Tasting Notes
Vinification
The fruit was hand-picked on the 3rd April and processed as a 100% whole bunch ferment.
After a slow and cool ferment the fruit was pressed to large format neutral French oak where it remained on
full lees until racking for bottling in May 2024.
Region Notes
Sourced
from the upper tank block on the Brini vineyard in the Blewitt Springs sub-region of
McLaren Vale. This block has been a staple of Aphelion from our first vintage and forms the backbone of
the Confluence Grenache. Sandy based loam soils provide fruit that gives intensity and a brooding edge.
