Yalumba Samuel’s Collection Barossa Bush Vine Grenache 2019
Barossa Valley, South Australia, AustraliaFrom older bush vines, planted from 1889 to 1972 (average planting 1944) across Barossa's valley floor, this was partial whole bunch, and had a lengthy maceration period along with a native ferment in stainless. All batches are racked into older American, French, and Hungarian hogsheads for six months maturation prior to bottling. Fragrant black cherry, raspberry, and plum is imbued with wild flowers and fine grained pink peppercorns, all lofted with an easy acidity. Tannins are fine and long, guiding this to a peppery, mustard seed finish. Drinking very smartly now.Tasted: 03 November 2021Tasted by: Prices:
