The 2023 Brothers At War Peace Keeper Grenache is a vibrant expression of Barossa and Eden Valley Grenache, crafted from old-vine fruit that highlights the variety's elegance and purity. Produced from hand-picked fruit with 40% whole bunch fermentation, the wine is matured for six months on lees in a ceramic egg and large French oak foudre, adding texture while preserving its bright fruit character. The nose is lifted and fragrant, offering aromas of red berries, raspberries, pomegranate, delicate florals and savoury spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky texture, vibrant acidity and fine, velvety tannins. Juicy raspberry and pomegranate flavours are layered with subtle spice and savoury complexity, leading to a long, balanced and elegant finish. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, the wine reflects a minimal-intervention approach that showcases the freshness and character of Grenache from these renowned South Australian vineyards.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for customers who enjoy modern Australian Grenache with bright red fruit, savoury complexity and refined texture. Pair it with herb-roasted lamb, grilled pork, duck breast, charcuterie or Mediterranean-inspired dishes. Enjoy it now for its youthful vibrancy, or cellar for 8–10 years to develop additional savoury depth and complexity.
