Geoff Merrill Grumpy Gramps Grenache 2018
AWARDS
96 pts (Winestate Magazine)
93 pts (Australian Wine Showcase Magazine)
92 pts (Sam Kim, Wine Orbit)
Grumpy Gramps sitting in a chair, twirling his mo, tossing Billy in the air.
A youthful red with good depth and purple hues. Dark cherry, black pepper and blackberry come through initially on the aroma. This then relaxes into a more rounded dark fruit and spice character with time in the glass.
As good as the aroma is, the palate is selfishly holding back on it! Where to begin is the next question. Let's start with complex spice, earth and red berry flavours and fine grippy texture. Then a wonderful mid palate unfolds as the wine warms in your mouth filling the 'wings' with luscious fruit. The acidity is balanced without adding astringency to this generous McLaren Vale Grenache.
"Feeling spicy, cheeky and complex? Get a Grumpy Gramps."
