Bush vines are managed biodynamically for ultra premium quality. Viticulture practices are fully certified organic and biodynamic.
Tasting notes: Ruby red with light pink hues. A perfumed floral fragrance of strawberries and raspberries. Bright red fruits jump from the glass showing excellent varietal expression. Light to medium bodied wine with a crunchy lively red berry flavour. Hints of savoury spice arising from whole bunch fermentation to add slight grip and texture and creates wonderful length on the palate.

Serving suggestions: Pork or Chicken dishes or even gamey dishes such as Venison or Quail.
Winemaker: Richard Freebairn.
Vinification details: We hand picked our bush vine Grenache at optimum sugar and flavour balance. 20% of the harvest was used as whole bunches, with the remainder gently de-stemmed. A slow, cool ferment helped capture the character of the vineyard and a combination of pump overs and plunging for 14 days enhanced depth of flavours. When fermentation was finished the must was pressed to 1 year old French oak barriques for maturation of six months prior to blending and bottling.
