Barossa Wine Cartel Grenache 2022

Peramangk Country

This is a straight Grenache made up of two vineyards- 60% of the wine came from Alkina in Greenock, on the western side of the Barossa Valley. Young vines, but certified organic and biodynamic fruit. The remaining 40% of the wine came from Shea & Kylie Preece's 90+ year old bush vine Grenache block in Ebenezer, at the northern end of the Barossa Valley.

Smells like raspberries and fresh mint. Or like the strawberries and ice cream you use to get at the Adelaide Tennis Open during summer. It has some brambly forest fruits kind of thing going on, and some spicy high tones, too.

Tastes like fresh raspberries and strawberries, with bright crunchy acidity. The tannins are really fine, but they hang around for ages! It screams of a spring day in the sun, or a summer afternoon on the lawn, served slightly chilled. Don't think, just drink!              - Barossa Wine Cartel
