This Wine Knot drop champions that rustic earthy spice we just love from Barossa Grenache especially when blended with partners Shiraz and Mataro. Having had some time to cellar this wine shows some developing fruit character and leathery flavours. Medium-bodied, dusty tannins and as savoury round mouthfeel packed with dried black cherry, raspberry and array of your favourite baking spices.

Origin: Southern Rhone, France. Mainly Grown In: France, Australia, USA. Key Facts: GSM could stand for a lot of things — trust us we checked urban dictionary — but when it comes to the vocabulary of wine lovers like yourself, it only means one thing: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre. It's a blend of three grapes that have a long history of getting together and bringing their own unique grape traits to the party — like old school mates. Grenache is known to contribute loads of spice and candied red fruit flavours. Syrah brings structure and dark fruit flavours, and Mourvèdre finishes the blend with an earthy, sometimes meaty character and tannin. The final wine is a balance of the best parts of all three, which usually means it's medium-bodied, deliciously thirst-quenching and spice, with no shortage of charm. 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 Popes New Castle". You better believe there was a lot of GSM flowing here.
