Robert Oatley Finisterre Grenache 2019

80 year old vines in McLaren Vale provide a solid base on which to build this grenache. It’s a traditional McLaren Vale style with ripe, generous and fleshy red and dark fruits with a dusting of baked earth and oak. There is also some bottle age savoury spices starting to sneak in over a bed of sandy tannins on a full-bodied and rich palate so drink this sooner rather than later with Middle Eastern lamb.
