Like a Joy Division song on a sunny day—Rites of Spring brings edge and brightness in equal measure. This is McLaren Vale Grenache through the lens of minimal intervention: nervy, lifted, and totally unvarnished.
Whole bunches, wild ferment, no heavy oak to get in the way. Just pure red fruit—think cranberry, raspberry, rosehip—and that trademark Worlds Apart grip: lean, herbal tension wrapped in a floral shimmer. It’s delicate, but not polite. It’s spring, but post-punk. Serve slightly chilled and don't overthink it.
