Vibrancy and freshness are the key characters of the cool 2023 season. Characters of rhubarb, raspberry and earthy beetroot perfectly represent the three constituents of the blend. Juicy red fruit frames an opulent palate with lightly rocky texture and fine tannin adding definition and length.

Reviews

"A blend of 55/28/17% grenache/shiraz/mataro. Grenache from Polygons 2 and 4 (80% whole bunch), shiraz Blocks 5 and 6 plus Polygon 1 and mataro from Block 3. Fermented separately in concrete before blending.

Likely to be the most pure-smelling GSM you'll pass your nose over from the '23 vintage. All juicy plum, raspberry, spice, rhubarb, dried citrus rind, raspberry pip, crushed rock and blossomy top notes. Medium bodied, with fine, toothsome tannins and a snappy, sour cherry sapidity as it trails off all calm and stony."

- 95 Points, Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion



"So perfumed and pretty, with dark aromas of blackberry compote, boysenberries, mulberry bush, fresh figs, graphite and spices. The palate is plush, with a rounded mouthfeel and fine-tuned tannins that have a minerally and metallic edge from aging in concrete. A vibrant and focused release of this cuvee, made from 55% grenache, 28% shiraz and 17% mataro. Wonderfully balanced. Drink or hold."
