Nord-Sud, Rouge 2023 Pinot Noir raspberries and apples and aPlace: Adelaide Hills, Australia Grape: Shiraz + Cabernet Sauvignon + Grenache + Pinot Noir Vibe: Balanced A better red you'd be hard pressed to find at this price. Sometimes such esoteric blends earn a raised eyebrow from me, but if you get them right, they're absolutely banging. Cosy and warming yet still juicy and fresh, all the varietals are bringing their best here to produce a wine that's way more than the sum of its parts. ABV: 13%
