Kalleske Old Vine Grenache 2007
Made by Kalleske in Australia (region: Barossa Valley)
.
A dry, still, red wine with 15.5% alcohol tasted on 4th Jul 2009.
Grape: Grenache
Quality: Very Good
Value: A Little Excessive
Cost: Usually between $45.00 - $45.00.
Looks: Black red colour. Massive looking.
Smells: Hot, warm fruit. Black berry smell - no red fruit in this wine on the nose!
Feels: Heavy.
Tastes: This is a seriously big wine, but it is not a complete brute. There is some nice grip in the tannins, and some refreshing zip in the centre of the wine combined with the dark massive fruit and cocoa/coffee. The finish is almost meaty and very long with the inevitable heat. A remarkable wine that is already quite complex. Perfect winter wine!
Possible retailers: Cellar Door / Web Site.
