Wine Description
Crack a bottle, crank the wood oven pizzas and rejoice - 175 years on, and Grenache has finally reached the height of McLaren Vale cool. With all the fragrances of a mushroom foraging tromp through the pine trees, this medium-bodied Grenache is full of spice, earth and forest berry aromas.
