Other Reviews….
Exceptional colour; the twins are the Greenock Rise and Trial Hill Vineyards, the source of the grenache; the wine has stunning drive and vigour, characters rarely encountered with this blend. The dark plum and black cherry flavours have a twist of licorice and spicy tannins to close. Exceptional value.
