Captures the balance of deep warm red fruit and herbal scented goodness that makes Grenache a House favorite for me. Could drink this all the time.

Full fruit on the front, finishes strong. Would go very well with grilled meat especially lamb.

Lean. A bit astringent and sour, due to the vintage 2011.

2011. Elegant for Aussie GR. More peppery and less fruit driven.

Excellent Grenache- Jammy and moderately light but still has structure.
