Millon Wines Clare’s Secret 2017 Grenache
Who loves Grenache? It matches very well with a hot bubbly bath after work on a Monday IMO 😉
This red grape variety originates from Spain where it’s called Garnacha. It thrives in warm-hot wine regions and is probably more commonly used in blends like the famous GSM blend. It is used in a blend to add colour and aromatics. Continue reading
Millon Wines Clare’s Secret 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon
How cool is this label – the temperature of the bottle affects it.
This Clare’s Secret 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon from the Clare Valley is produced by Millon Wines who sent this sample my way (thank you!).
It retails for $18 and they recommend matching it with rich meat dishes such as braised lamb with creamy mashed potato. Yum! We enjoyed it with our bbq dinner which featured lots of delicious meat.
In the glass, it’s a gorgeous juicy deep red colour. In fact, I’d love nail polish in this exact colour please! On the nose, it makes me think of fresh blue and blackberries with a mug of mocha on the side. While in the mouth it’s juicy, fresh and easy drinking. Super well rounded and silky. Great bbq wine!
