The 2024 Ox Hardy Blewitt Springs Grenache is a vibrant McLaren Vale red, crafted from old bush vines in Blewitt Springs, showcasing a modern, expressive style focused on purity, freshness and site character. Sourced primarily from 40-year-old vines and matured in seasoned French oak, it reflects a warm vintage with bright fruit and refined structure. The nose is lively and aromatic, showing raspberry, cranberry and red cherry, layered with notes of blood orange, spice and subtle savoury nuances.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a juicy, energetic texture and fine, dusty tannins. Red fruit, white pepper and gentle spice are balanced by fresh acidity, leading to a long, vibrant and moreish finish. The style is bright, lifted and elegant, offering a lighter, more perfumed expression of Grenache with excellent drinkability and finesse.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great-value, modern Grenache and a perfect choice for customers who enjoy lighter, aromatic reds like Pinot Noir. Best served slightly chilled and enjoyed now or over the next 5–7 years. Ideal with roasted vegetables, grilled meats or Mediterranean dishes.
