Celebrate the Chinese New Year with the ‘close to perfection’ Australian Grenache. With 15% whole bunches and 16 months ageing in used 500l French oak puncheons, this wine has a rounded texture and sweet fruits, with some Asian spices in the background. A perfect match with the sweet, complex brown sugar and coconut milk flavours of the sticky rice cake (Nian Gao年糕), a popular Cantonese CNY food.
