About this product
Pairs well with Cured MeatsMcLaren Vale, AustraliaThis fruit driven Grenache was produced from fruit selected from our old War Horse block planted in 1943. These old bush vines have delivered rose petal, spicy raspberry, and strawberry on the bouquet, with the palate delivering pomegranate. Loganberry, sweet Stella cherry and cranberry complemented by hints of cedar and vanillin oak. Ready for immediate drinking or will cellar until 2026 under right cellaring conditions.

I like everything about this wine aside from the lack of structure. A floozy. A satinesque curtain of molten raspberry and bitter chocolate without any guidance. An underaged disco.
