Huntington Estate Special Reserve Grenache 2022

 

Tim Stevens has jumped on the Grenache bandwagon and found a comfy chair. A long time fan of the variety, he has planted a heap more vines in recent years. This is a juicy number and a damn fine take on the variety. 

The Barossa and McLaren Vale steal the Grenache limelight, and rightly so, but there are pockets here and there that stand tall. Check out this Mudgee version as an example.

Flirtatious and vibrant, it's all red cherries, rhubarb and red apples. Some red plum depth and dried petal prettiness add to its charm. Finely spiced, there's a gravelly/clay-like tannin that hangs. The energy from the acidity is hard to miss and really keeps things moving to a sure beat. Great gear this. 

Drink to five years.
