Explore tasting notes of Yalumba The Tri-Centenary Ancestor Vine Grenache 2 Wine Lovers Lars H. http://corkscore.com/wine/141868#review-173615 2024-04-14T10:47:23Z 2024-04-14T10:47:23Z

<p><b>95 points</b> - Translucent purple red. Confectionary sugar with raspberry: classic Grenache. Palate has darker tones from judicious oak treatment. A medium bodied, fleet footed wine that is drinking impeccably well right now. There is a delicate acid balance keeping things fresh. Can’t believe this is a Barossa 14% alcohol wine! It was another 5-10 years in it at least.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Apr 14, 2024.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Medium to light purple red. Open knit, fragrant raspberry and mint like aromas, red berries. The palate follows on this theme, clean, open knit, soft tannins. Fruit is bright and vibrant, supported by a lacework of phenolics. A delicate grenache with presence and length, mouthfilling certainly, if not all that complex.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Apr 14, 2024.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Medium purple red. Restrained dried spice aromas, hints of anise, thyme, charry meat. Suave, polished tannins. Savoury, slippery, this is very attractive. Hints of pepper here sprinkled over the ripe fruit. Very smart!</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Jul 10, 2022.</p>

<p><b>92 points</b> - Medium purple red. Pinot noir like colour. Cherry aromas. Medium bodied, quite elegant. Faint dried herbs - thyme - mingle with red fruit. Falls a bit away in on the finish, where a bit more concentration may be desirable. Drinks perfectly well now and the fruit is showing nicely, but will probably age for a another couple of years. Amazing how a medium bodied wine like this can be made from a hot region such as Barossa.</p><p>Tasted on Sun, Jul 10, 2022.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Gorgeous youthful fruit. Rich and dense, tannins are finely woven.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, May 24, 2022.</p>

<p><b>94 points</b> - Spicy, complex aromas. Rich and concentrated with good depth and structure. Seems dense and restrained, yet built for the ages.</p><p>Tasted on Wed, May 18, 2022.</p>

<p><b>95 points</b> - Quite a stalky, plummy aromas, savoury. Lush and full to medium bodied, excellent drive and concentration yet with finesse and class. Elegant, and certainly not the blockbuster grenache styles.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Jun 1, 2021.</p>

<p><b>95 points</b> - Medium red. Red berries, medium bodied wine. Hints of graphite but not much. Delicate wine from a hot region. Lollies.</p><p>Tasted on Tue, Jun 1, 2021.</p>
