The Hero Preservative Free Grenache 2025: Tasting Notes
WINE STYLE → Dark Berry & Spice
This is Grenache in its easy-going, dinner-friendly lane: dark plum and red-berry juiciness up front, a savoury “gamey” edge and clove-like spice, then a lift of dried flowers. It stays firmly dry, with a medium-bodied shape and fine-grained tannins that feel silky rather than grippy—so you can pour it slightly cool and keep refilling your glass without fatigue.
Highlights
- No Added Preservative + vegan-suitable
- Dark plum, clove spice and dried-flower perfume
- Night-picked fruit, cool fermentation and a short lees maturation for texture
- Great-value Grenache for weeknights and BBQs
- 14% ABV
