Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, medium tannin, medium acidity, dry
Noon Winery is a small McLaren Vale operation with a devoted following, and Twelve Bells is the Grenache-and-Shiraz blend that introduces the house style — rich, unfiltered, high in alcohol and unapologetic about it. Sweet-fruited raspberry and dark plum over warm baking spice, licorice and a savoury edge, with a thick, coating texture and a long finish. Fine tannin holds the weight in shape. Generous rather than delicate, and it wears its power well.
