The 2019 Signature Series McLaren Vale GSM is sweet in every respect (bar residual) and offers up a lively splay of red fruit, jubes and humbugs. The tannins are so fine as to be seamless, and the fruit is squishy and bright. This is not complex, but pleasurable. There is very little in the way of savory complexity, but for the price and the occasion, this is a great value wine. It's well made and glossy and severely decent. RRP $19 AUD. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
