Clarendon Hills' Romas cru represents one of the finest examples of Grenache from Australia, IMO. Have enjoyed many different vintages of this wine over the years and it is consistently good.
Robust black raspberry and kirsch with beautiful mocha espresso notes on the palate. Complex bouquet of lavender and sous bois. Lengthy finish that captivates. Aged in 30% new French oak that has integrated seamlessly.
This was my first foray with the Muga Prado Enea bottling, and frankly it was somewhat of an underwhelming experience. Quite thin in body without much elegance. Perhaps too young at this stage? 70% Tempranillo, 20% Garnacha, with dollops of Mazuelo and Graciano. Light-bodied cherry fruit with accents of smoke, leather and pepper.
