Dandelion Vineyards Menagerie of the Barossa Grenache - Shiraz - Mataro 2019 (750ml) Recioto della Valpolicella Classico and topography"This slurpy, rich wine is a meld of 80% of grenache, thankfully but a smidgeon of shiraz, alongside a dollop of the more interesting mataro (5%). Hewn of fruit from abutting blocks and loosely, thus, a field blend. Delicious. Kirsch and smoked meat notes are corralled by some spicy whole bunch revelry. The finish is long, sappy and nicely pliant. The oak a pillar of support, giving direction." Ned Goodwin, Halliday Wine Companion
