Willunga 100 Grenache Rosé Australia Case Deal 12 x 75cl

"95 Points. This comes off the home Blind Spot Vineyard in Blewitt Springs from younger vine fruit, with material propagated from the Smart Vineyard, as well as 50-year-old bush vines. A pale coppery pink, this is both fresh and intense, with breezy scents of red flowers, blood orange, tangelo, redcurrant and tart strawberry, the ripeness ideally catching flavour expression, neither too much nor little. The palate follows suit, poised across texture and vibrant drive. This is beautifully balanced and composed, and at such an early stage. Lovely." - Marcus Ellis, James Halliday Wine Companion.

"93 Points. Fabulous lunchtime slings and large pours await with this Willunga 100 Grenache Rosé. A label going places, this and the new Grenache Blanc are two 2024 releases that are absolutely singing. A blend of younger vine fruit and 50+ year old vines, the younger vines came from cuttings sourced from the famed 100+ year old Smart Vineyard Grenache. Hand-picked and gently pressed, a pretty rose gold appearance greets the eye. Some time on lees has built a delightful textural interest. Highlighted by a red apple crunch, fresh red currants and freeze-dried raspberries swoop and sit front and centre. White cherries and pomegranate muse with a delicious strawberries and cream textural detail" - QWine Reviews

On the nose, notes of ripe citrus, red berries, and hints of stone fruit are complemented by floral aromatics. The palate has flavours of blood orange, pomegranate, red currant,s and guava. There is a backbone of fine acidity, complemented by some minerality, and a lingering finish.

It’s the perfect pairing for a salt and pepper calamari with garlic aioli and a squeeze of lemon. Alternatively, pair alongside steamed fish with ginger.
