43% Grenache, 34% Shiraz, 23% Mourvèdre with 50% whole berries retained. Matured in a mix of puncheons, foudre, ceramic eggs and amphora. Wild strawberries, raspberry leaf and cranberry sauce. A sprinkle of blackberries and graphite. Gone are the days where GSM blends are heady, tired and leafy. This is persistent with jubilant fruit and an even medium bodied palate. Smooth tannins and a wonderful all round red. This wine will do plenty of the work for you in a crowd, it would please a drinker of Pinot, Shiraz or Malbec. Perfect with chicken flatbreads and a spread of dips.
