Rote Kappelle Likes this wine: 90 points
April 27, 2023 - Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgh! I hate it when what you are getting from a wine or a vintage just is not what a lot of people with more expertise are getting. I can't get past a dissonant sourness in a lot of 2022 South East Oz wines, but as reviews are coming out in the press they seem far more positive than me. I feel like the salmon swimming against the stream and better palates are the Grizzly Bears just waiting to feed on me.
The positives with this wine are great price to quality ratio, lovely aromatics and no sign of portiness or that overly confectionary lolly water character that can really mar Grenache. Pomegranate is what I am most reminded of on the palate, there is very good line and length but this finishes sour and I just can't get away from it.
Given other reviews are not troubled by this, try for yourself - it may not trouble you at all.
