Top Notes For

8.5

Dark ruby bordering on purple. Substantial body. Cherry, tobacco, vanilla and some eucalyptus on the nose. More cherry and red fruit on the palate with a nice hefty and spicy finish. After a couple of hours of opening it developed an earthier scent. For the price this is something special. Lovely to see Australian Grenache as a point of comparison to the old world varietals. Try this!
