The Grenache grape variety

steep glacial terrace in the Bendigo sub-region of Central Otago

brioche and yeasty lees dominating ripe sauvignon blanc characters

However these are all value for money

This cuvee is crafted with almost unbelievably uncompromising care at every stage of the vinification process

Ministry of Clouds Mclaren Vale Shiraz 1500ml 2020 freycinet-vineyard The Grenache grape varietyThe Ministry of Clouds duo source fruit from a dry grown Blewitt Springs vineyard, and their own Onkaparinga Rocks plot, as they look to combine classic old school richness with a modern, svelte approach to McLaren Vale Shiraz. The result is a rich red full of punchy dark plum, blackberry, and liquor cherry flavours, with some supporting oak. It is an enticing, yet deft wine.
