Dandelion Vineyards Treasure Trove McLaren Vale Grenache
Serafino McLaren Vale Reserve Grenache
Medium bodies, with a long even bright palate. This brightness is super silky with spice, violets and plums. A fruit forward style with beautiful complexity.
d'Arenberg The Derelict Vineyard Grenache
The nose is teeming with red fruits and florals.Raspberry and cherry with a hint rose and violet. The true giveaways to the vintage however, lie in the distinct white pepper and spice notes. The palate follows suit with bright red fruit and spice.
Yangarra Old Vine Grenache
While certainly lighter, more elegant, and a different style to that of some of previous years, the 2011 vintage is one of the greatest Grenache vintages Yangarra has ever produced. The white pepper spice is telling of such a cool year, and is married with bright cherries and raspberry alongside complex hints of liquorice, chicory and cured meats. The tannins are fine and delicate, and the acidity alike.
Maxwell Four Roads Old Vine Grenache
This wonderful red wine flaunts a deep plum colour. The well balanced bouquet offers fragrances of red fruits and raspberries enhanced by a gentle touch of herbs. This delightful nose is followed by mouth-filling flavours of savoury fruit, complex spice and subtle vanilla oak on the palate. Integrated with fine tannins, the resulting drink is very approachable. This wine has been specially crafted to be enjoyed upon release, but can also be cellar for 3 to 7 years for later drinking.
The Other Wine Co Grenache
Fresh, vibrant and spicy. Super fresh and intense raspberries, rhubarb, sage and violets; all packed into a medium bodied wine. The Other Wine Co. is a new venture that aims to make wines from the right grape, grown in the right place. That may sound obvious, but it's a principal honoured more "in the breach than the observance." Really good matches of variety and place take a long time to become established, but when they do, the proof is in the glass. The Other Wine Co. wines are entirely vinified and bottled at Shaw + Smith in Balhannah. The wines are "other" partly because they give the winemakers a chance to lay with varieties and regions that don't fit into Shaw + Smith. They are also an "other" perspective from so many wines that favour over-ripeness and oak instead of freshness and balance, and power over drinkability. These are made to drink and enjoy. That's it!

Where Grenache SBO (oak barrel maturation) is upfront and bold, Grenache SBE shows restraint and focus, with a textural weight that defines its identity.
Hugh Hamilton The Disrupter Grenache
Starting South Australia’s wine industry is disruptive. Pushing little sticks of Grenache into ground surrounded by gums and hoping they take and make wine is pretty disruptive too. This though is the Hamilton legacy, and this is a wine that celebrates every sweet disruption of the everyday.
Gemtree Small Batch Oak McLaren Vale Grenache
This rare Grenache has a beautiful perfume lift of wild boysenberry, rhubarb and pomegranate. On the palate, Grenache SBO is bursting with vibrant berry flavours of red cherry and raspberry. Deliciously creamy and focused with soft plush fruit that entwines the purity of Grenache
