RBJ Theologicum Grenache Mataro 2000 (Recommended)
RBJ is a side project of sorts headed by Chris Ringland. This GM is a solid effort from a less than stella Barossa vintage.Colour is quite striking...murky, dirty blood red. Could be mistaken for a Bass Phillip pinot. Reasonably subdued nose with some faint hints of ripe berries, but not much more. Tastes like it looks; a touch dirty, funky, with some nice developed rhoney notes. Underpinned by some streaky acid. Good wine but definately on the right hand side of the 'peak', and did fade a little in the glass over time. Drink soon.
