Tasting Notes

Aroma

Pure fruited aromas of redcurrant and cinnamon.

Appearance

Beautifully intense purple colour.

Palate

There is follow through on to the palate with fresh acidity keeping the wine lively and vibrant.

Vinification

A small percentage of whole bunch fermentation in the wine adds a savoury element and herbal notes.

Cellaring Potential

Ready to drink now whilst it retains its youthful vibrancy but will drink well over the next 5 8 years.

Range Notes

The Welkin Grenache By Aphelion 2023 is part of our special range of vibrant, early release, ready to enjoy, but delightfully complex wines.

Food Matching

The Welkin Grenache is a light bodied wine that works very well in an aperitivo setting. Perfect with light tapas or light to medium bodied cuisine. Fresh chevre matches this wines youthful vibrancy.

Winemakers Comments

We like to call the Welkin Grenache furiously aromatic. It fairly leaps out of the glass at you!

Region Notes

Delicately hand picked from a 20 year old Grenache vineyard towards the sea in Whites Valley.

    Poached strawberry, raspberry, lemon thyme and rosemary perfume, hazelnut, candied orange peel and mint. Juicy, strawberry, kind of sweet and succulent, but also has a little savoury stony stuff, nutty things and solid length too, and gee it’s a fun little wine. Nice. Kind of like a big rosato in a way. Points: 92/100
