Nouveau in name, nouveau in style. This is the innate joy of this Grenache so twist the cap open as soon as a bottle lands in your hands. Early drinking will release all of the juniper, red licorice, florals and plum, raspberry and cherry aromas still fresh and lively. Fruit fills the mouth in this light-to-medium bodied young Grenache sourced off the well-known and regarded Arrawatta Vineyard at Great Western. It’s delicious, plummy and easy to get to know and enjoy, and well defined in juicy acidity and tangy tannins. And the spice!
