2022 Dandelion Vineyards Treasure Trove Grenache

Deep dark red black colour with a dark red hue. Lifted dark raspberry, ripe cherry and liquorice scents flow through the olfactory senses with some dried herb and vanillin spice notes also evident. Juicy dark raspberry, cherry, liquorice and vanillin spice flavours carry ample richness and a lush feel across the mid weighted palate. Flanked across the back half are dried herb and pepper elements. Velvety tannins with a finish that’s long, succulent and spicy.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Alc. 14%

Other Reviews…..
From the estate Firehawk Farm; two-thirds destemmed and crushed over whole bunches for a seven-day ferment, then pressed to mainly seasoned oak for 12 months' maturation. A spicy rendition of grenache, this is also quite deep, though very much lifted and respectful of the integrity of fruit flavour. Davidson plum, baked raspberry tart, rhubarb, white pepper and celery salt, cinnamon and clove. It’s got some moody depth and bright fruitfulness, the tannins dryly assertive. Drink by 2028.
