Rockford Moppa Springs Grenache Blend 2007
Early-drinking and modestly fruited, this traditional, rather leathery blend has a peppery, spicy bouquet of sweet, slightly jammy blueberries, raspberries and blackberries lifted by a perfume of red flowers. ItÕs smooth and supple, with a pliant, soft and spicy palate finishing quite savoury, with licorice-like and earthy nuances. ItÕs ready to go now.

Winery
Rockford
Rockford is a dedicated small Barossa maker and a committed supporter of the region’s small vineyards and their owners. Its wines are made with a refreshing disregard for trends and fashion and are bottled without artefact or manipulation. That is not to suggest that they are made and assembled without great care, experience and dedication, but these are essentially ‘natural’ wines that faithfully reflect their sites and seasons. The Basket Press and Black Shiraz have rightly become regional classics
