The 2023 Running with Bulls Barossa Grenache is a vibrant and modern expression of Grenache from South Australia’s Barossa Valley, crafted in a lighter, unoaked style that highlights purity, freshness and drinkability. Inspired by Mediterranean winemaking, it focuses on bright fruit and aromatic lift rather than power. The nose is perfumed and expressive, with notes of raspberry, red cherry and strawberry, layered with rose petals, violets and subtle herbal spice.
On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied with juicy red fruit, fine, supple tannins and lively acidity. Flavours of plum, rhubarb and berries are complemented by gentle spice and a soft, silky texture, leading to a smooth, vibrant and refreshing finish. The style is bright, approachable and slightly chillable, offering a modern, easy-drinking take on Barossa Grenache.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is perfect for customers who enjoy lighter, fruit-forward reds with plenty of freshness. It’s versatile, food-friendly and great slightly chilled. Best enjoyed young. Ideal with tapas, grilled seafood, roasted vegetables or casual dining.
