Description

Grenache is justifiably taking Australia by storm. Our newfound fascination with the variety is really thanks to winemakers like Sierra Reed, who have experimented with the variety, showcasing just how versatile and approachable it can be.

This is, in our minds, truly exceptional. It's no more than medium bodied, with a finely woven tapestry of acid and tannin, but it still packs that intensity of flavour which is synonymous with Barossa. There are pops of bright red raspberries and cranberries, with fresh herbs, chocolate biscuit and a delicate layer of cooking spices. This is finely tuned, and the quality is crystal clear. Beautiful wine, beautifully made.

    Quality Wine to be savoured in good company

    The joke is on me as to the selection of this Label given Alexia is my late mother’s name. Simply love a good Red and Grenache variety does not disappoint one iota. Bon Appetit & Enjoy

Fine tannins and an hourglass shape form this wine’s mouthfeel on the palate. Crushed dried flowers and ripe red fruits bound by savouriness make up the vintage’s captured expression in liquid form. This Grenache always has a beautiful consistency year after year that speaks of site and place. It’s like a Lune croissant, many fine layers that accumulate to an intense but airy wine.

Reed Wines

Sierra Reed has made wines all over the world.From Barolo to the Barossa, from North Otago to Beaujolais she has travelled the globe on a personal journey of wine discovery.

She now crafts super-small batches of delicate wines from South Australia and Victoria from her home base in Tourquay. She describes her approach to winemaking as a blend of intuition, dedication, and a willingness to push boundaries. Her commitment to Riesling and hunting great vineyards has even led her to Waitaki Valley in New Zealand, where she discovered a terroir that aligns with her vision of creating wines with depth and complexity.

Sierra believes in the power of individual expression in winemaking, with each wine representing a unique moment in time. She sees winemaking as a continuous journey of exploration and discovery, driven by a desire to create wines that reflect her ongoing pursuit of excellence and innovation. She has a light touch in the winery, always looking for softness, fragrance and levity in her wines.

Ordering

We want Different Drop customers to always be getting the best price. If you see a lower price elsewhere, just get in touch and we will sort it out for you. We handle all our price-matching on a case by case basis.

Some things to keep in mind: 

  • Retrospective price-matching is available for 30 days after you have purchased from us.
  • The price match cannot be used in conjunction with a coupon or one-off deal we are offering. The idea is for you to get the best price in the market so if that is already achieved through a coupon then we won't price match on top of that.
  • We don't price match clearance or fire sales.
  • We’ll match the listed price as long as it is a legitimate offer and the competing store is actually able to fulfil the order (they have stock or more stock is en route). Essentially we won't price match cheeky vendors listing wines they have no hope of actually getting for you...
  • It must be a publicly listed price. We won't match a price that has been achieved through a coupon/cash-back arrangement, or through a non-advertised offer over the phone or otherwise.  
  • It is limited to a reasonable retail quantity.

We'll treat each price match request on its merit and reserve the right to refuse where we deem fit. For example, particularly rare wines, from non-trust-worthy vendors, in circumstances we deem illegitimate or if we feel our policy is being unfairly taken advantage of.

At the end of the day, we'll look after you and use common sense to ensure you're getting the best price, please just don't take the p%$$!

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

We stock three different sized gift boxes (single, three bottle and six), all are available for purchase for a flat rate of $8. They look great and make an awesome impression.

To add a gift box to your order, simply add at checkout. The special requests box is your friend, please give us as many details of what you are looking for and we will try our best, or get in contact to discuss it with you. 

If you want to bulk order gifts or if you have any trouble please email hello@differentdrop.com or call and we can try and help.

 

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
