2021 Charles Melton Nine Popes GSM 750ml

Lovely deep colour. Nice bright crimson edge to the colour. Opens on nose with a delightful spicy licorice all sorts amalgam of sweet perfume and spice, although 50% new oak was used, it remains in the background as a support to the exotic aromatics. Licorice and meat stock flavours lead into a plush rounded structure, with an excellent volume of finely wrought tannins to help shepherd this wine many years into the future.Varietal: Grenache, Shiraz, MataroRegion: Krondorf, Eden Valley, Rowland FlatAlcohol: 14.5%
