Details
Juicy blackberries, plums, and a hit of peppery spice lead the way in this super drinkable Spanish blend. Smooth tannins, a touch of dried herbs, and hints of chocolate and vanilla round it out. Bold fruit, easy structure, and great balance - a solid go-to red with zero fuss and plenty of flavour!

Origin: Aragon, Spain. Mainly Grown In: France, Spain, Italy, USA, Australia and South Africa. Key Facts: 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 in 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 them up and chill out their bold, up-tight and tannic tendencies. Fun Fact: A Catalan word *garnaxa* referred to a judge or counsellor's gown or robe that had a colour similar to that of the Grenache grapes.

Pairing guide
This bold yet smooth red loves flavour-packed dishes with a little char, a little spice, and plenty of depth. Pair it with smoky grilled chorizo and roasted red pepper flatbreads, 'nduja pizza, or go for sticky lamb ribs with a honey-chilli glaze. It’s a natural match for patatas bravas, roasted aubergine with tahini and herbs, or a wild mushroom and manchego quesadilla. For a comfort food twist, try it with slow-cooked beef ragu over polenta or a charred veggie paella. Basically, if it’s rich, rustic, or slightly smoky, this wine’s already pouring itself a glass.
