Bleasdale Langhorne Creek Grenache 2023

Gold-winning, 94pt, Superb Value "meticulous" (Halliday) Grenache from the brilliant Bleasdale. "Every year, Bleasdale puts out an incredible number of beautiful wines. Every year, it is a contender for our winery of the year, and when you pick up a wine like this, it's easy to see why. This wine is meticulous. If it was sitting an exam, it would get an A for flavour, texture and finish. It tastes of assorted berries and woodsy spices, and charm is its middle name. 94pts. Great Value” Bleasdale is “one of the most historic wineries in Australia ... in 2015 celebrating 165 years of continuous winemaking by the direct descendants of the founding Potts family” (Halliday).
