Dry, Medium Bodied style of Grenache
About this product
Dry, Medium Bodied style of GrenacheThe family Grenache block on Thiele Road in Bethany are one of the old vines planted in the 40's and still producing fantastic fruit today. Schwarz has dark inky purple colour with a great aromas of sour cherry, ripe dark fruits and a hint of fresh raspberry on the nose. Although not fruit driven, the red fruits characters are lifted with some earthy oak undertone on the palate. Hint of fresh spices with some subtle tannin towards a rather long finish. A bold wine with a difference.

I've always been a fan of this Bethany-born, single-vineyard grenache from Jason Schwarz. The '23 is a pretty compelling wine; spacious with a touch of sinew and chewy tannin to its form; dark plum and cherry fruit tones, studded with hints of amaro herbs, exotic spice, earth, cured meats, cola and brambly, whole-bunchy (30% in '23) intrigue. Some meaty tones hum underneath all the spice and fruit too, which I love.
