Woah! This Single Vineyard Grenache from Penny's Hill is absolutely humming. Give it to me!
From 75 year old dry grown bush vines in Blewitt Springs, the vines sink their feet into deep sand. Made with 25% whole bunches, it sees 8 months in seasoned French oak.
Such a pretty wine, dried petals and purple flowers light this up. Pretty as, the freshness has been preserved deliberately and tosses up raspberry coulis and squishy raspberries. Drunken cherries and cherry pips add to the detail. Drying, it is delicately spiced with a satin like finish. What a cracker! Tasted with winemaker Lexi Roberts, I could get awfully comfortable with this. Brilliant!
Drink to eight years.
