Description Tscharke says he believes Grenache “actually looks better without the oak”. “There’s a freshness and delicacy and prettiness to these wines, which elevates the fruit,’’ he says. Tscharke’s aptly named Grenache uses fruit from the Marananga sub-region of Barossa, and could have been made by fairies: pretty aromas of rose petals, cherries and ripe strawberries lift from the glass, complemented by savoury hints. The palate surprises with its seriousness: concentrated strawberry flavours give way to spicy, savoury tones, with a touch of orange rind and aniseed. Complexity, finesse and power. This boasts three Golds and 95pts from Halliday's Greanche challenge putting Grenaches from all over the country head to head. Enjoy it slightly chilled.
