Grenache Blanc is a classic Mediterranean variety, and a natural fit for McLaren Vale. Maxwell’s 2025 release leans into that style beautifully — fresh, textural and mineral, with real clarity and lift. Aromas of fresh lemon and citrus florals lead the way, with stone-fruit tones and a gentle hint of mixed spice. On the palate, the wine stays bright and mineral, with green apple, stone fruit and fennel character carrying through to a crisp, refreshing finish. The 2025 vintage was one of the driest McLaren Vale seasons since 2006, bringing healthy fruit, low disease pressure and excellent balance — a year that produced vibrant whites with real purity. A brilliant food wine and an ideal warm-weather white with substance.
