2021 Les Amis

The 2021 season in Barossa was ideal. It marked the end of hot and dry conditions, the yields were healthy (thanks in no small part to the healthy 2020 rains in the season leading in to the 2021 growing season), and the conditions during the 2201 growing season were mild and dry. So here, the 2021 Les Amis Grenache is exuberant, with abundant sweet red fruit, and the oak almost emphasizes the sweetness in the red fruit, with scraped vanilla pod, sweet licorice, cracked fennel and tar. This is a superb wine that, if anything, will be better in a few years from now, despite being delicious today. 15% alcohol, sealed under natural cork.
