St. John's Road Grenache The Resilient

A lovely wine. So sad that I only have one bottle left as the subtle tannins indicate there’s still more time to enjoy.

This is the type of wine why I love Grenache. Light bodied but soft herbaceous flavours full of berry, liquorice and plum. Just a beautiful unpretentious drop.

Enjoyed with a charcuterie board, plum, strawberry and raspberry as well as floral flavours make this a lovely medium to light bodied drinking wine.

At first blush I was a little disappointed as the colour was very light and pinotish. Bouquet was also somewhat subdued. However on the palate the flavours came through with strawberry and a hint of spice. Tannins subdued but still there. Interesting to see how it will develop.

Not too bad, perhaps needed some more time on the rqck

Barossa be consumed (Carriageworks, Redfern) : Pretty, strawberry and red berry, a little spice. Jubey and pretty on the palate as well. Fruit driven, friendly. Nice.
