This 2012 GSM exhibits aromas of blackberry, raspberry, spicy plum and toffee apple, with hints of pomegranate and pepper. On the palate this rich intense wine displays spicy mulberry, ripe black cherry, Christmas pudding and chocolate notes, complemented by a seam of blueberry and star anise.
A potent medium to full-bodied blend with gushes of fresh, confit and poached red fruits from every corner of the globe (and into the mouth). Just a little top heavy.

5-Star Winery - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2011 Edition
In 1892 Alexander Campbell Johnston planted the first small vine cuttings on his newly purchased 97 hectare property in McLaren Vale, South Australia. Alexander settled with his family on the property and proudly named it ‘Pirramimma’, an Aboriginal phrase meaning ‘the moon and the stars’. More than 115 years and three generations later the Johnston Family still operates one of Australia’s oldest and proudest family owned and run wineries - Pirramimma. Making wines that range from the traditional to the innovative, Pirramimma is pure McLaren Vale. As one of the original landholders in the region the family is committed to its home and the regionally unique wines they produce.
Geoff Johnston, Grandson of Alexander, is the modern custodian of the family heritage. The Johnston family have grown the property from 97 hectares in 1892 to 250 hectares today. The family philosophy is to produce wines from estate grown grapes, ensuring the highest quality standards are met and the unique regional characters are displayed.
