MMAD Blewitt Springs Grenache 2021 (3 x 750ml)

"Its clarity matches its freshness.  10% whole bunches, 90% whole berry, 20 days in Italian made tulip-shaped concrete 4-tonne fermenters, matured 15 months in old French puncheons.  The highly fragrant blend of cherry and plum drives a long, fine, elegant palate/"
97 points, James Halliday

"The grenache vines in the MMAD vineyard were planted in 1939. That's quite a year, in world terms, to begin your life. This wine was aged in old oak; no new oak was used. Truly beautiful grenache. Sweet and ripe but savoury and, even, crunchy with it. Best of many worlds. Woodsmoke, herbs, raspberry, cloves and a sweet earth character. The presser mentions pomegranate and it's a good call; it beings that seed-like crunch to the wine. Tannin is ultra fine and the finish is noteworthy. Blewitt Springs is a great place to grow red wine grapes and here, again, it's off and away, in full voice."
95 points, Campbell Mattinson - Winefront

"Very bright, youthful translucent purple-red colour, with a complex and appealing fragrance that is spicy and layered, with raspberry, red-cherry fruit laced with dried-herb and spice notes that include clove and pepper. The palate is rich and elegant, medium to full bodied and gloriously supple in its texture. It's a young but quite sophisticated grenache: a superb drink already and surely has a bright future if cellared."
95 points, Huon Hooke - The Real Review

"This 2021 Grenache is pure and layered; the silty tannins; the silty tannins are threaded through every aspect of the fruit in the mouth.  The acidity makes it almost ethereal.  The wine is supple, with notes of beetroot, bloodroot and raspberry pip.  Very impressive.  Very fine.  Nice density.  Great tannins - chalky.  The wine saw a combination of concrete and large format, old oak.  This is a supreme first release."
94 points, The Wine Advocate

"Lovely mild ripening conditions produced Grenache of great intensity.  There is a purity and a density, but also a lightness that belies the energy and power of the fruit.   The aromatics are intense and perfumed with notes of raspberry coulis, cinnamon and a hint of fennel seed which unfurl in the glass.  The grapes were mostly destemmed and fermented as whole berries in open concrete and stainless steel before ageing in used 500 litre puncheons."
