The 2013 vintage. Prominent raspberry nose, medium weight palate. French CDP grenaches have much less raspberry influence having much more savoury characteristics. Lacked complexity. 16+.

Hade förstått att McLaren Vale Grenache skulle vara rhône-likt och det här är verkligen mycket snarlikt. Bra bäriga druvtypiska drag med lite lakrits och minerala toner. Möjligtvis mindre kryddig och lite mer avrundade hörn. Men på det stora hela bra gjort.

Too gentle the Grenache is. Is that normal?

Violet tones with old cherry rim; quite handsome. Basket of berries and spices on the nose. Fresh figs aromas as well, and very subtle sweaty horse. Inky dark entry, very profound. Very, very deep and dark. Strawberries and blackberries mixed in an incredible dimension. Very voluptuous and muscular wine, with gorgeous structure covered in delicious fruit and spices. Certain metalic and mineral traits as well. Blueberries on the endless finish!! This wine got 95 pts by Australian Wine Companion. 96 pts from me
