Details
A very pale pink, this could almost be mistaken for Pinot Noir - translucent in the glass, and aromas of cherry and fairy floss. Plenty of red fruits as well - slightly dark and brooding but also lifted, floral and alive. More complex notes of clove and white pepper come into play, giving the wine length and character. No oak here, this is light and fun and frisky - the perfect wine to chill down for warm weather.

Grenache is a life-of-the-party kind of grape — fun, fruity, and charismatic with a spicy pep to its feet and an inviting warmth of approachability. And, despite its Spanish origin and well established 19th century home in France (where it so happened to be the Pope’s wine of choice) the world's oldest continuously producing Grenache vines are actually where the life of the party always has been; Australia. Grenache is lighter in body and softer in tannin than many other red grapes which is why it is both so easy to drink on its own and why it's teamed up to make blends (like GSM) with other grapes that may need a friendlier touch to soften up them up and chill out their bold and up-tight and tannic tendencies.

Pairing guide
We’re mighty proud of this own-label Grenache, which packs in mountains of juiciness and depth, and definitely delivers the goods when it comes to food pairing. We love this wine with roast chicken thighs, topside of beef with all the trimmings, and with classic stews like goulash. It loves a bit of smoke too, so feel free to crack it open at a barbecue or on your next Mexican culinary adventure, or whenever you feel like cooking up a mild Indian or Chinese curry.

Wine region
Riverland, Australia
Located in the heart of South Australia, the Riverland wine region is a tropical paradise for wine lovers. The region was formerly known for its traditional wines, particularly Shiraz, Chardonnay, and Grenache as well as its abundance of sunshine and beautiful scenery. In the last few years it's added a raft of Mediterranean varieties to its charm - think Fiano and Nero d'Avola. The warm climate and fertile soils of the Riverland make it a perfect place for grape growing, and the wines produced there are bursting with flavour. So why not explore the wines of the Riverland and discover a new favourite?
