About The Wine
The Jack's GSM combines three varieties from four vineyards across the Barossa Valley.
This sees Grenache take centre stage, making up almost two thirds of the blend. The spice and sweet red berry notes float from the glass. The Shiraz component lends some dark fruit and a hint of chocolate on the palate. Mataro adding a smidge of earthy tannin and a touch of smoked meat on the nose.
It's a classic Barossa blend for a bargain price.

From The Producer
The 2018 GSM is estate grown fruit from the Moppa Hill and Greenock Vineyards. 62% Grenache soured from an old vine vineyard at Moppa, 23% Shiraz from Greenock along with 2% Shiraz from Moppa and 13% dry grown Mourvédre from Moppa. Each variety adds its own characteristics to the blend – Grenache aromatic red fruits and spice, Shiraz dark fruits and mid palate weight. Mourvédre completes the balance by adding structure and complexity to the finish.
Handpicked fruit 100% de-stemmed this vintage. Grenache cold soaked 4 days before wild yeast allowed to start ferment. Cultured yeast is added after 6 degrees of alcohol obtained. Shiraz fermented with cultured yeast; ferment kept on the cooler side and pumped over three times per day. Mourvédre like the Grenache is hand plunged in small open top fermemters. After 21 days on skins for the Grenache & Mourvédre, Shiraz 12 days, the wine was then drained to oak barrels and skins were hand dug out of the fermenters into the basket press.
