Shawn Kalleske’s 2019 GSM comes from estate fruit sourced from Maranga, Moppa Hill and Greenock vineyards. This year’s blend is 52% Grenache (with the lion’s share from Maranga and a small component of old-vine Moppa), 28% Shiraz (mainly Greenock Creek with a little Moppa) and 20% dry-grown Mourvèdre (also from Moppa).

The fruit was predominantly de-stemmed, with a very small proportion of the old-vine Grenache seeing some whole bunch. Fermentations were separate, in open-top fermenters and with varying degrees of hand-plunging and pump-overs. The wine matured for 14 months in seasoned French oak puncheons and was bottled unfined and unfiltered. Magic value, as always.

Reviews

"52/28/20% grenache/shiraz/mourvédre from Matananga, Moppa Hill and Greenock in the western Barossa. All varieties 100% destemmed and whole-berry fermented; aged for 14 months in old French oak. Bright, spicy and plummy, there are red fruits and cranberry notes that add lift and perfume, fine feathery tannins and the wine displays a vivid acid pulse."
