Pikes The Assemblage Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre 750ml
Good winter rain allowed soil profiles to be full, giving the vines a great start to the growing season. A remarkably cool summer followed, providing perfect conditions for
healthy balanced vines. The long ripening period produced fruit with a perfect balance of good colour, high natural acidity and concentrated flavours. 100% Estate grown, “The Assemblage” is our Northern Rhone-inspired blend. Grenache brings the aromatic bright fruits and palate structure, Shiraz provides plush mid-palate and blue fruits, and Mourvedre provides dark fruits and spice.
TASTING NOTE
Medium cherry red. A bright fruit-forward bouquet featuring cherries, blueberries, raspberry liqueur and hints of chocolate. Reminiscent of black forest cake. As the wine opens up, spice and subtle charry oak aromas emerge. Medium-bodied, plush red fruits up front, continuing the theme. Soft elegant tannins and hints of spice provide a seamless palate roll from start to finish.
Beautifully balanced.
Alc: 14.0%
