Yangarra GSM 2017
McLaren Vale, South Australia, AustraliaHow good is the new Australia? Plenty good, maybe even scary good. Few GSM I have experienced have the mouth presence and cushioned weight that is the perfect bed for a wine packed full of fragrant old bush vine grenache (60 percent) planted in 1946. The remainder is 22 percent shiraz, and 18 percent mourvèdre. The result is an aromatic layered wine that is more red than black, with licorice and peppercorn flecks in the finish. It’s the balance and mouthfeel that attracts. You can serve this with any favourite wood-fired entrée, from pizza to steak.Tasted: 23 March 2021Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $43.99 | 750ml | select private wine shops |
