Tasting Notes
Palate
Fruit ripeness, intensity, freshness, and natural acidity.
Vinification
Sourced exclusively from 13.3 hectares of un-irrigated bush vines planted in 1946. Hand-picked, selectively sorted in the winery. 50% whole berries retained. Wild yeast. A very gentle pump over regime during fermentation, often just wetting the cap. Some extended maceration where taming or polishing of tannin required and in some cases up to 10 months. No pressings used. Maturation in a mixture of old French and Austrian puncheons, foudre, ceramic eggs and amphora. Bottled July 2023.
Vintage Notes
The 2022 growing season followed very similar conditions to 2021, though slightly cooler. There were favourable winter rains and a mild flowering and fruit set period. The cool ripening period took place between late January through to harvest in March.
Region Notes
Our Grenache bush vines are old. These gnarly strugglers were planted in 1946 in a deep sandy dune we call The Beach, overlying the North Maslin Sands geological formation. The Old Vine Grenache is a complex, perfumed and elegant wine with a trademark tannin structure.
