Brilliant ruby-red. An exotically perfumed and expressive bouquet evokes ripe red berries, incense, candied rose, along with hints of blood orange and Asian spices. Fleshy and seamless on the palate, offering powerful, appealingly sweet raspberry liqueur, cherry and spicecake flavors that become more lively with aeration. Strongly echoes the floral and spice notes on the subtly tannic finish, which shows very good delineation and spicy thrust. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, December 2021)

Damn this is good. Bright, clean, round but angular? All the things. Crazy acid. So closed then open. Perfume. Red apple candy. Transparent. Beautiful to look at and taste. What a food wine. Fantastic, sexy grenache.

Super sensual and exciting Grenache. 140yrs old own rooted Grenache from sandy soils, from the Vine Vale Barossa Valley. Made like Rayas, so pure, clean, delicate but with a lovely old Vine Grenache punch!

Quite the Grenache. Gushing with notes of raspberries, pomegranate and the right amount earthiness. More old world in style... own rooted vines planted in the late 1800’s. So cool
