Bekkers McLaren Vale Syrah Grenache 2021 750ml

"It’s the depth of colour that draws the intake of breath, and setting the pace of the wine that, through some vinous magic simultaneously offers elegance and power. Plum, blackberry and black cherry provide the fruit flavours, welded together on the lingering finish."

"Why isn't there more wine like this from McLaren Vale? Great colour and style here. A fragrant wine with intense and complex aromas, pepper, blue and red fruits, meaty, blood and minerals. The medium palate weaves a wonderous course with its soft dense tannins packed equally from front to back; the mouth filling black fruits turn smoked meat savoury and filled with delicious McLaren Vale tannins to close. The richness of McLaren Vale with elegance. Each wine in this company has its own personality. Top drop."

"Intense ruby and purple hues in the glass. A heady melange of spices and fruits leaps out and demands your attention. Medium to full bodied but there is an elegance to its poise that sings of quality fruit and deft wine making. Great length and drive, it lingers for an age on the palate. Drink 2023–2038."
96 points, Stuart Knox, The Real Review.
