Tasting Note
Lots of juicy luscious black fruit in this medium sweet wine. The palate has interesting layers of forest fruits intertwined with mocha, coconut and vanilla flavours, a touch of spice and a lovely smooth creaminess on the finish.
Winemaking
Fruity Shiraz, juicy sweet Grenache and slightly spicy Carignan grapes are fully ripened by the southern French sun. The fruit is de-stemmed and pressed. Fermentation takes place in tank, preserving the juicy fruit and drinkability of Grenache Noir and Syrah. Portions of the wine see some time in oak, while a touch of Carignan Noir adds dark complexity and a spicy ‘oomph’.
Fun Fact
“Big Bold & Juicy” appears on the labels of Rib Tickler wines. Crafted with top quality fruit the wines are intended to be fruit forward and deliver the perfect balanced palate to accompany rib eye steaks and American ribs.
Food pairing
Like the rest of the Rib Tickler wines, this is built for beef, and an ideal partner for juicy rib eye steaks and succulent ribs. However, the natural sweetness of juicy, fruity Grenache partners perfectly with spicy dishes – anything from Jerk chicken to Indian and Thai curries
