Description Alex Russell is turning out some exceptional wines under his Russell & Suitor label. The reds are juicy, delicious and quite moreish, much like the 92pt Franca's Vineyard Grenache. It's from the Riverland, with just the right amount of sunshine for this thin-skinned varietal to tan its way to aromatic red fruit bliss. Beautiful aromas of strawberry, red cherry and spice are reflected on the palate and carry it through to a lovely, textured finish. A terrific long lunch wine. "Cherry, menthol, orange peel, red liquorice, cranberry and spice. Bloody and tart with a zing of acidity and both parts sweet and savoury, dry and lush to the palate. Fabulous tannin, flexible and fine, wrapping around the fruit and with excellent length and texture... 92pts" (David Walker Bell, WineFolio).
