Zonte's FootstepSplitting Hares Tempranillo Grenache Fleurieu 2021
About this product
No hares were harmed in the making of this wine. It did involve splitting hairs as we tweaked the proportions of the blend in tiny one percent increments until the perfect balance was achieved. This is the exact point at which the juicy, fragrant Grenache just tames the savoury chewiness of the Tempranillo.
The result is a cheeky mezcla of red and blue fruit: raspberry, blueberry, plum and red cherry flavours with whirls of jasmine and lavender followed by secondary notes of pomegranate molasses, crushed gravel and Dutch-cocoa tannin. Down the hole!
“If you pursue two hares, both will escape you.”

"Smooth and comfortingly delicious, the wine shows dark berry, assorted nut, clove and game notes on the nose. The palate displays gorgeously rounded mouthfeel and rich texture, wonderfully complemented by juicy fruit intensity and spicy nuances. At its best: now to 2029."
