Tasting Notes
A bright and brilliantly energetic wine from Brett Grocke. A simpler wine than the other reds from Eperosa but by no means a lesser wine. Red fruited and sweet spice leap from the glass. The palate is soft and finely tuned. Tasty and really punches above its price point. - Chris L
Fresh strawberries and red plums, roses and light spices on the nose. Really bright acidity and silky, fine tannins. Really smooth and easy to drink. A great reflection of the cooler 2021 vintage in Barossa. - Aaron C.
Brett Grocke is a 6th generation Barossan who believes in 'wines built from the dirt up'. This Magnolia Blanc (100% Semillon) is exactly that. The fruit comes off three organically-farmed sites planted on the granitic sands below Mengler's Hill in the Barossa. There is a beautiful and elegant extraction of apricot-like flavour from the skins of the Semillon which sits long on your palate. It also has a great line and freshness, which is reminiscent of oyster shells. It is delicious and one of the most interesting wines you'll have for the money. Let it open your mind about what Semillon can be. Stunning wine!
