Barossa Valley, South Australia – 45% Grenache, 36% Mataro (Mourvèdre), 17% Carignan, 2% Counoise
A Rhône-inspired blend offers vibrant aromas of red cherry, pomegranate, and floral notes, balanced with hints of Chinese five spice and meaty nuances. On the palate, it's medium-bodied with a lithe and plush mouthfeel, showcasing juicy red fruit flavors complemented by savory notes. The wine's long acidity and slightly firmer tannin structure make it both approachable now and suitable for aging. Pairings include spicy Asian or Mexican dishes, grilled meats, or charcuterie. The winery sources fruit from some of the region's oldest vineyards, many of which are dry-grown and date back to the 19th century.
