The ‘GSM blend’ has become an important style in the Barossa.
Max Allen explains this Barossa style as… “gutsy, spicy, leathery, complex and rustic barbecue red wines often made from very old vines”. The Grenache provides lighter, red fruit flavours as well as perfume and spice; Shiraz contributes richer fruit flavours and structure; while Mataro brings earthy and spicy elements and texture to the mix. The three varieties often seamlessly mesh together as a complete blend.
Sweetly ripe and fragrant, the bouquet shows dark plum, blackberry, smoked game, and floral aromas with a hint of dark chocolate. It’s equally appealing in the mouth, offering succulent fruit intensity backed by silky texture and elegant tannins, finishing long and flavoursome. At its best: now to 2033.
56% Grenache | 40% Shiraz | 4% Mataro
