Rhône and rigor... yummy, earthy, umami... mushrooms and broth. Light tannins. The edges of dark fruit as they stretch towards vegetation. An adventure I’d embark on again. — 3 years ago

Quite surprising. Smelled of black currants, blackberries. Tasted of prunes with nice acid at the end and not much tannins. Really dark fruit. — 7 months ago
Beautiful summer Chardonnay. Quite floral with lots of green apple and lime that blends into a vanilla caramel — 3 years ago

I made no notes at the restaurant so doing this from memory. Firstly when the menu is degustation, I never get the matching wine option, preferring to choose a bottle that goes with all courses as much as possible. This light to medium bodied Grenache fits the bill and ticks all the boxes - best district for Grenache in Australia; old vine Grenache, a terrific vintage in South Australia; and a hands off, alternate producer. Grenache can be such a chameleon from barely medium weight with stalky red fruits like this one, with a lovely red floral perfume, to full bodied versions like Rayas and Bonneau Celestins. Barb and I really enjoyed this. Also, Delectable, this was a Grenache Carignan blend - not offered in your database. Continuing our road trip through the Mornington Peninsula. — 5 months ago
Velvety mouth feel with sweet ripe fruit in the front, mineral on the nose and a dry finish. — 3 years ago

Monday night pull. Idiot friend wanted wine with burgers. He said “it’s red meat”. Meh, rather have a coke. Good juice. Cork was soft. Enjoyable but maybe better sooner? I won’t know. — 18 days ago
