Grenache 2024

R1,860.00 / 6 Bottle Case

In 2016, Deon Joubert (one of the first growers we ever worked with) called us and asked what we should plant on a rocky site over the hill from our Pinot Gris. Without hesitation we said GRENACHE! We have nurtured this little bushvine gem and watched these vines develop into something rather special. Before settling permanently in Stellenbosch, Grenache has played an important role in both of our winemaking journeys. It has been a dream come true to release this wine.

SKU: GREN Category:

Description

The grapes are destemmed into stainless steel open top fermenters. We work very gently with the grapes, doing a light pumpover or punch down 1-2 times a day until fermentation is complete. After pressing the wine is aged in a concrete tank for 8 months.
