Sample
A slightly reductive nose with stemmy rhubarb and dark cherry that opens up with time in the glass.

The palate is a drying and serious expression of McLaren Vale with a sullen earthiness that is broken through by dark cherry and bracken with a milk chocolate note that gives contrast to distinctively drying red berry fruits

This will be a very long lived Grenache.
