Yet another of the remarkable Grenache wines we are seeing these days. This multi-trophy winning wine shows just what Grenache can do in McLaren Vale. The fruit comes from Blewitt Springs, one of my favourite subregions, producing wines of finesse and generally medium weight while losing nothing in flavour intensity. So bright and pure with a light perfume of cherry and raspberry with a rose petal background. A wonderful example of the variety. Price: $40.00; Drink to: 2023 - 2031; Rating: 97 Points; Ray Jordan

This glorious grenache has been built on three parcels from Blewitt Springs, McLaren Flat and Willunga. Brightly coloured, the bouquet is a rainbow of red and black cherry fruits sprinkled with spices, the palate bringing fine-spun tannins into play to give the wine a 10-year future.
