Aroma

Red currants, forest berries, freshly sliced fennel and wet river stone. Plenty of rose florals and spice.

Wine & Vintage

2022 was another cracking vintage in McLaren Vale. A long, cool ripening period and no heatwaves meant that we had plenty of opportunity to ripen the Grenache perfectly.

Palate

Cranberry, raspberry and rose hip, crunchy red berries fill the palate. Some fresh fennel and anise. Holding plenty of density and weight, with generous tannin filling out the structure and length.

Ruby Red
