Alpha Box & Dice Tarot Grenache 2020

McLaren Vale, South Australia, AustraliaThe 2020 Tarot Grenache comes from two old vine vineyards in two South Australian regions: Riverland's Ricca Terra Farms (84%) from the Barmera subregion; and McLaren Vale's Bell Vineyards (16%) from the Whites Valley subregion. This was 15% whole bunch, native fermented over 10 days before a nine month rest in foudre. Ripe, round and cushioned with doughy raspberry, strawberry jam, bayberries, and ample spicing. Tannins are present, but well absorbed into the generous palate, finishing in a gentle raft of sweet spice. For drinking now.Tasted: 31 January 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
