Bekkers McLaren Vale Grenache 2023

I’m always excited to see the offers offered by Toby and Emmanuelle Bekkers. This one is less opulent, the result of a very cool long season, but the bright acidity and lifted fruit fragrances more than compensate. Aromas of bright florals with a subtle rose petal and light plummy nuance. The palate is smoothly textured and more medium weight with the fine chalky tannins and understated oak producing a wine of elegance and precision.
