Located on the western slopes of Mt Camel Range, Tellurian is one of the rising stars of the Heathcote wine region, producing an impressive range of Shiraz along with some impressive red and white wines influenced by France’s Rhone Valley. The team at Tellurian recognise Grenache is capable of thriving on Heathcote’s ancient red soils with warm days developing expressive flavours, cool nights retaining soft, elegant texture.

This 2021 Tellurian GSM is another high quality example of Heathcote red; offering lifted aromas of raspberry, cherry, plum and wild strawberry combine with subtle savoury, earthy notes. Medium bodied palate highlighted by vibrant red fruits, elegant texture and mouthfeel, with soft, plush tannins and well balanced acidity providing a moreish finish.

“92 Points. Certified organic. Matured for 10 months in seasoned French oak barriques. The lack of new oak works a treat here, the fruit is allowed to express itself freely. There are subtle signs of cedar for sure, and the texture is velvety soft, but the red licorice, violet and blueberry flavours are on open and delicious show, as are the sweet spice notes. A lovely wine to drink. 14.6% alc. Drink: 2024 – 2030. Screwcap”- Campbell Mattinson, winecompanion.com.au.
