Nikola Estate Geographe Grenache 2023
The Nikola Estate Geographe Grenache 2023 makes a fantastic first impression with its gorgeous nose, packed with concentrated red fruits and a hint of spice. It’s the kind of wine that encourages you to take your time, with lifted rose aromas mingling beautifully with fresh raspberries and pomegranate, all rounded off by a touch of cracked pepper. This aromatic bouquet isn’t just enticing; it promises an intricate tasting experience that’s hard to resist.
On the palate, this Grenache truly shines, offering succulent flavours of raspberry and pepper that dance together in harmony. Medium-bodied and elegant, it showcases delicate floral notes alongside rosehip, pomegranate, and cranberries. The finish is particularly impressive, featuring silky, talc-like tannins and a gentle acidity that gives it wonderful length. It pairs perfectly with hearty dishes like Wagyu beef burgers or a juicy steak, making it an ideal choice for a special dinner.
Visually, the wine is stunning, presenting a dark red hue with lovely plum undertones. Its beauty reflects the careful craftsmanship that goes into its creation. With only 165 dozen bottles and 60 magnums produced from a small vineyard in the Geographe region, this wine is truly a regional gem. It has spent six months maturing in a mix of new and seasoned oak barriques, allowing it to develop its distinctive character and depth.
What really sets this Grenache apart is its departure from winemaker Damian Hutton’s usual style. Instead of a bold, robust expression, this wine embodies a delicate femininity, exuding a pretty floral bouquet alongside soft, seamless tannins and a vibrant red fruit finish. It’s no wonder it’s received accolades, including an impressive 94 points from Ray Jordan, who called it a beautifully textured and supple delight. This wine isn’t just something to drink; it’s an experience to savour and enjoy.
