Juicy's Shiraz Magnum 2022
About the wine
Your BIG juicy thank you from Australian winemaking royalty is a 1.5L Magnum of his silky-smooth Shiraz
-
Peter ‘Juicy’ Gajewski once made Australia’s most prized Shiraz - the world-famous Penfolds Grange - but he always dreamed of making a wine of his own with no corporate accountants looking over his shoulder. Thanks to Angels like you, he was able to do just that. That’s why you’re getting a special 1.5L reward Magnum of his Juicy Shiraz in return.
-
Even though he doesn’t work for Penfolds anymore, Juicy still gets special access to some iconic old vines to make wines just for you. Which means you get to taste the explosive flavour of a proper Barossa Shiraz without having to fork out £50 for a bottle of Penfolds!
-
If you’ve got a big family roast lined up for Easter Sunday, your 1.5L magnum of Juicy’s super-moreish Shiraz will blow everyone away. From the first sniff you’ll be in red and black berry fruit heaven. It's a silky-smooth, generous red packed full of rich brambly fruit and brimming with flavour, right down to the lingering notes of vanilla, spice and toasty French oak.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Peter 'Juicy' Gajewski
-
Juicy was born and raised in Shiraz heaven – Barossa Valley – where he planted vineyards as a kid that went on to be owned by one of Australia’s most iconic wineries. “Growing up in a grape growing and winemaking environment, wine was in my blood.” he says. Forty years and a host of international awards later, he has literally come back to his roots.
-
It turns out the vines he planted all those years ago were Juicy’s golden ticket to winemaking superstar status. His knowledge of the vineyards, combined with the natural flair he’d shown in his career so far, saw him made Chief Winemaker at the iconic Penfolds winery, where he made some of Australia’s most prized Shiraz… in the very vineyards he’d planted as a boy.
-
Safe to say, Juicy knows how to make a bangin’ wine and he’s chuffed to share his brilliant kit - that’s so close to his heart - with you. “I love seeing people enjoying the fruits of my labor, and it’s so important to me that the wines I create are in a style that the Angels enjoy. It is an honor to have the privilege of making wine for you.”
