Why we’re crushing on South Australian grenache blends
We’re all for going solo, but life often gets more interesting when you bring friends along for the ride, mofos. That certainly goes for one of our favourite red wines – grenache. But, what about a grenache blend? Well, that's a party in a glass. Here's why South Australian grenache blends are so damn hip right now.
Chardonnay is the white wine for red drinkers. It may have fallen out of favour due to the excess of the 1980s, but the new wave of chardonnay has cemented its place as one of the great Australian styles. Whether it’s the leaner styles coming from the Yarra (elegance and citrus), or the fuller-bodied Hunter Valley beauts, to the icons of WA - the possibilities are endless.
