Tasting Notes
Maxwell GSM from McLaren Vale is a richly expressive Southern Rhône-style blend of Grenache, Shiraz, and Mourvèdre that showcases the sun-drenched generosity of the region. On the nose, it opens with an inviting burst of ripe red cherries and crushed raspberries, layered with violet florals and a subtle hint of dried herbs. The palate is plush and generous, with dark plum and bramble fruit taking centre stage, supported by warm baking spice, a whisper of smoked charcuterie, and supple, well-integrated tannins. The wine has a velvety texture that carries through beautifully, with the Mourvèdre lending a savoury, earthy backbone that adds complexity and depth to the fruit-forward Grenache core.
