s delicious with or without food. The wonderful Swan Valley sun lends itself to making richly fruited, medium-bodied, soft-finishing reds. And those are exactly the characteristics we achieve in this wine. Free-run juice fermented slow and matured for 10-12 months in a mix of old and new American and French oak barrels.

Faber Vineyard

John Griffiths & Jane Micallef established Faber Vineyard in 1997, after John spent 10 years gaining all the knowledge he could on how to make fantastic warm climate wines.

They chose to plant and embrace "traditional" varieties that thrive in the Swan Valley, like Verdelho and Shiraz, turning them into rich and flavourful wines with supreme drinkability and age-worthiness.

The aim of Faber Vineyard is to continue to make their mark on Swan Valley wine by creating wines with their signature house style.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
