Description

"A great Grenache with lifted red fruit flavours that are completely at the forefront. Think raspberry coulis, red currant jam and fresh strawberries. Lovely and soft tannins on the palate."

 

--------THE PRODUCER--------

BK Wines

BK Wines was established in 2007 by Brendon and Kirstyn Keys. The goal has been to create fabulous art. Beautiful, unique, sensuous, deceptively minimalist, enve- lope-pushing art. After learning from masters in NZ, Argentina and California, they trained their sights on the Adelaide Hills. With no pretentions to be somewhere it’s not, and few preconceived notions about what wine styles to expect, this is a place where non-conformity is the rule.

 

--------THE GRAPE--------

Grenache/Garnacha

Grenache is the French name, and Garnacha the Spanish, of this great red grape varietal. There are often heated discussions as to which country has the historical right to it but politics aside it is a widely popular and successful grape in the hottest of regions. Perhaps it is best known for being the lead grape in the blend of the wines of Chateauneuf-du-Pape.

 

--------THE REGION--------

Adelaide Hills

Adelaide Hills is one of the cooler wine regions in South Australia and is producing some exciting wines!
