TASTING NOTES
New Release!
Made from the fruit of 80 year old vines on our Blewitt Springs property, an area that James Halliday refers to as the “Holy of Hollies“ for Grenache.
This wine exhibits powerful fruit flavours interlaced with a ripe and fine tannin profile.
The grapes were crushed and destemmed and vinified in open fermenters this wine has seen very little oak influence in order to exhibit the purity of Blewitt Springs Grenache
Colour : deep garnet of high intensity
Nose : Dark briary fruit with playful notes of red licorice and white pepper
Palate : Kirsch liqueur with brighter notes of musk. The palate is powerful in fruit weight but the fine tannin and natural acidity keep the flavours bright and pure.
