Samuel’s Gorge Grenache 2019
$40.00
Deep and complex with notes Daphne, chocolate, red, black and blue fruits and autumnal notes. Subtle richness. Terrific volume, weightless somehow but with undeniable presence. Mineral too. Fine, fine, fine wine, finishing with a squeeze of tannin. Australian benchmark, no doubt about it. Waters Wine Co.
A bright, juicy and lithe mid ruby grenache. The proviso, a bit sweet. Succulent. Aromas of raspberry liqueur, white pepper, thyme, cranberry and orange zest are directed by a briary scrub of fine tannins and a saline freshness. The well-appointed oak is more measured than for the top cuvées and serves as an adjunct rather than a scream. 93 points – Ned Goodwin MW, Halliday Wine Companion 2022

Domaine de Ferrand Vieilles Vignes 2019
$38.00Nearly entirely produced from Grenache – from a plot planted in 1920 and almost legally Chateauneuf du Pape; separated bureaucratically only by a skinny country road. Ferrand’s Vieilles Vignes is as good as red Côtes du Rhône gets in my opinion and has much in common texturally with fine burgundy. All stone, silk and spice. […]

Tim Smith Barossa Grenache 2017
$40.00Old vine grenache, matured in old French barrels. Excellent colour; this is an unambiguously good wine, with rock-steady varietal fruit, fragrant and fresh. The palate has very good texture and structure, with hints of pomegranate. – 94 points – James Halliday, Halliday Wine Companion 2020
