Beresford Emblem Grillo McLaren Vale 2024 scores 91 points from Tyson Stelzer in WBM. “I love the citrus crunch here and the way it contrasts with a spicy edge, fresh peach and subtle not-quite-ripe exoticism of passionfruit and star fruit. The palate strikes a compelling accord between cool season acidity, supple fruit flesh and just the right touch of phenolic grip.” $25. @beresfordestate @mclaren_vale #Emblem #Grillo #McLarenVale #citrus #crunch ❤️
