Description

SINGLE SITE: ROHLACH VINEYARD, VINE VALE, BAROSSA VALLEY

Grenache Blanc and Grenache Gris, key white mutations of the Grenache family and pillars of Southern Rhône blends. The introduction of this new wine reflects our continued focus on Rhône varieties and our deep connection to Grenache in all its forms.

THE WINE FRONT

62% Grenache Gris. 38% Grenache Blanc. Half fermented in stainless steel, the other half in Hungarian anfora. Some aged in new Austrian foudre, the rest in stainless steel.

Pear, white nectarine, white flower, a rock pool/marine sort of thing, toasted hazelnut, spice. Light, fine chalkiness, saline, pulls more citrus with some nutty things, has some gloss but keeps itself tight, finishes bright and gently salty with excellent length. Such a great drink. Balance is all just so.
