Yep a #barossa Grenache. Easy drinking. Had a lightness and elegance to it. Good fruit structure and balance. The Tuesday night pizza wine. #aussiewine

Gentle spice and oak on the nose. Full juicy-fruited power. Succulent tannin structure and excellently balanced. Loving the fruit!

Nose closed, sweet fruit attack, not a lot of character, but what I do taste is a touch of cassis and violets. Not worth the price.

The "conventional wisdom" is spot on, this is an 8.8, good but not remarkable. Grenache isn't my thing, but this went fairly well with tacos.
