This Grenache, Mourvedre, and Shiraz blend from Mount Mary’s Marli Russell label offers a complex and aromatic experience. On the nose, expect an enticing bouquet of red fruits like raspberry and cherry, intertwined with darker plum and blackberry notes. Savory elements of dried herbs (garrigue), white pepper, and a touch of earthy spice will also be present. The palate is medium to full-bodied, showcasing a beautiful balance of vibrant fruit, integrated acidity, and fine-grained tannins. Flavors mirror the aromas, with a juicy fruit core complemented by savory spice, a hint of mocha, and a long, elegant finish that speaks to its Yarra Valley origins and the winemaker’s sophisticated touch.
