Yalumba 2021 Bush Vine Grenache 750ml

Yalumba does grenache very well, from its entry-level wines to its flagship Tri-Centenary offering. The Samuels collection makes use of one of the Barossa's greatest resources: old bush-vine grenache. It's perfumed and lifted with spicy, plummy fruits, a splash of raspberry coulis and plenty of purple floral and gingery spice tones. Purely fruited with plenty of space and inherent drinkability, it's great to see grenache has become 'the next big thing', and for all its pure, joyous fruit, it's easy to see why. Great value here.
