Willunga 100 Sheer Madness Blewitt Springs GSM 2024
£14.25
The wine
Lifted bright cherry and red berry with violet and rose florals and hints of red liquorice. The palate brims with dark cherry.
GSM is Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre, the southern Rhône blend that has become an Australian staple, each variety bringing perfume, weight and structure in turn. Each parcel was harvested and fermented separately in open fermenters for seven to ten days before gentle pressing. Blewitt Springs is the sandy, higher, cooler corner of McLaren Vale, and it has become the source of Australia most perfumed Grenache.
