Grenache Blend / GSM

GSM is a red wine blend consisting of Grenache, Syrah/Shiraz, and Mataro (also known as Monastrell or Mourvèdre). Originating in France’s Rhône Valley, GSM’s New World milestones includes its establishment in the mid-1800s in Australia and a 1980’s revival in California. Grenache earns pole position in the GSM acronym as the traditional dominant partner in the blend, adding soft, candy-sweet berry flavour. This is complemented by Mourvèdre’s deep colour and tannins, along with earthy notes and gamey complexity. Shiraz’s contribution is dark fruit flavour and muscular structure, and an aromatic complexity including smokey aromas. GSM is a luscious, lovable crowd-pleaser.

  Not only do they sell delicious wine at great prices, but the owners of the store couldn't be more lovely. We had to cancel our wedding twice due to covid-19 and they have been amazing in helping us return and sell our alcohol. They have gone above and beyond. Highly recommend.

  Best wine shop in NZ, the staff are amazing and the selection is outstanding. Don't risk buying unknown wines at the supermarket, go to these expert guys and get hooked up with the best options possible relative to your taste.

  Excellent service. We wanted to bring wine from NZ homw to Europe, but shipping rates were so high and shipping times were so long that we decided to take it on the plane instead. The team here helped us package up 18 bottles of different wines we had tasted at wineries in Central Ontago and Malbourgh for a flight and everything arrived safely to Europe. Many, many thanks. We have some happy friends and family now!

  Love the selection and help they offer to people like myself with less expertise. These guys are experts and their product, service and selection is some of the best in town.
