TASTING NOTES

Spinifex is the brainchild of winemaker Peter Schell and his partner Magali Gely, a duo widely recognised for redefining the modern Barossa. Described by wine writer Max Allen as “the best new-wave Barossa wine company of the 21st century,” Spinifex offers a distinctly European sensibility fused with old-vine Barossa heritage. With a strong emphasis on Mediterranean varieties and a blending-focused approach, their wines are celebrated for their elegance, authenticity and sense of place. A finalist for Winemaker of the Year in 2019, Schell continues to steer Spinifex with a deep commitment to craftsmanship and regional expression.

Grenache sourced from the Barossa's west (Moppa), north (Ebenezer) and east (Bethany). I really like this nimble, beautifully detailed little grenache. It's packed with ripe raspberry, red apple, redcurrant and cranberry fruit tones with exotic spice, gingerbread, earth, red plum and rose petals. Light, airy and sapid with a glorious, saliva-inducing sour cherry acid line and an effortless drinkability.
