Grenache sourced from the 1949-planted Hillside vineyard in Lyndoch. Bright crimson in the glass with aromas of red cherry, doris plum and stone fruits. Hints of star anise, ginger cake, cola, fennel, quince paste, dried citrus rind, light amaro herbs and clover blossom. The texture and fruit flow here are spot on. Supple and graceful, silty tannins slide in and make their presence felt on the plummy finish. DAVE BROOKES, www.winecompanion.com.au
