This is an aromatic wine with notes of dark cherry, raspberry, blood orange and dried herbs. The vibrant and refreshing flavours give it a moreish quality, along with youthful tannins and a beautiful fruit-forward finish.

“It’s glorious to look at the perfectly shaped bush vines with their upright growth and bright green leaves. Adaptive and resilient, they are a grower’s dream to work with. What an absolute joy it is to make wine from these vineyards.” – Winemaker’s notes

Their Grenache Noir is grown as echalas vines (vine-to-post) on clay-shale rich soil with a high component of quartz rock. Every vintage they leave half of each clone tied to the pole and the other half untied. This creates two different micro-climates within each vine. The cooler micro-climate of the traditional echalas has a higher acidity and different aromatic complexity. The untied vine will be more sun exposed like a traditional bush vine.
