"Medium-deep ruby in color with a touch of brick, the 2002 Romas Vineyard Grenache offers ripe red currant and red cherry notes that are showing a little evolution, but not too much, plus a slight whiff of menthol and bay leaf. Still very young, this densely packed wine is ripe, rich and concentrated in the mouth and framed by medium-firm, very fine tannins through the long finish."

Renowned for powerful, richly fruited Shiraz, most famously from the Barossa Valley, alongside age-worthy Cabernet and cool-climate whites. A warm climate and old, ungrafted vines produce wines of generosity and depth.
Grenache, known as Garnacha in Spain, is a red grape that thrives in warm growing regions. Its wines often show strawberry and raspberry, with peppery spice and sometimes earthy notes. Styles range from fragrant, medium-bodied reds to rich, full-bodied wines with generous alcohol and a rounded texture, depending on the vineyard and winemaking. In France's southern Rhône Valley, Grenache is central to wines such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas, often blended with Syrah and Mourvèdre. It also produces distinctive single-variety wines in Spain and Australia. McLaren Vale and the Barossa Valley are particularly associated with old-vine Grenache, offering expressions that combine ripe fruit, spice and layered texture. Grenache's versatility extends beyond dry reds to rosÊ and sweet fortified wines. Vineyard conditions, crop levels and cellar choices shape its character, allowing it to deliver both fresh, approachable fruit and more concentrated, structured expressions. Its combination of generosity and adaptability makes it an important grape in both traditional regional blends and wines that showcase a single vineyard.
