TREAD SOFTLY GRENACHE
Description
Sourced from established vineyards of the rich soils of the border of Victoria and South Australia. The vines are mostly dry-grown and utilise expert canopy management to help to control ripening and vigour. Harvested in the cool of the morning to avoid the warmer temperatures of the day. The fruit is quickly delivered to the winery for destemming and crushing prior to a regular fermentation in stainless steel tank. The wine is aerated, and temp controlled for an even ferment and then spends 3 months in tank on solids prior to bottling and an early release.
A lighter style Grenache from South Australia impresses by the fact that there's no compromise on flavour even at a lower alcohol. The nose is vibrant with aromatic upfront fruit and a balanced palate with soft mouthfeel and a clean acid finish. Pair it with a charcuterie plate.
