Waverley Hills Grenache Noir 2018

Grenache is the most widely planted red grape variety in the world and some of the best wines in the world have some Grenache in it. SIngle varietal Grenache wines are however hard to find. A bright red colour invites you to this medium bodied and easy drinking style of wine. Flavours of watermelon, red apples, apricots and white spices are integrated to give this wine a fresh complexity. The palate is fresh and long lasting with smooth and grippy tannis to make it the perfect food wine for all occasions.

Enjoy with cold meats, fresh bread and duck. It can also be enjoyed with seafood dishes like paella, tuna or crayfish.
