Paxton 2015 Grenache (McLaren Vale)

Country: Australia /
Variety: Grenache South Australia
Winery: Paxton / McLaren Vale

This wine combines elegance and power, complexity and drinkability. Orange rind, strawberry, flowers, Chinese Five Spice and a hint of raw meat all dance together on the pretty, lifted nose. The palate is satiny and leans more towards tart cranberry, with the spice character really shining, followed by superfine but sturdy tannins. Pair with roast duck, beef teriyaki, or a veggie stir fry.
