2022 Marli Russell by Mount Mary RP2
A blend of 55% Grenache, 30% Shiraz, 10% Cinsault and 5% Mourvedre. Deep dark red core with black shaded edges and a dark red hue. Peppery red raspberry and red liquorice aromas emanate from the glass complimented by some fresh herb, scorched earth, dried meat and subtle graphite notes. Light to medium bodied with a fresh, elegant feel, vibrant red cherry and red liquorice fruits are featured over a subtle scorched earth, fresh herb and pepper back drop. Fine yet sculpting tannins with a bright and savoury conclusion.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.
Alc. 14%
Other Reviews…..
A blend of 60/25/10/5% grenache/shiraz/mourvèdre/cinsault. The grenache spends 16 months in 1600L seasoned foudre, the rest matured in barriques (15% new for the shiraz). A light, bright crimson. Perfumed with ripe raspberries, kirsch, incense and garrigue. Red fruited and gently fleshy on the palate before closing with silky tannins on the smooth, satisfying finish. Drink by 2029.
