A new addition to the Hayes portfolio, the diversity of their Grenache wines from across the Barossa (plus one from McLaren Vale) is quite something. Wonderfully aromatic, this is captivating from the outset.
The Prayer Garden is a small site, just less than a hectare, that survived the wretched vine pull of the mid 1980s.
Purple and blue fruits plus glorious aromas of raspberries and blueberries, you can't help but be immediately hooked. It slides through the mouth with ease. It's that yacht on calm water just sliding through as you marvel it's glory. The fruit gets a little deeper and more complex with the more air it sees. Delicate spices are carefully sprinkled throughout leaving a long wake that laps at your feet. Silty tannins have the last word. Slowly drying and drawing a moreish factor along for the ride. Just beautiful.
