DESCRIPTION
A Grenache that moonlights as a Pinot Noir? Well that's a first. The Pinot shows up in the bouquet, with its trademark notes of clove, flowers, spices and red berries. On the palate, orange peel and cinammon take the lead. Medium-bodied with dusty tannins, this wine is structured for ageing. This wine pairs nicely with Mediterranean food, grilled meats and/or lasagna.
REGION
McLaren Vale
Australia
The McLaren Vale wine region, just south of Adelaide, is highly regarded in Australia and around the world. Shiraz tops the list of the region's award winning wines, making McLaren Vale a favourite place to grow this grape. Cabernet Sauvignon is another key variety, along with Grenache and Mourvèdre, which together with Shiraz make some of the most acclaimed GSM blends in the region. Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc lead the white grapes of McLaren Vale, with a wealth of other regional and international specialities such as Merlot, Zinfandel, Tempranillo, Sangiovese and Viognier also making their mark.
Recommended for you:
A Grenache with the character of a Pinot Noir. Aromas of clove and red fruits. The tannins are supple but active. A well-structured wine that wonderfully accompanies grilled foods.
