Kabminye Grenache Carignan 2006
- Region Barossa Valley, SA
- Type Red
- Size 750ml
- Alcohol 15%
When handled properly, Grenache dominant blends can be lovely "BBQ" wines with refreshing acidity and spicy red fruits. The Kabminye Grenache Carignan still possesses a fair bit of character though. It's not a cerebral wine but there is still interest to be found amongst the sheer enjoyment of it all. Raspberries, glacé cherries, tar, earth and lacquer with a dash of white pepper. Light on the oak so you can slam it down fast. -JP

James Halliday
says:Bright, clear crimson-red; fragrant red fruit aromas and flavours, amazingly so given the wine spent 30 months in French oak, bolstered by fine, tight tannins. Screwcap.
James Halliday, The Wine Companion
says:Light but bright crimson; the bouquet and palate are also very fresh, with crisp red berry fruits impressive, and unexpected from Barossa Valley grenache (85%) at this age.
