Lifted and perfumed, showing cranberry, raspberry and red cherry. Subtle blue florals and a hint of citrus zest add freshness and aromatic appeal.

Juicy and fruit-driven, delivering red plum, cherry and berry fruits with a lively, approachable style. Fresh acidity keeps everything bright, while a touch of spice adds interest.
🍈 Texture & Finish
Light to medium-bodied with soft, supple tannins. The finish is smooth and easy, with lingering red fruit and a gentle savoury edge.
🍇 Overall Style
A modern Australian Grenache—fresh, vibrant and highly drinkable. Made in a fruit-forward, easy-going style with minimal oak influence, focusing on purity and approachability.
🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with charcuterie, roast chicken, pork, grilled vegetables or pizza. Also ideal slightly chilled for relaxed, casual drinking.
🥂 BBD Verdict
A seriously easy-drinking Clare Valley Grenache—bright, juicy and full of charm.
Perfect for mixed dozens when you want a lighter red that still delivers flavour and versatility.
