South Australian Grenache with 95 Parker points.
A transparent rim, but no hint of browning yet. Still
relatively tannic, and primary fruit. Sweet but not raisined, hot but not
jammy. An opulent black fruit aroma does hide a slight leafy tartness, and a
dry finish. No Grenache white pepper notes. In fact, I find it rather
undistinguished in terms of taste: there is nothing more than that undistinct black
fruit. Nevertheless, it has a beautiful mouthfeel, silken especially across the
mid palate, and a long aftertaste. Probably needs more cellaring; I don’t feel
it has fully opened out yet.90/100
