Mostly grenache, some cinsault. Playful GC blend.

Juicy, flirty red. Floral scents, red berries in scents and flavours, good chomp of sticky tannins, this fine, fresh feel throughout. Glistens in the palate; like sucking on a ruby. That lightness and vitality sure is appealing. A very bright, youthful expression of Barossa red, with complexity in tow. MIKE BENNIE, Wine Front

This has bright fragrance with fresh and upbeat red berries, as well as bunchy, spicy kick. Super-fresh palate that has attractively defined tannins and very pure summer berries. Crunchy finish. A blend of grenache and cinsault. NICK STOCK, jamessuckling.com

A 78/22% blend of old Barossa Valley grenache and cinsault from vines aged 40–120 years old. I've always been a fan of this bouncy and intensely aromatic blend for its effortless inherent drinkability and sense of space. Purple hued and light of body, it flits around the palate leaving trails of floral-flecked red fruits, souk-like spice and gentle gypsum-like tannins. Playful, supple & very moreish.
