Rusden Christine’s Vineyard Grenache 2023 (6 Bottles) Barossa Valley, SA

Rusden Christine’s Vineyard Grenache 2021 from Vine Vale in the Barossa is a beautifully aromatic, medium-bodied Grenache, showing the lift and finesse that deep Barossa sand can give old vines. It’s an inviting, red-fruited style rather than a heavy, jammy one, with a strong sense of place. The palate sits in true medium-bodied territory, with juicy red fruits, spice and a gently tart, amaro-like twist, wrapped in tight, fine tannins and fresh acidity that keep it feeling long, poised and savoury.
