Taylors Wines has released a new addition to their portfolio, a trio that make up the range of Taylor Made wines.
Taylor Made Wines
The new Taylor Made range consists of three different varietals, Adelaide Hills Chardonnay with French oak, Clare Valley Malbec with American oak and Pinot Noir Rosé. The labels on the bottles have been given a different design from the traditional packaging and display three descriptive words to make it easier for wine drinkers to make their choice.
