"It was a hot vintage but the conditions don’t seem to have done this grenache any harm. I may be under-rating it. It tastes iof raspberry, licorice, five-spice and earth. The wine’s fleshy, velvety tannin keeps the warm flavour in tidy check. It has good length and good up-front appeal, but it’s likely to age well over many years. It’s a bright version of an old-fashioned South Australian burgundy. It had me lapping it up. Rated : 92+ Points" - Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front. The 2009 vintage produced some exceptional Grenache, rich in colour and tannin structure. The result is a vibrant Grenache which displays primary fruit characters of fresh raspberry and plum. A balanced and elegant wine, with a pleasantly warming palate of sweet spice and clove. More savoury characters of fennel and black pepper give way to a lingering fine tannin finish. This wine will age gracefully with careful cellaring of up to 10 years.
