A blend of Shiraz from McLaren Vale and Grenache and Mourvèdre from the Riverland. Young and so juicy. A bright blend of raspberry, pomegranate, ripe strawberry and some candy. Serve slightly chilled if you like, for a real fruit explosion. Not a light wine - the tannin builds on finish - but fruity and really enjoyable.

Origin: Southern Rhône, France. Mainly Grown In: Southern France, South Australia, west coast USA. Key Facts: Grenache has a curious way of making a great team captain when it comes to blends. Who can resist the confident red fruity flavours and spice it brings to the game! Though it’s most recognised for its contribution in the GSM (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre) blend, it’s no surprise that us adventurous Aussie’s decided to play with the classic mix and have some real fun. The final wine is a balance of the best parts of all three, which usually means a round medium-bodied mouthful of juicy flavours, violet and lingering savoury spices. Fun Fact: A Pope (Clemens V in case you're the curious type) loved this blend so much that the most iconic GSM making region is called Châteauneuf-du-Pape, which means the 'Pope's New Castle'. You better believe there was a lot of GSM flowing here.
