Bekkers Grenache 2022

This 2022 Grenache soars with superb purity of black cherry and blackberry lifted by savoury touches of wood smoke and coal fire, all neatly wrapped in a French oak cloak. Raw power then on display with rich veins of earthy blackberry finely dusted with Middle Eastern spices with great underlying tension, thanks to a wall of fine tannins that drive a long, fine finish. Delicious now and for some time to come.
