The fragrance of the Yalumba Samuel's Collection Barossa Bush Vine Grenache is saturated with brooding plum red fruits, dark cherries and perfumed berries.This is a defined wine showing the richness and concentration of the vintage. The palate isrichly textured, fleshy, round and supple, with a red juiciness that merges into velvety tannins.
Enjoy with a pork pie or miso roasted eggplant with tomatoes, dill, mint and black vinegar.

Wine Enthusiast Review:
This is an aromatic Grenache with a perfume of ripe strawberry and cranberry fruit and a little spice and florals. The palate is mid-weight, fresh and silky with succulence amid a powerful frame of spicy, granular tannins. Elegant, varietal and easy-drinking. -C.P.
