Eperosa Stonegarden 1858 Vines Grenache 2020 (AC 95)

Halliday Winemaker of the Year 2021.

Andrew Caillard MW 95 points.
Medium crimson. Intense musky plum, strawberry, herb garden aniseed. Lovely musky plum, strawberry, orange rind, aniseed flavours and fine loose knit chalky textures. Superb mid-palate volume and mineral length. A flourish of mataro (3%) and shiraz (2%) gives the wine complexity and torque. Absolutely delicious. Drink now - 2032 14 % alc 95 points.
