d'Arenberg The Custodian Grenache 2019 (Australia) Rated 91WE

Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 91
An open-knit perfume of red cherry compote, white pepper and savory herbal nuances leads to a palate that's both fresh and powerful, sculpted with muscular, slightly drying tannins. A well-built and well-priced Grenache with polish and balance.

Wine Tasting Notes
The first look displays primary fruit characters of mulberry, blueberry and plum. Deeper inspection however starts to reveal more complex layers, conjuring images of aniseed, fennel and coriander seed. The sweet and savory fruits are laced by fine silken tannins which lead to a super persistent finish, again displaying a delightful fruitiness, accompanied by more savory, cedary, baking spice like notes. Simply put, this wine is liquid velvet.
