When you have 80 year old bush vine Grenache dry grown in arguably one of Australia's best regions for the variety what to do with it is easy.... Not much! Minimal Intervention that is. Handpicked. Carefully processed. Bottled early to capture that superb fresh fruit vibrancy.
First you can see that when you pour it. Rich & lively. Floral violet aromas leap out of the glass & pull you in for a closer inspection. Background herbal notes add layers to the bouquet. Then you find out how fruit driven this wine is. Primary red fruits sing. Raspberry. Strawberry. Masachino cherry & confectionery characters (think sugar coated jubes). Just the right amount of pepper & spice.
Add this to great acidity & velvety tannins harmonising to tie in & balance out this very elegant wine. Perfect by itself or slightly chilled as an aperitif. This is the one red wine we all search for that will go brilliantly with any white meat dish. An absolute go-to for Christmas Roast Turkey.
