Almost garnet on the color. Raging high acidity and dried red fruits on the nose which reminds me of Northern Italian wines. Smooth tannin and nice finish. A killer in blind tasting. Very distinctive

Lolly confectionery jubey Notes. Some twiggy bitterness indicating whole bunch. A little simple for the producer (one of the best in Australia) the region (McLaren Vale probably the best source for Grenache in Australia) the vintage (2014 excellent) and the price $54. Also 72 year old dry grown bush vines. Expected more. Next time will decant earlier as the label suggests.

Serious wine. Amazing structure and depth. There's power here too but undeniable elegance. Red fruits and hints of earth with fine tannin. Young but beautiful
