The Lloyd brothers have quickly made a name for themselves outside the family estate, and their Cactus Canyon Grenache is a great example of what they do best - bright, expressive wines with plenty of personality.
Sourced from their Blewitt Springs vineyard, this is a lighter, more vibrant take on McLaren Vale Grenache. Picked at moderate ripeness to keep things fresh, it’s all about lifted aromatics and a juicy, spice-laced palate. There’s plenty of red fruit - think raspberry and pomegranate - alongside subtle floral and herbal notes, with fine tannins adding just enough grip to keep things interesting.
It’s an easy, all-occasion Grenache that’s even better with a light chill on a warm afternoon. No fuss, just seriously good drinking.
