The Mother Rock BRUTAL! Red 2025 is a minimal-intervention, bone-dry Grenache Noir (0.09g/L RS) from Swartland, South Africa, featuring 3 days of skin contact and 8 months of aging under flor. It is described as a "curious" wine with a shy nose of red fruit and earth, and a lean, savory, and structured palate. It is a zero-sulphur release. 

Made according to the tenets of the Brutal! movement that began in Catalonia – wines to be made on an experimental basis, one per harvest, and no added sulphites. This vintage is Pinot Noir topped with Cinsault and entirely fun-filled. The nose shows an intensely floral note as well as red berries and Rooibos tea while the palate is light and fresh with a savoury finish. CE’s rating: 90/100.
