Yalumba The Tri Centenary Grenache 2023
This single vineyard Grenache has been crafted from grapes sourced from a two acre block in the Yalumba Tri-Centenary vineyard. Located in the heart of the Barossa Valley, this block comprises 820 gnarly old bush vines that were planted in 1889. The vineyard features deep, sandy loam layers underlain with red-brown clay. As temperatures increase and evaporation levels rise, moisture levels in the sand decrease rapidly, but the vine is able to draw moisture from the underlying clay. With careful management, dry grown vines on these soils can consistently produce outstanding quality fruit.
Light crimson in colour. Exotic aromas of purple flowers, wild red cherry and raspberries with hints of white pepper, cardamom and blood orange. The hallmark of this wine is 333 day post-ferment maceration which imparts plush texture initially, then silky with fine powdery tannins on the long finish. Stunning now, it will gradually evolve over the short to medium term.
