Bondar Rayner Vineyard Grenache 2023
$38.00
A thoroughly singular grenache, from a winemaker I suspect loves pinot noir and nebbiolo. Wafting aromatics, sultry, with cherry, rhubarb, pomegranate, English summer fruits, rose verbena, violets and biscuit. Deep flavour, yet light and gentle, with lovely sinewy, grippy tannins, that melt to something more tea like. Long carry, nudged by a lovely line of acidity. Waters Wine Co
It’s very early on this, and these are always made to age, but the charm of the vintage has its say. Dried and fresh rose, raspberry leaf, rosemary and dried orange peel across tart raspberry, pomegranate and redcurrant, the ripeness neatly captured for flavour and verve, with a proper line of grape and stem tannin, artfully extracted, pristinely ripe, acidity a guiding vector. 96 Points, Halliday Wine Companion

Bondar Higher Springs Grenache 2022

Tim Smith MGS 2022
$28.00The power of blends is clearly evident and this was for me my favorite wine in the Tim Smith line up. The different grapes have complemented each other beautifully. Rich, juicy, hedonistic, fragrant and savory, the Mataro adding smoke, compost and firm, grippy tannins. Controlled power, the shiraz still comes through strongly, a mass of […]

Paralian Marmont Vineyard Grenache 2022
$45.00Sumptuous grenache. Just because it’s grown on sand doesn’t mean it has to be light, or pretty, or boney, or cliche of all cliches, have sandy tannins. It is pretty and the tannins are ‘pumicey’ and grainy, but this Paralian grenache always has power, weight, density and a savouriness, harmonising the sweet fruit. The fruit […]

Thistledown Thorny Devil Grenache 2023
$35.00From several districts, off old, dry-grown bush vines. The ferments are all nuanced, but all are wild, and there is always some whole bunch; maturation for eight months in old French oak. Pale in hue and pretty in fragrance, such is the vintage. Flavours skip through cranberry, wild raspberry, pomegranate and rose, with white pepper […]
