These vineyards produced outstanding fruit in the wonderful 2021 vintage. Red fruits, medium to full bodied with inherent power to produce a beautifully balanced Grenache. Bottled in December 2021. A classic Barossa Grenache, from an exceptional year, this wine carries the hallmarks of outstanding old vine fruit. This wine is bright, with lifted florals, red fruits, with a medium to full bodied pallet supported by fine tannins. A standout wine that is drinking very well on release and will continue to do so for a number of years.
