Taras and Amber Ochota make premium single vineyard blends from sites in different parts of South Australia. Fugazi is made from a parcel of old vine Grenache and is named (like most of their cuvées) after an American Punk band.

The Ochotas are part of a new wave of Aussie producers trying to make wines with more elegance and balance - so fine wines but more drinkable than some of the blockbusters of the past.

The 2021 Fugazi Vineyard Grenache has a fragrant thread of wild herbs. Fennel seed and charcuterie is underpinned with raspberry, violets and Asiatic spice. The taut, nervous tension of compact red currants and Satsuma plum fills the mid palate with mouth-watering red berry intensity. Finely grained tannins position this svelte, fleshy, and measured weight of forest cherries and persimmon into a long succulent and savoury finish.

  • ❖ ABV: 13.5%
