Yalumba Samuels Collection Bush Vine Grenache 2023
Barossa, Australia
FIVE STARS 93/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
FIVE STARS 93/100 | Candice Chow, Raymond Chan Wine Reviews
Yalumba Samuel's Collection Bush Vine Grenache is one of the boss's new favourite sub$25 Barossa reds - a wonderfully middleweight wine that is loaded with personality and soft, slurpy, easy drinking charm. Think of it like a cross between gutsy Central Otago Pinot Noir and lush Barossa Shiraz and you're on the right track.
It's a richly flavoured style but more in the savoury red fruit spectrum - so it provides a lovely counterpoint to the blockbusters the Barossa is best know for. If you're looking for a general purpose red that stands out from the pack but is a sure fire winner, this is one of the safest bets in the market.

Tasting Notes
The winery writes "Deep in colour with a bright garnet hue. This fruit dominant wine opens with lively cherry, raspberry and
red forest fruits layered over floral rose notes. Time in the glass reveals intriguing aromas of Mediterranean herbs, nettle and anise. Medium-bodied and juicy with superb balance between fruit and spice offering freshness and softness with an underlying power supported by mouth-coating tannins."
Candice Chow writes "Medium ruby-red, even colour throughout. The nose is gently full, with aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry, bramble, floral and anise. Medium-full bodied, aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry and blueberry intertwined with sweet floral and a touch of anise and spice. Juicy acidity flows smoothly on a silky palate, unfolding subtle spices and lends a long, graceful finish. This old bush vine Grenache is elegant with unmistakable varietal characters, silky mouthfeel and strength."
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Charming and elegantly perfumed, the bouquet shows sweet plum, raspberry, violet and warm spice aromas. The palate displays silky-smooth mouthfeel combined with fleshy texture and finely melded tannins, finishing lingering and velvety."
