Yalumba The Tri-Centenary Grenache - 750ml

Certainly! Yalumba’s Tri-Centenary Grenache is a remarkable wine crafted from grapes sourced from 130-year-old bush vines planted in 1889. Here are the key details:

• Name: The Tri-Centenary Grenache

• Region: Barossa Valley, South Australia

• Variety: Grenache

• Tasting Notes: Perfumed aromas of violets, wild cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate are interwoven with notes of white pepper and blood orange. The hallmark of this wine is its 372-day post-ferment maceration, which imparts an incredibly silky texture and refinement to the palate, creating a textural wine with depth, structure, vibrant acidity, and defined tannins. Stunning now, it will gradually evolve over the medium term.
  

• Terroir & Site: The grapes for this single-vineyard Grenache come from a two-acre block in the Yalumba Tri-Centenary Vineyard. Located in the heart of the Barossa Valley, this block features 820 gnarly old bush vines that have been producing exceptional quality fruit since 1889.  The soil consists of deep sandy loam layers underlain with red-brown clay, resulting in consistently outstanding grapes.
