Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2013 The Derelict Vineyard Grenache has a spicy, incense laced nose over a core of kirsch and raspberry preserves plus a peppery hint. Full-bodied with a solid structure of velvety tannins and plenty of freshness, it fills the mouth with berry coulis and cracked pepper flavors, finishing long.

The dense red currant and raspberry flavors offer a pretty, perfumed accent, with notes of fresh pepper and loamy earth. The tannins provide some chew on the finish. Drink now through 2029. 88 cases imported.??–MW??Region: Australia / McLaren Vale Select to Add
