Jane Staples rated this wine as 92/100 with the following review:

From Mclaren Vale, S Australia, aged in old French and American oak for 12-21 mos. Seductive ripe blackberry, cassis, vanilla and hint of tobacco aromatics. The rich palate sings out a mouth full of ripe dark berry flavour and a lingering finish.
Tasted July 2016




Natalie's Review

d'Arenberg D'arry's Original Shiraz Grenache 2013, Mclaren Vale, South Australia, Australia: Another gorgeous vintage for this benchmark Australian red wine. This red wine is savoury, dark and delicious with chary, toasty oak and black fruit. Full-bodied and smooth with loads of sensory pleasure and made by one of Australia's most respected producers. Pair this wine with a pepper steak. Drink: 2015-2018. 942904 14.50% XD 750 mL  $19.95 Score: 92/100. July 23, 2016 Top Rated Red Wine. Heavenly Hamburger Wine  Full Review

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
