2022 Magnolia 1950
100% Grenache - Magnolia Vineyard, Vine Vale, Barossa Valley.
Dry farmed, organically farmed, single block planted in 1950, . Soil: Deep alluvial granitic sands. Elevation: 330m. 13.1% Alc.
 
Tasting notes: Raspberry and rosewater meets cherry cola. Exotic light spices, minerals and granite. Equally red fruited to savoury to mineral. The wine bounces between the three with the time and place dictating any dominance of either.  Not your classic juicy red fruits here. At the core, brilliant dry and organically farmed Grenache at altitude on very deep alluvial granitic sands. The wine has presence, depth and tension. Somewhat Nebbiolo-like. 74yo vines.
