2022 Samuel's Gorge Grenache

About The Wine

Grenache is certainly enjoying its moment in the spotlight after being utilised almost entirely as a blending variety for many years. These days there is genuine interest and moreover, reverence, for McLaren Vale Grenache.

The 2022 release displays varietal musk and field strawberry over a core of boysenberry with the “pop” of goji berry. It is opulent, yet medium-bodied and ethereal, held tightly through its structural composition of firm, dusty tannins and zingy acidity.

Finishing fresh on the palate, this wine will pair wonderfully with a meal eaten alfresco. It is a versatile wine that goes well with just about anything, so enjoy it with good company and warm summer evenings.

About Samuel's Gorge

Samuel's Gorge represents a mosaic of dreams anchored by a philosophy of people and place. Founded by winemaker Justin McNamee in 2003, this distinctive winery commands breathtaking views of the Onkaparinga River National Park to the north and the ocean to the south, creating an inspiring backdrop where tradition meets imagination.

The wines of Samuel's Gorge are crafted entirely by hand, using time-honored techniques; indigenous yeasts and long slow ferments capturing the essence of each unique vintage. These aromatics-driven wines offer immediate pleasure with their texture, silkiness, and intrigue, yet possess the structural backbone to reward those who cellar them.
