Levantine Hill Glen Garvald PB Red Blend No.1 2022 from the Yarra Valley is a Rhône‑style, single‑vineyard red that’s all about explosive depth, spice and moreish tannin – a future‑fit Aussie blend with real swagger.

Aromatically, Glen Garvald PB Red Blend No.1 2022 throws out blueberry, sloe berry and violets, with Aleppo pepper, mandarin zest, orange blossom, apricot, fig tarte tatin, olive brine and flinty granite adding serious complexity. On the palate, it hits with damson plum, tamarind, red liquorice, mocha, flint, lovage and bay leaf, all drawn long by weighted, tactile dusty tannins and bright acidity at 13% alcohol. The blend is 63% Shiraz, 16% Carignan, 11% Mourvèdre and 10% Grenache Noir, naturally fermented in concrete and old oak, then matured 20 months with zero new oak.cdn.

Food‑wise, Levantine Hill Glen Garvald PB Red Blend No.1 2022 is a ripper with roast lamb, Mediterranean plates, hearty stews, charcuterie and matured cheddar – its plush fruit, spice and structure are made for rich, savoury dishes. Vegan‑friendly and built to cellar for 10+ years, it’s very much a “greater than the sum of its parts” red for drinkers who love layered Rhône‑style blends with Yarra finesse.
