MAXWELL FOUR ROADS GRENACHE 2022

Uniquely McLaren Vale, Grenache was the backbone of the wine industry there for over a century with a recent renaissance in style making Grenache the most sought after grape in the entire region.

Maxwell's Grenache vines have grown for over 90 years on a contoured hill, and have seen tastes change from rich, sweet fortifieds to this modern, aromatic and spicy medium-bodied Grenache.

93 points - James Suckling, Ned Goodwin - 'The craftsmanship here is on the upward trajectory. Clunk a years ago. Class, today. Delicious grenache devoid of pretense. Kirsch, pomegranate, molasses and aniseed, with a waft of regional menthol and dried thyme across the back end. The tannins, a firm enough the spindle that binds, compresses, releases and corrals any excess of fruit. Lovely drinking, barely nudging full-weight. Drink or hold.'
