2015 d’Arenberg The Bonsai Vine Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre
Wine Rating
 
94
This wine took a little time to coax out of the glass, but when it did it revealed a compelling expression of GSM that is well worth the asking price. The nose has a plushness of red cherry and strawberry fruit with flashes of earth and spice. The palate is medium to full bodied and enjoys the inputs of it’s constituent parts, Grenache gives a fleshiness of bright red fruits, Shiraz a note of pepper, plum and bitter dark chocolate. Lastly Mourvedre gives earthen flare and drying tannins. This is a complete wine that is drinking well now but will evolve over the medium term.
