2019 GMH Family Selection Red Blend

GMH

South Australia

Story: This Red Blend is put together at the family dinner table. All the parcels of wine available for this wine are put on the table and a final blend is decided.
The 2019 vintage consists of 60% Shiraz, 26% Merlot, 9% Tannat, 2.5% Durif and 2.5% Petit Verdot.

Vintage: The 2019 growing season started with mild weather and below average rainfall. Some late spring rain provided a bit of relief from the dry conditions. A heatwave in January was luckily too early in the ripening cycle to cause any damage to the fruit. This was followed by a very mild and dry finish to the vintage, allowing good hang time and flavour development to the smaller than average crop

Nose: The nose offers aromas of plums, blackberries and a hint of dried herbs.

Palate: The palate is bright and luscious with vibrant fruit, followed by a tight and elegant finish.

Pairing: This wine is fantastic with a range of dishes, try it with lasagna or a weekend BBQ.

Cellaring: Drink now
