Vinrock McLaren Vale Grenache Shiraz Mataro

An impressive young McLaren Vale GSM that’s found a happy place between the plump berry fruits, glossy black plum and spice of young fruit and the finely textured structure and dark chocolate influence of subtle oak support. It finishes lively, spicy and endearing. No surprise to learn the great Michael Fragos of Chapel Hill fame is responsible for this skilful winemaking. $19 at Wine Experience.
