Grenache is a real chameleon. It can be light and detailed like this or full bodied like some blood and thunder examples from McLaren Vale. HH said this wine was “Pinotesque”. Light tawny red in colour. On the light to medium bodied palate raspberry and earthy notes. A strange descriptor I know but Barb and I detected a note of mouldy apple. Light to medium in body but medium plus intensity of flavour. From 130 year old bush vines in the Barossa Valley. We thoroughly enjoyed this. Looking forward to the remaining 2 bottles.
