2024 Samuel's Gorge Grenache X 6 bottles

The 2024 Samuel's Gorge Grenache is a beautifully perfumed McLaren Vale Grenache sourced from a selection of dry-grown old vines, some up to 80 years of age, rooted in the sandy soils of Blewitt Springs and surrounding vineyards. Naturally fermented with minimal intervention, the wine captures the purity and elegance that have made Grenache the cornerstone of Samuel's Gorge. The nose is lifted and expressive, revealing raspberry, wild strawberry and cherry layered with rose petal, white pepper, fresh herbs and a subtle amaro-like spice.

On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins, vibrant acidity and exceptional freshness. Juicy red berry fruit is complemented by blood orange, savoury herbs and fine mineral notes, leading to a long, graceful finish with impressive balance and finesse. Bright, fragrant and effortlessly drinkable, this is a modern McLaren Vale Grenache that combines elegance with remarkable depth.

Ben’s Recommendation:
The 2024 Samuel's Gorge Grenache is a superb match for roast duck, grilled lamb, wood-fired pizza, charcuterie or mushroom dishes. Serve slightly chilled if desired, and enjoy now through 2034 as its savoury complexity and silky texture continue to evolve.
