Tasting Notes:
2022 Clarry’s GSM is bright red in colour with purple edges. Aromatically it is vivid with lifted spice notes, raspberry compote, violets, toffee apple, strawberry ice-cream, fresh flowers and a touch of earth. These brilliant red fruits continue to the succulent palate. It is medium-bodied, soft and rounded but with a fine definition and crunch giving freshness and balance throughout. There are commanding red and blue fruits along with a chewy earthiness adding complexity. Tannins are noticeable without intruding, providing a muscular backbone to the radiant fruit. A long finish completes this very drinkable wine. Clarry’s is an approachable, fruit-driven and opulent GSM that is best enjoyed now or over the next five years.

Grape Varietal(s):
Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro

Awards & Accolades:
“This is excellent GSM, by virtue of the attention paid to tannic virtuosity. A slick of saline pucker and chalky dryness, all in the name of restraint and savoriness. An apt frame for kirsch, clove, anise and tea tree accents, all massaged into a nourishing, full-bodied, eminently fresh and approachable whole. This is really rather delicious. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap.” – James Suckling, 92 points
