VINEYARD & WINEMAKING

The Frankland River sub-region of the Great Southern is a premier red wine growing area of Western Australia. The plantings of grenache vines in the region are sparse but the quality is exceptional. The fruit for this wine is from the Riversdale Vineyard which, due to its north facing orientation, delivers exceptionally high-quality fruit.

After picking and sorting, fermentation took place in small open fermenters, and maceration was gentle, lasting fifteen days with minimal intervention. The wine was then aged in low toast French oak barriques for ten months. It was then aged in bottle prior to release.

THE WINE

This grenache asks for your attention by drawing you to its pretty perfumes and red berry, cranberry-like, aromatics. It also shows subtle secondary aromas of spices, and earthy and herbal undertones.

The palate is medium bodied with a subtle grip of tannins, as you expect from grenache, apparent at the outset. The wine has a nice voluptuous mouth feel, with complex savoury flavours and very fine tannins. It has a long finish. It is a wine to be best enjoyed with fine food.

A lovely light red, that would be perfect on a warm summer day. It would pair well with a cheese platter. It tastes of plum and cherries.

This wine is simply beautiful. Medium bodied, well balanced, stunning aroma and colour. It’s easily my favourite red at the moment. Perfect for a movie night in with some truffle cheese and dark chocolate!
