Reviews and Ratings

Carolyn Hetke rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Grenache is most often available to us in a classic Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre blend but more and more we are seeing Grenache stepping out on its own. This 100% Grenache is inviting and approachable. Rich ripe raspberries waft up from the glass and carry over to dominate the palate. Full bodied and smooth. Tannins are very fine on the extended finish. This one is going to be easy to love - you won't even miss the Syrah or Mourvedre! Try it with BBQ pork or kebabs. Tasted June 2019.
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Lovely and interesting! Aromas of ripe raspberries, clove, dried herbs and a hint of orange zest. Full bodied and smooth with bright acidity. Lots of bright red fruit on the palate and a hint of red grapefruit on the finish. Enjoy with grilled chicken or pork with a zesty marinade.
Daniel O'Keefe rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

Sporting a light red colour, this Grenche boasts ripe wild strawberry, red plum, and red cherry aromas. Mild tannins with bright acidity. Perfect for pizza, this fruit-driven red will also match Asian cuisine on the mildly spicy side.
Zonte's Footstep Love Symbol 2016 is produced from 100% Grenache. Look for ripe red berry, bright cherry, underbrush, white pepper and dark chocolate flavours on this savoury red from the Mclaren Vale wine region. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
