Technically this is entitled Not Your Grandma’s Chillable Red. A blend of old vine Barossa Grenache and Mourvedre, it’s packaged in clear glass for early consumption and comes complete with a temperature sensitive “if you can read this, I’m chilled to <15º & ready to go” label! Vegan friendly, too if that’s your thing.
Chaffey Bros, Not your Grandma’s Red, Barossa Valley, 2020
Deep cerise to toffee apple red in hue. Cool, herbed nose with red currant, blue plum, hints of cola, gravel and floral potpourri. Crunchy and vibrant palate with just a hint of grip but plenty of cut. A cheeky and delightful wine.
