Vanguardist Grenache Mourvèdre Rosé 2022

Rosé Blend | McLaren Vale, Australia

"Pale spicy, dusty and gently earthy, fennel and pink grapefruit, redcurrant, fruit a little down low, texture up. Very zesty, a lot of pink grapefruit and bloody orange, tangy, quite bony, fine dusty texture and grip. though a gentle creaminess to it, and savoury too, lots of sappy and citrus flavours on a long finish. It seems to be built for ageing, though you can serve it now too, cool but not cold! Drink: 2024-2034" Gary Walsh TWF 94 Points

Vanguardist ‘MVG’ Grenache 2020

Grenache | McLaren Vale, Australia

Another superb wine taking Aussie Grenache to a whole new level! Excellent texture, lovely fine,plush, front mid-palate tannin. Spiced, cinnamon, cardamon, beautifully layering in earthy and savoury secondaries. Like all his wines this has an exceptional core of juicy fruit. So much fun to be had. Hints of pepper and violets wrap around it. Beautiful oak handling and exceptional élévage.

Vanguardist ‘MVG’ Grenache 2021

Grenache | South Australia, Australia

Another superb wine taking Aussie Grenache to a whole new level! "Raspberry steeped in liqueur, plenty of perfume, lots of spice, almond paste. Medium-bodied, raspberry and subtle earthiness, firm pumice stone tannin, lots of crunch, hazelnut and crisp red berries, very bright and long. Some tea and tobacco savoury stuff.

Vanguardist Mourvèdre 2021

Mourvèrdre | McLaren Vale, Australia

"Plenty of spice, white pepper, blue flowers, red and blue fruits, a subtle honey nut and grilled meat character. It’s bright, all boysenberry and blueberry, only medium-bodied, crisp and lively, a slatey/mineral character to acidity, fine dusty concrete tannin, sappy dried herb stuff, pulling crunchy and red fruited on a long finish. Wonderful level of energy and vibrant feel here. It showed no sign of tiring after being open for two days either. Drink: 2024 - 2032+" Gary Walsh TWF 95 Poi

Michael's description of it having power, structure, and finesse rings true to form for all his wines, broader feedback from those who have tasted it affirms this. “Robert Rende helped his father plant this vineyard (Blewitt Springs) back in 1969, and now lives there. It was a sin
