The brilliance of the Barossa 2021 vintage is front and centre with this sublime Grenache. Coming off the Hayes sustainably farmed organic vineyard, damn this is impressive.
Let it breathe and then let it seep into your veins. Raspberry and red fruits consume you. Delicate touches of purple flowers and super smooth spices waltz through the mouth. Dangerously moreish, its weight and mouthfeel are pitched perfectly. Medium-bodied red wines are very much on-trend at the moment and this Grenache zeros right in on that sweet spot. Admittedly, I kept drinking the darn thing rather than taking note - enough said really. A beautiful wine that ensures the top-ups keep coming, it's irresistible really. Go here.
The Hayes Family Wines Estate Shiraz, Mataro and Grenache are due for release 1 June 2022.
Drink to eight years.
