Alkina Old Quarter GSM 2023 is a thrilling, estate-grown Barossa Valley blend from Alkina Wine Estates, combining old-vine Grenache, Shiraz and Mataro into a fragrant, finely detailed red with serious pedigree. Certified organic and biodynamic fruit brings a beautifully pure, site-driven edge.

Rhubarb, raspberry and earthy beetroot set the tone, joined by blackberry compote, boysenberry, fresh fig, graphite and exotic spice. The Alkina Old Quarter Grenache Shiraz Mataro 2023 feels juicy yet composed, with a lightly rocky texture, fine tannins and fresh acidity carrying the fruit through a long, savoury finish.

Pour this Barossa GSM alongside rosemary-roasted lamb, crisp-skinned duck, slow-braised beef or chargrilled eggplant with smoky herbs. Its lifted perfume and savoury structure also make it a superb match for Middle Eastern spiced dishes and hard aged cheeses, delivering restaurant-level finesse at home.
