Gemtree Wines Small Batch Grenache Sbe 2021
Trust your Taste
A hint of citrus peel lifts this restrained, textured Grenache. Richness and depth come through its mouthfeel, with a composed, lingering finish. Try it with flavourful food if you enjoy red wines that offer texture without overtly lush fruit.

Ripe fruit character. This is not a sugar-sweetness rating.
