Made by Corey Ryan from vineyards around Seaview and Willunga, it brings together juicy red berries, subtle spice and fine tannins in an approachable, medium-bodied style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFruit from older and younger Grenache vineyards is fermented in small batches, with gentle extraction designed to preserve freshness and texture. Maturation in older oak and stainless steel allows the fruit to remain at the centre of the wine, delivering a lively combination of cherry, raspberry, strawberry and savoury complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vibrant ruby red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red cherry, ripe raspberry and wild strawberry, with subtle spice, dried herbs and earthy undertones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Juicy red berries and delicate spice on a plush, medium-bodied palate, supported by bright acidity and fine, supple tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth and lingering, with persistent red fruit, gentle savoury spice and refreshing acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVineyard \u0026amp; Winemaking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Giant Grenache is sourced from established vineyards around Seaview and Willunga in McLaren Vale, South Australia. Winemaker Corey Ryan ferments selected parcels in small, open-top fermenters, using gentle extraction to develop colour and tannin without overwhelming the fruit. The wine is matured partly in older oak and partly in stainless steel before blending and bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCritic Reviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“I’ve tasted through a good many of the current Little Giant range and this is my pick of them. It’s spot on for style, flavour and value. It tastes of red cherries and redcurrant with infusions of peppercorn and general, roasted spice. But it’s those sweet red berry flavours, not overdone, served unadorned and without too much heat, that impresses, and makes you want to drink more.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90 Points — Campbell Mattinson, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.winefront.com.au\/little-giant-grenache-2025\/\"\u003eThe Wine Front\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003c\/strong\u003e12 October 2026, \u003cstrong\u003eDrink:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2026–2029\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Giant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67367131513081,"sku":"9344154012481-2025","price":17.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/6820\/0441\/files\/little-giant-grenache-2025-mclaren-vale.webp?v=1792022919","url":"https:\/\/winesellersdirect.com.au\/products\/little-giant-grenache-2025-mclaren-vale","provider":"Wine Sellers Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
