Kay Brothers Griffon's Key Reserve Grenache

Kay Brothers Griffon’s Key Reserve Grenache 2022, crafted by Kay Brothers in McLaren Vale, is an alluring red that brings floral perfume and dark cherry character together with savoury finesse. Bright crimson with a violet hue, it makes an inviting first impression before its layered aromatics draw you closer.

Rose petals and violets lead the bouquet, followed by dark cherries and dried herbs. Published critic descriptors add strawberry, crushed musk, lilac and orange rind, with saline tannins lending intriguing definition. The 2022 Kay Brothers Griffon’s Key Grenache offers an expressive interplay of fruit, fragrance and savoury detail.

Give it a place beside roast duck, rosemary-crusted lamb or mushroom and thyme risotto. These suggested pairings complement its cherry fruit, herbal nuances and tannin structure, letting the wine’s perfume shine. It is a compelling choice for a special dinner when you want character and elegance rather than sheer power.
