D’Arenberg The Custodian Grenache 2021

Ah, McLaren Vale Grenache is one of life’s great pleasures. In good years it takes that pleasure into a zone of pure hedonism. Perfumed red florals with a little liqueur chocolate and dried herbs. The palate is smooth, seamless and thoroughly delicious. It also has good weight and richness presented with typical finesse and poise.
