Note di degustazione
Shimmering ruby. Vibrant, sharply focused red fruit and floral scents are complicated by peppery spice, botanical herb and smoky mineral notes. Juicy and energetic on the palate, showing strong, spicy lift to its intense raspberry, cherry, lavender pastille and spicecake flavors, which deepen with air. Finishes sweet, seamless and impressively long, with polished tannins adding shape and gentle grip.

Grenache. Produced at Rusden. Mid ruby. Fresh and sweet – the juicy side of Grenache. No great depth of colour but it's not short of alcohol. Nor of apparent sweetness. Quite hefty but lots of fun. (JR)
The medium-ruby 2017 Sucette is another fine example of sand-grown Barossa Valley Grenache. Boasting seductive, rose-like aromas, hints of five-spice powder and a deep base of cherry fruit, it's supremely silky in texture, gently filling the mouth with gossamer goodness, then slowly fading into lingering notes of cracked pepper, star anise and even a bit of ginger. While not overly tannic, it's concentrated and balanced, with the potential to drink well for at least 5-7 years.
