Tasting Notes
Paxton Grenache 2024 opens with an inviting bouquet of sun-warmed red fruits, characteristic of McLaren Vale's generous Mediterranean-influenced climate. On the nose, vibrant notes of wild strawberry, raspberry coulis, and kirsch mingle with a delicate floral lift of dried rose petals and a whisper of white pepper. The palate is silky and generous, delivering a plush mid-palate of juicy red cherry and pomegranate, underpinned by subtle garrigue, dried herbs, and a gentle earthiness that speaks to the biodynamic farming practices Paxton is renowned for. Tannins are fine-grained and supple, with bright natural acidity keeping the wine fresh and lively. The finish is long and fragrant, fading gracefully with lingering spice and red fruit.
