Description

Clarendon Hills classify Romas Grenache as a "Grand Cru" level in their rankings - one down from Astralis ("1er Grand Cru") and the same level as Piggott Range Syrah.

Reviews:

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate – 95 points

The 2005 Grenache Romas Vineyard delivers more complexity than the Onkaparinga, both aromatically and on the palate. An enticing perfume of damp earth, truffle, clove, black cherry, and blackberry is followed by a full-bodied, powerful, structured wine which will need a decade to reveal its full potential. Although it oozes with fruit and can be enjoyed now, it merits extended cellaring.

Josh Reynolds (Vinous) – 94 points

Saturated ruby. Room-filling aromas of strawberry preserves, raspberry, kirsch, Asian spices and floral oils. Densely packed red and dark berry flavors are framed by supple tannins but seem to overwhelm them, with a sweet vanilla bean quality adding further complexity. Finishes with outstanding depth, precision and length, leaving palate-staining raspberry in its wake.
