The 2024 Commune of Buttons Sable Syrah Grenache is a bright, perfumed Rhône-inspired blend from Jasper Button and Sophie Thomson, made from organically farmed Adelaide Hills fruit. Crafted with a minimal-intervention approach, the wine focuses on freshness, spice and savoury drinkability rather than weight or oak. The nose shows red plum, blackberry and raspberry alongside violet, white pepper, dried herbs and subtle earthy spice. There’s a lifted floral character and crunchy aromatic freshness that gives the wine plenty of energy.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with juicy dark fruit, fine silky tannins and vibrant acidity. Fresh and supple, with savoury spice and a gently herbal finish balancing the wine’s bright fruit profile beautifully.
Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2024 Commune of Buttons Sable Syrah Grenache is a beautifully energetic modern Australian Rhône-style blend — fragrant, savoury and highly drinkable. More medium-bodied and fresh than richer South Australian GSM styles, making it perfect slightly chilled with lamb, pizza, charcuterie or grilled vegetables. Drink now through 2031+.
