Attractive new-world Grenache. Typical, aye, but so damn well-made and not vulgar at all. Leather, liquorice, black cherry, vanilla, pine and guache. Unexpectedly high acidity, but it's balanced by well-integrated tannins and a silky texture. Nice.

About

Annexus Grenache is made from grapes sourced from 150+ years old low-yielding vines from Northern Barossa and Eden Valley. The wine is aged for a year in older hogsheads, so the oak impact is minimal. Only 250 cases produced.

4.0

I love those situations when you taste a wine with little knowledge about itself and its producer, so you have less expectations. Typical, but very well made Grenache from Barossa Valley. Fruit-forward, with lots of leather and licorice hints. Not overly complicated, but not vulgar.
