2025 Duke Grenache

Adam, second generation at Gibson, is The Duke. Back in his footy days, legend has it he’d often be engaged in scuffle and melee, dukes-up in defence of his teammates. Duke Grenache carries that energy. It’s a story of lively exuberance versus boldness in wine style. 

Colour: Bright ruby red with a garnet hue.

Aroma: Bright and perfumed, this wine opens with vibrant aromas of red cherries, red currant and rose hip, layered with notes of raspberry coulis and persimmon. Whole-bunch fermentation contributes lifted floral complexity and a subtle herbal edge, while hints of white pepper add spice and intrigue.

 Palate: Energetic and finely structured, with red fruit flavours, crisp red apples and resinous tannins providing texture and savoury grip, complementing the wine's purity and freshness.
