Sourced from a single block of Grenache vines located on an east-facing slope. The thin brown loam topsoils lie over a seam of ancient marble and ironstone, producing low yields of small-berried Grenache. This produces intensely flavoured wines, typical of the Greenock Creek style. The fruit is harvested and destemmed, and fermented for 7-10 days with twice daily pump-overs. The wine is basket pressed to a combination of seasoned French and American oak hogsheads for 8 months maturation prior to bottling. A fragrant wine displaying red fruits and warm spices. On the palate, raspberry and mulberry fruits intermingle over powdery tannins. The finish if fresh and delicate. Drink now to 2028. Show more
