Bright garnet in colour with purple and red hues. Inviting aromas of dark cherries and raspberry amid a floral, spicy background. Time in the glass reveals orange zest, lavender and a tantalising hint of herbes de Provence. This medium–bodied, seductive Grenache shows excellent balance between fruits and spices, silky tannins and lively acidity.

Made from a collection of gnarled old bush vine vineyards planted from 1920 - 1976, these vineyards produce small quantities of fruit with a high concentration of flavours. A range of terroir can be seen across the different vineyards, from sandy soils and loam to red-brown earth over red clay. Each parcel of fruit has individuality, creating intriguing complexity. Good late winter and spring rains ensured the vine canopies grew well. Optimal flowering conditions provided the ideal environment for fruit set and showed great balance. Summer was mild with below average daytime temperatures and cool nights that led to the development of fabulous colour, pristine aromatics and flavours with good natural acidity.
