Monterra was founded in 2012 on the basis of an undeniable admiration for almighty Mother Nature, and the desire to bring exceptional wines to Australian tables and beyond. The art of élevage is the skill of blending in the cellar, raising the potential of exceptional grapes to deliver something profound in the bottle. Meticulously blended parcels of wine, and the mystery of specially selected oak barrels deliver intense flavours, complexity and palate length. Élevage wines celebrate the honed skills and years of craftmanship.

Gold Medal & 94 Points - Wine Showcase

A ripe and juicy blend of Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvèdre, the GSM displays bright fruit – raspberry, black cherry, cranberry – with confectionery tinges and spicy hints. It hides its alcohol (14.5%ABV) really well, with the chewy tannins giving it interest and tactility (yes, that’s actually a word) in the mouth. Unexpectedly quaffable.

Sweetly ripe and inviting, it's instantly appealing on the nose with dark cherry, plum, rich floral, dark spice and nutmeg aromas, followed by a succulent palate offering supple texture and finely infused tannins. Generous, flavoursome and silky to the finish. Date: Oct 2022; Drink: Now to 2032; Price: $30.00; Rating: 93 Points; Sam Kim; Wine Orbit
