6% Shiraz, 22% Mouvedre, 22% Grenache

The name refers to a Golden Monkey depicted on a Chinese stamp, the monkey being part of the Chinese Zodiac. The stamp combines three lucky symbols in Chinese culture - the number 8, the colour red and the monkey, making it a truly lucky stamp in Chinese culture and increasing its popularity. It has now become a valuable stamp for philatelists to collect.

Brick red wine with good colour. A nose of mulberries, red currant blackberry, cinnamon and with a hint of white pepper and aniseed. An aromatic spicy blend with supple, soft tannins for summer drinking. 

This is a Rhone blend which is becoming increasingly popular across the world.
