Red Blends
Charles Melton La Belle Mere Barossa GSM 2021
Nice bright, medium depth to the colour. Lovely clarity. Initial pepper and spice upon first look, with a sweeter Grenache musk coming to the fore with some air. A touch of black cherry as well. A hint of sweet cedar coming from the oak but not overpowering with only 5% being new. Lively palate structure but not missing the traditional plushness and velvet finish from the "sur lie" maturation. A wine from a vintage that has provided wonderful cellaring structure.
Alc/Vol: 14.5%
