Jericho Grenache 2023

 

I was in McLaren Vale last week and I spotted the Jericho vineyards just over the ridge from the famed Upper Tintara vineyard. This Jericho site would be roughly two kilometres from the famed High Sands vineyard. There is still a fair bit of sand around these parts too mind you. 

Bright in the glass, this Jericho Grenache is gorgeously floral and attractive. I just want to dive in.

Dried red petals and violets explode from the glass. "Come at me," they say. There is an unmistakable vibe and joy that leads a path to delightful drinking. Red cherries, vibrant raspberries, freeze-dried strawberries with some dark chocolate and orange peel. But as much as the aroma profile stands out, the fruit skips along without wanting to divulge too much depth. Coming off young vines, this is no surprise, but the future is exciting if this is the starting point. All that aside, you will walk away grinning with this under your wing for an easy drink.

Drink to five years.
