Description
In a nutshell:
Juicy, vibrant and generous - a South Australian red to keep even the most picky drinkers happy.
The lowdown:
Luscious, juicy fruits with plenty of body and depth, this is an impressive advert for South Australian Grenache if ever there was one. A grape a somewhat overshadowed in this part of the world, but the guys at Willunga 100 have made it a bit of a speciality of theirs and they really turn out some delicious examples which have been turning heads for some time now. Red fruits, earthy spices and liquorice assail the nose (in a good way!) and the full-bodied feel in the mouth gives it a real generosity of spirit. Makes an interesting change from the Shiraz's or Cab Sauvs you more often come across.
The Producer:
A focus on Grenache was the driving force behind the setting up of Willunga 100. The owners, David Gleave MW and John Ratcliffe, had come across some plots of 50-year-old vines which they felt they could focus on to in their desire to revive the neglected fortunes of the grape in the McLaren Vale. The region's combination of tailor-made geology, mediterranean climate together with their old vines produce excellent, concentrated fruit. And with their skills in the winery, they turn out a range of very accomplished wines.
When to drink:
A red meat wine if ever there was one, but with its juiciness and up front fruit it's also pretty good just by itself.
Suitable for Vegans
