Winemaker’s Note

“These dry-grown, own-rooted vines are a true treasure. Each berry tells a story of resilience, purity, and place. This Grenache is all about finesse – floral, fresh and unfiltered – with a subtle power that sneaks up on you.”

Sustainability & Craft

Hand-harvested and naturally fermented using wild yeasts. Aged in seasoned large-format French oak to preserve fruit character without oak dominance. Bottled unfiltered, unfined, with minimal sulphur to maintain purity. Made with traditional low-intervention techniques that respect both fruit and vineyard.

Storage & Serving Tips

  • Serving Temperature: Enjoy around 16°C to highlight its perfume and softness.

  • Storage: Drink now or cellar until 2030 to enjoy its graceful evolution.

  • Glassware: Burgundy-style or universal red glass enhances its aromatic profile.

  • Decanting: A gentle decant for 30 minutes brings out depth and floral complexity.

FAQ – Grenache & Winemaking Details

Q: What makes this Grenache different?
A: It’s from dry-farmed, 70-year-old bush vines planted on Coffee Rock soils. No irrigation, no fining, no filtration – just raw expression of Swan Valley terroir.

Q: Is this wine oaked?
A: Yes, aged in seasoned French oak barrels to add subtle texture, but no new oak – so the fruit stays front and centre.

Q: What does “unfiltered and unfined” mean?
A: It means the wine is bottled with minimal handling to retain all of its natural flavour, mouthfeel, and complexity.

Q: Can this wine age?
A: Absolutely – drink now for freshness or cellar through to 2030 for added complexity and development.
