Swinney Grenache 2020
$40.00Unbelievable complexity. Floral, rose petals five spice, Morello cherry, chocolate, pastille blackcurrant and thyme. Pure and silky palate, and like the nose, terrific delineation of flavours. Textually caressing, the tannins move from chalk to velvet, gripping your attention. Assertive and refined, impossibly beautiful and a masterclass of the variety. Good luck finding a better Grenache […]

Swinney Farvie Grenache 2020
$155.00The combination of subtle floral perfumes and more rustic slightly herb and ferrous aromas is engaging. The mouthfeel and palate take this wine into a heady zone with the chalky mouthfeel and fruit intensity working harmoniously. There is a distinct ferrous ironstone character with that slightly wild influence that comes from a small volume of […]

Paralian Blewitt Marmont Vineyard Grenache 2020
$42.00A stellar vintage in these parts: extract and freshness, a holy duopoly. Fragrant, febrile, mid-weighted of feel, despite the concentration and totem of juicy tannins. Spindly, detailed and drenched in tamarind, turmeric and clove, akin to the sensations of a souk. This is like sucking on an orange mulled with sour cherry and exotica. Long […]

S.C. Pannell Old Macdonald Grenache 2019
$65.00Pinot with a Mediterranean vibe. Full, but feels ethereal. Firm, but feels svelte. A mid ruby at best. Succulent. A meld of fecund raspberry, root spice, clove, cranberry and rosehip, drawn at the waist by a firm skein of saline, puckering tannin, sandy and pumice-like. The founder of the contemporary grenache zeitgeist. Fine. 95 Points […]

Yangarra Old Vine Grenache 2020
$40.00Medium ruby core, bright ruby into the rim. Raspberries, violets and dried thyme aromas. Medium-bodied but sits light and lithe. Red fruits, dry herbs and sandstone flavours are layered throughout. Sandy tannins are distinct but not without reason. There’s an underlying power here that speaks of serious intent in the vineyard and winery. It lingers […]

S.C. Pannell Smart Vineyard Grenache 2019
$65.00Elevated old-vine Clarendon sourcing. Intense aromas of molten cherry liqueur, orange amaro, bergamot and cranberry. A fine vinous pulse, drawing the fore with the aft. Long attenuated filigreed tannins, sandy to be sure, but very fine. This is exceptional Grenache that, with a few others, sets the regional high tone. 96 points – Ned Goodwin […]

Red fruits, and some dark plum and kirsch with flecks of vanilla bean. One of the best bistro reds around, that will go with almost […]
