Metala 'White Label' Shiraz Cabernet

In 1962 Metala Shiraz Cabernet 1961 won the most coveted Australian wine accolade, the inaugural Jimmy Watson Trophy. The wines continued to be made here until management shifted to various holdings beginning with Dalgety Wine Estate in the early 1970’s. In 1981, 5th Generation Guy Adams took over the management of the mixed farm estate. With a sincere appreciation and respect for viticulture and the family legacy, Guy, together with his wife Liz, began a 20-year-long battle to return Metala to its original home. In 2022 the dream became a reality and Metala came home to Langhorne Creek and the family who planted and have nurtured the vines for more than 130 years.
