Description
Juno Grenache Noir 2025 is a vibrant Grenache Noir wine from Piekenierskloof, known for producing expressive and fruit-driven South African wine. It shows bright aromas of cherry, raspberry and red currants, layered with subtle hints of dried herbs and spice.
The palate is medium-bodied and juicy, with flavours of cranberry and pomegranate supported by soft spice and silky, well-integrated tannins. A gentle earthiness adds depth, while the finish remains fresh and elegant.
This versatile red pairs well with pork tacos, mushroom risotto or oven-baked fish, making it an easy choice for relaxed meals and everyday enjoyment.
Got it out of interest - and I'm a sucker for both Grenache and the 'Fanakolesque' packaging (or did they actually do it?). Very good value and delivers on the juicy/fruity side, but just a little rough on the mouthfeel compared to that muddy structure that some producers are getting. Feels like it needs a charcuterie board....
