2024 Old Vine Grenache - 95pts Vino Masters

$60.00

Lone Palm Vineyard Grenache was hand picked from two extremely old gnarly vines, one in Seppeltsfield planted in the early 1900’s and one from Nuriootpa planted in the 1950’s. Fermented separately, with indigenous yeast (ie natural) and 20% whole bunches to create an ethereal wine that pays full respect to it’s place. Vibrant in colour, fresh, juicy and a little crunch on the palate with amazing fine talcy tannins. Lip smacking and very more some!

Bottled unfined and unfiltered to maintain freshness and purity (Vegan Friendly).

95 points Vino Masters - Bright ruby with lifted clarity. Aromas of red cherry, raspberry and strawberry are complemented by hints of spice, florals and subtle earthiness.
Hand-picked from 80 year old vines, the palate is medium-bodied and vibrant, delivering fruit of red cherry and raspberry supported by silky tannins and balanced acidity. A gentle savoury edge and spice build through the mid-palate, finishing bright, smooth and persistent. Its purity and old vine intensity stand out. ★★★★★ A vibrant Grenache with finesse, depth and varietal clarity
