The 2023 Bleasdale "The Wild Fig" is a vibrant Langhorne Creek GSM blend, offering a fresh, fruit-driven and highly approachable style. The nose shows blueberry, plum and dark cherry, layered with dried herbs, spice and a touch of liquorice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a juicy, supple texture and soft tannins. Bright dark fruit and savoury spice are balanced by fresh acidity, leading to a smooth, easy-drinking finish. The blend of Shiraz (depth), Grenache (juiciness) and Mourvèdre (structure) creates a well-rounded and versatile wine designed for immediate enjoyment.
