This was one of the earlier versions of the famous Rhone blend made here and it is still one of our more exciting efforts. From Barossa bush vines of 80 years of age and more, the blend is 38% Grenache, 31% Shiraz and 30% Mourvedre. The remaining 1%This was one of the earlier versions of the famous Rhone blend made here and it is still one of our more exciting efforts. From Barossa bush vines of 80 years of age and more, the blend is 38% Grenache, 31% Shiraz and 30% Mourvedre. The remaining 1%? Apparently, that falls into accounting roundup errors (seriously). Maturation is in large French oak foudres. The wine is made by Craig Stansborough. I'm not sure if Craig was with Grant when he started back in the late 80s, but I can't remember a time when he wasn't. In other words, few people in Australia have more experience with this style.
An attractive dark blood red, this is tight and concentrated, big and bold. There is very good length with some grip on the finish, but the texture remains sleek throughout. The nose reveals notes of chocolates, mushrooms, coffee grinds, warm earth and cranberries with some spicy touches throughout. A lovely example of the style, this will provide enjoyable drinking over the next ten to twelve years. Apparently, that falls into accounting roundup errors (seriously).
