2023 "Post Modern Seriousism" Grenache

GRENACHE IS HISTORIC, A LITTLE FORGOTTEN AND YET A STAR VARIETY OF THE SWAN VALLEY.  THIS FRUIT COMES FROM 35+ YEAR OLD VINEYARDS NEAR THE BASE OF THE DARLING SCARP CONSISTING OF GRAVEL AND SAND OVER COFFEE ROCK.   NATURAL FERMENT, SOME WHOLE BUNCH AND EXTENDED MACERATION.  

THIS IS A BRIGHT, EXUBERANT MODERN EXPRESSION OF GRENACHE.  WILD STRAWBERRIES, RASPBERRY AND SOUR CHERRY.  FLORAL, SARSAPARILLA AND DRIED HERB.  JUICY UPFRONT, AND A WHACK OF RUSTIC TANNINS TO MAINTAIN SHAPE.
